Soldiers from 3rd Brigade Combat Team, 4th Infantry
Summary
Soldiers from 3rd Brigade Combat Team, 4th Infantry Division prepare a 12 foot barrier for movement during a barrier emplacement operation in the Sadr City District of Baghdad, May 12, while an ABC News cameraman films the action. The barrier is part of the safe neighborhood plan to safeguard south Sadr City residents from terrorists and criminals, restore essential services and support economic growth. Multi-National Division - Soldiers and their Iraqi counterparts from the 11th Iraqi Army Division initially went into south Sadr City in late March to disrupt the enemy's use of the area as a firing point for rockets and mortars throughout Baghdad. Since the establishment of the wall, IA Soldiers distributed 3,400 food packs that can feed a family of five, conducted five medical operations treating over 2,500 Iraqi civilians, and established an Iraqi assistance center at a joint security station.
