Young Troop
YOUNG SOLDIER, MAN, CHILDREN AT GATE

     Soldiers guard the house run by the women's organization, the Organizacion Femenina Popular (OFP), in Comuna 7, a poor area of Barrancabermeja. The paramilitary have declared this women's group to be a military target and are attacking them because they provide social services to poor families, such as these children of families displaced by the violence.
