Lance Cpl. Chase Pinkerman, a Columbus, Ohio, native and an infantryman with Echo Company, takes times to read his bible. Marines deployed in support of Operation Enduring Freedom experience a life much different than they are used to back in the America. Something as simple as reading a book helps take their mind off the stresses of combat. Pinkerman flipped through the pages of scripture for his daily devotional moments after Marines at Afghan Uniformed Police security post-5 in the village of Regay returned from a quick reaction force mission. The Marines and sailors with Echo Company, 2nd Battalion, 4th Marine Regiment, maintained quick reaction force elements at all of the newly emplaced Afghan Uniformed Police security posts in the southern Musa Qal’eh dry riverbed. The service members partnered with the Afghan National Security Forces during Operation Double Check to promote legitimate governance and security within the Musa Qal’eh district by setting up new AUP security posts in the area.::r::::n::
