    Sgt. Jesse Walden, chief scout with C Company, 3rd Light Armored Reconnaissance Battalion, fires a light anti-armor rocket at an insurgent fighting position in the Bahram Chah valley during Operation Rawhide II in Helmand province, Afghanistan, March 16. Throughout the four-day raid on the key insurgent trafficking hub on the Pakistan border, 3rd LAR Battalion Marines found themselves under periodic insurgent mortar and small arms fire. The fighters Walden engaged were using a cave a few hundred yards from a Marine position.
