    A soldier in combat gear and helmet is positioned in the turret of a tan/desert-colored armored military vehicle, likely a HMMWV (Humvee) variant. The vehicle is equipped with a mounted machine gun and camouflage netting draped over the turret area. The scene appears to be on a road in an arid, urban environment consistent with Middle Eastern deployment.

    Spc. Neil Brinson, a cavalry scout from Methuen, Mass., gets a view of Baghdad's Abu T'shir from the gunner's seat of an M1151 Humvee while providing line of sight security for the Soldiers of his platoon during a combined patrol, Oct. 12, 2008, in the Rashid District of southern Baghdad. Soldiers of Comanche Troop conduct operations in the predominately Shia community 24 hours-per-day to assist Iraqi security forces providing security and stability to the estimated 75,000 Iraqi citizens in Abu T'shir.
