Lt. Col. Dale Buckner (right) and Command Sgt. Maj. Edward Parker, the command team for Division Special Troops Battalion, 4th Infantry Division, led the Soldiers of DSTB through the battalion's second deployment as the lead element of Multi-National Division - Baghdad in support of Operation Iraqi Freedom 07-09.
