    With a final time just over four hours, Pfc. Terrance Jackson, supply specialist, Headquarters Support Company, 34th Infantry Division finishes running a marathon plus a few extra miles at Operating Base Basra, Nov. 28. Due to a miscommunication, Jackson, who has never before run more than 10 miles, ran almost 30 miles. "I had to finish it," he said. "I promised my wife that I'd finish a marathon while I was here."
