Meeting the locals

Lieutenant Hofkens participated in a provincial reconstruction team where he would go outside the wire and oversee the construction of schools and water treatment facilities. To do this job required traveling in convoys on a daily basis to make sure the government?s investment in Iraqi infrastructure was protected, he said. (photo was submitted by Lieutenant Hofkens)
