U.S. Marines and sailors serving with Delta Company,

U.S. Marines and sailors serving with Delta Company, 1st Light Armored Reconnaissance Battalion, sort through mail and care packages during a late-night delivery here March 25, 2012. Mail isn’t delivered daily in one of the most southern U.S. outposts in Afghanistan, so all available Marines pitch in to make sure the mail gets sorted into corresponding squads and is distributed correctly. First LAR is currently assigned to Regimental Combat Team 5, 1st Marine Division (Forward), which works in partnership with the Afghan National Security Forces and the Afghan government to conduct counterinsurgency operations. First LAR is based aboard Marine Corps Base Camp Pendleton, Calif.
