    U.S. cavalry scouts from ?1st Squadron, 7th Cavalry Regiment, 1st Brigade Combat Team, 1st Cavalry Division, and Iraqi policemen from the 1st Battalion, 2nd Brigade, 1st Federal Police Division, run to board a UH-60 Blackhawk helicopter after sweeping a stretch of the Baghdad-Diyala highway for improvised explosive devices. The combined force conducted three air insertions, all in clear view of the busy highway. One purpose of the mission was to deter insurgents by showing them how quickly and unexpectedly the combined force can arrive.
