Children from a village close to Joint Base Balad Anaconda stop to smile for the camera while "Redlegs" from the 2nd Battalion, 320th Field Artillery Regiment, 1st Brigade Combat Team, 101st Airborne Division (Air Assault), conduct a combat security patrol nearby. The artillerymen from the 2-320th FAR have been conducting "Operation Balls DiMaggio" since June 18; the operation is a full-spectrum combat operation aimed at interdicting weapons trafficking, capturing munitions financiers, limiting indirect-fire attacks, and other insurgent activity, in vicinity of the JBBA.
