Soldiers assigned to the 23rd Engineer Company, part of the 2nd Engineer Brigade home based at Joint Base Elmendorf-Richardson, salute during a redeployment ceremony at Buckner Physical Fitness Center. Nearly 100 U.S. Army Alaska soldiers returned home Thursday evening, March 14, from a nine-month deployment to the southern provinces of Afghanistan in support of Operation Enduring Freedom. During their deployment, the soldiers performed dangerous route-clearance missions to remove improvised explosive devices along often-used roads. The unit was featured in the National Geographic Channel's "Bomb Hunters: Afghanistan" and three-part Discovery Channel documentary "Heroes of Hell's Highway."
