    1st Lt. James "Mike" Gorman, a platoon leader with the 2nd Battalion, 320th Field Artillery Regiment, 1st Brigade Combat Team, 101st Airborne Division (Air Assault), checks out a young boy's arm after he had bruised it playing soccer with his schoolmates in Ad Dujayl, Iraq. 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 Joint Base Balad Anaconda. During the course of the operation, the "Balls of the Eagle" Battalion has been conducting 24-hour combat patrols in an effort to provide a long lasting effect on an ever improving security situation in the area.
