Description
English: Lance Cpl. Brandon M. Mitchell and other combat engineers with Company C, 1st Combat Engineer Battalion, sweep for weapons caches near Lake Thar Thar, Iraq, Jan. 8, 2006. The Marines were part of Operation Long Horn, a company-sized mission with 3rd Battalion, 1st Marine Regiment to gather intelligence on a relatively unknown 2,400 square kilometer area of open desert and small villages. Marine combat engineers from Company C have discovered more than 500 weapons caches in the area, the most discovered by a single unit in the massive western-part of Al Anbar Province. The unearthed caches, found over the past six months during the unit's deployment to Iraq, contained a variety of explosives and ordinance, ranging from bullets, to anti-tank mines and artillery and tank rounds. The explosives are used by enemy forces to make roadside bombs - commonly called 'improvised explosive devices' - the number one killer of Coalition Forces in Iraq in the past year. Mitchell is a New London, Wis. native.
