A Soldier assigned to 2nd Brigade Combat Team, 10th Mountain Division, stands guard near the Arch of Ctesiphon, one of the oldest free-standing arches in the world, during a site assessment mission, Nov. 8, in Salmon Pak, Iraq, located in the Ma'dain region outside Baghdad. Built by the Parthian Persians in the sixth century, the arch spans 75 feet and is 110 feet high, and is built entirely of baked brick. U.S. and Iraqi officials discussed plans to improve the grounds surrounding the arch in order to attract tourism and restore national pride.
