HURRICANE POINT, Ramadi, Iraq - First Battalion, 5th Marine Regiment's 39-year-old commanding officer and Plano, Texas native, Lieutenant Col. Eric M. Smith, smiles at Staff Sgt. Robert D. Oehler, intelligence chief for Headquarters and Service Company, during Oehler's reenlisted ceremony held here March 6, 2005. The 28-year-old Jacksonville, Fla. Native, a Marine with almost a decade of dedicated service to the Corps, swore to devote another four years while in Iraq a second time in support of Operation Iraqi Freedom. Oehler collected a bonus of more than $10,000 that's tax-free because he reenlisted in Iraq, which the Department of Defense designated to be a tax-exclusion zone.
