A pair of U.S. Army soldiers leave from their shift at an improved ribbon bridge outside of, Combat Outpost Payne, May 12. Though the U.S. Army was primarily responsible for erecting the bridge, maintaining and managing it has become a joint effort. A half dozen Marine combat engineers, from Marine Wing Support Squadron 272, based out of Marine Corps Air Station New River, N.C., teamed up with their U.S. Army counterparts to lend a hand with the bridge's upkeep.
