    Lance Cpl. Steven T. Wise, a heavy equipment operator with Combat Logistics Company 111, Combat Logistics Battalion 1, 1st Marine Logistics Group helps guide a 10,000 pound T-wall in to place at the Government Center in Ramadi, Aug. 21, 2008. The HE operators installed 50 concrete walls throughout the compound to add additional protection for the U.S. troops and civilians who work there. "The T-walls we are installing today will block the view of buildings that surround the Government Center in the case of an enemy sniper," said Cpl. Chris R. Yohe, HE operator with CLC-111. "The barriers hide the main walkways that are constantly being used within the center."
