Spc. Jeff Stewart takes the trash out at Patrol Base K-Wal in Shakarat, Iraq. His troop has gotten to know the locals by operating as street cops, emergency medical technicians and community organizers. They use sophisticated technology to track down bomb makers and hand out old-fashioned “wanted” posters that dangle $50,000 cash rewards for the arrest of high-level insurgents. They set up roadblocks, search cars for weapons and give residents “tip cards” with phone numbers. |
