    The image shows U.S. Army personnel in ACU (Army Combat Uniform) digital camouflage pattern engaged in conversation. A soldier on the right appears to have significant facial scarring/burns and is wearing a black eye patch, suggesting he is a wounded veteran. The soldier on the left, identified by nametape as 'Johnson,' appears to be speaking with or addressing the injured soldier.

    Sgt. 1st Class Mike Schlitz (right) talks to Maj. Gen. John Johnson, Multi-National Corps-Iraq deputy commanding general of operations, after arriving in Baghdad Dec. 28. Schlitz is taking part in Operation Proper Exit, and will return to the place he was severely injured in 2007 in hopes of finding closure.
