Navy Hospitalman George Ziekowski, a corpsman with 1st Battalion, 7th Marine Regiment, watches the setting sun after another day of transporting the battalion commander through northwestern Al Anbar Province near the Iraq-Syria border June 3, 2006. Marines from 1st Battalion, 7th Marine Regiment's Personal Security Team are responsible for transporting the battalion's commander, Lt. Col. Nicholas F. Marano, through the battalion's area of operations along the Euphrates River in northwestern Al Anbar Province. The team's job is cut and dry - provide maximum security for the battalion's top brass. The team consists of a handful of armored humvees with a variety of infantry weapons, to include heavy machine guns and anti-armor weapons. While most U.S. Marine Personal Security Teams are composed of infantrymen, Marano's Personal Security Team is comprised mostly of "support" Marines - administrative clerks, communications technicians, and other "non-infantry"-type occupations. Ziekowski, 24 is from Detroit, Mich. (Photo by Cpl. Antonio Rosas)
