Infantrymen disrupt Taliban lethal aid in Helmand province


Afghan children gather and show thumbs up for a photo as Marines with Weapons Company, 1st Battalion, 7th Marine Regiment, pass through a village during a mission in Helmand province, Afghanistan, April 17. The company’s two-day mission was to disrupt lethal enemy aid and to search three compounds of interest in an area suspected of Taliban influence. The compounds were suspected to contain a homemade-explosive lab, a cache for narcotics and be home to local Taliban leadership.
