Paratroopers assigned to Company D, 1st Battalion, 505th Parachute Infantry Regiment, 3rd Brigade Combat Team, 82nd Airborne Division, Multi-National Division - Baghdad, use a concrete wall as cover as they provide support for Iraqi army soldiers in the tiny town of Shakat, Iraq, during Operation Mufa-Ja'ah, a combined air assault mission, July 31, in the Ma'dain region outside of eastern Baghdad. The combined operation was in order to seize potential weapons caches in the region and deny enemy forces the ability to store or smuggle weapons into Baghdad.
