Shane Rauh of Baton Rouge, La.,(center), with the Louisiana Army National Guard's 225th Engineer Brigade of Pineville, La., stands in front of the more than 40-foot tall oil storage container located at Al Daura oil refinery in southeastern Baghdad, March 30. Protecting the refinery's operations is a vital step in stabilizing the increasing production of oil in Iraq. At the request of Lt. Gen. Abboud, the senior Iraqi commander for Baghdad, the force protection section of the 1st Cavalry Division and the 225th have started security assessments to strengthen defenses for one of Iraq's largest oil refineries.
