    Trusting the gear: Engineers walk away from attack

    Tacoma, Wash. native, Sgt. Troy Bannister, a personal security detail mechanic assigned to the 227th Engineer Company attached to Headquarters Support Company, 46th Engineer Battalion, 225th Engineer Brigade, inspects the fluids in his MRAP on Camp Liberty, April 28. After being attacked, April 25, the Soldiers have more confidence in their equipment and their vehicles. "I think if the armor wouldn't have been there, it would have penetrated farther than it did and hurt us all," said Bannister. "I got a lot of trust and a lot of faith that the armor works."
