AR RAMADI, Iraq (April 8, 2005) - Sergeant Brian S. Foster, squad leader, 1st Squad, 4th Platoon, Company A, 1st Battalion, 5th Marine Regiment, takes a knee and provides security next to a street vendor in the city's marketplace. The 27-year-old from Virginia Beach, Va., and other warriors with 4th Platoon, Company A, 1st Battalion, 5th Marines, patrolled the marketplace in an effort to familiarize themselves with their area of operations and determine how the local Iraqis feel about their presence in the area. The Marines also handed out positive and anti-insurgent propaganda to the Iraqis and searched for insurgents and things out of the ordinary during the two-hour operation. Photo by Cpl. Tom Sloan
