Combined forces puts out bazaar fire, save lives, property in Paktika
The fire started when a local man over filled the gas tank on his motorcycle. The fuel spilled onto the hot engine and ignited, causing a chain reaction of explosions, said U.S. Army 1st Lt. Jon Degreeff, from Elk River, MN, 3rd Platoon, Company A, platoon leader. Locals fled the area as the combined security forces arrived to help control the blaze by removing flammable items from the area. ANA and A Company Soldiers also began digging a trench to contain the fire, caving in adjacent shops to prevent them from igniting other structures, and organizing a local ‘bucket brigade’ to help throw dirt on grass to stop flames from spreading any further, said Degreeff.

Bret Campbell returning to Austin Peay as assistant basketball coach
This is the second time Campbell has served as an Austin Peay assistant. He was an assistant to Dave Loos and later associate head coach from 1992-99. He then went to UT Martin as head coach, beginning in 1999, until his resignation in Summer 2009 after leading the Skyhawks to their first-ever OVC regular-season title. This past season he served as Director of Basketball Operations at Murray State. “I am excited about coming back to Austin Peay after spending seven years here previously,” Campbell said. “I think I know the University and the community well. First and foremost, I have such great respect for Dave Loos. No. 1, I think he is top coach in the OVC. Not only do I respect him as a coach, but he also is a very good friend. I look forward to working with him again in the basketball arena and helping improve Austin Peay basketball, keeping it at the top of the OVC.” «Read the rest of this article» Sections: Sports | 0 comments
Rakkasans give trees, help boost economyby U.S. Army Pfc. Chris McKenna 3rd Brigade Combat Team, Public Affairs
And in a country that is composed primarily of deserts and arid mountains, good lumber is hard to come by. Personnel from Headquarters and Headquarters Company, 3rd Brigade Combat Team have found a way to alleviate both problems – by harvesting 17 acres of olive trees and donating the wood to the Afghan government, June 29th. FOB Salerno’s once-scenic olive grove is a thing of the past, making way for a second dining facility to accommodate the influx of personnel connected with force expansion in Task Force Rakkasan’s battle space. ![]() Afghan contractors load trees into a dump truck after cutting them down June 29th, at Forward Operating Base Salerno, Afghanistan, preparing for FOB expansion. Nearly 17 acres of trees have been cut down and the wood is being handed over to the Khost Chief of Agriculture to auction it off to the people at a much lower rate than normal. The money raised from the sales will be added to the local government budget to care for the people of Afghanistan. (Photo by U.S. Army Pfc.
