U.S. Air Force Master Sgt. Reid Burns, (left), assigned 1st Expeditionary Civil Engineering Group, uses a dynamic cone pentrometer during runway repair operations at Qayyarah West airfield, Iraq, Oct. 9, 2016. The device tests the strength of the soil before concrete can be poured to repair the runway. The Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant (ISIL) destroyed the runway by using heavy machinery and explosives to disrupt Coalition forces from gaining control in the area. . A Coalition of regional and international nations have joined together to enable Iraqi forces to counter ISIL, reestablish Iraq’s borders and re-take lost terrain thereby restoring regional stability and security.
