As the sun crests the horizon, 1st Lt. Erik Rekedal, a platoon leader with A Troop, 5th Squadron, 4th Cavalry Regiment, 2nd Advise and Assist Brigade, 1st Infantry Division, United States Division-Center, and a White Bear Lake, Minn., native, guides soldiers in a Humvee along a congested road while on a reconnaissance mission in Iraq, May 18. Members of the Iraqi Security Forces and U.S. forces have built strong relationships with many in the area, which has lead to aid in tracking down insurgent activity. (U.S. Army photo by 2nd Lt.
