RED HORSE Airmen support Army in southern Baghdad
Airman 1st Class Tyler Peterson cuts truss pieces for the roof of a tactical operations center June 22 at Forward Operating Base Kalsu, Iraq. Airman Peterson is a utilities journeyman with the 557th Expeditionary RED HORSE Squadron deployed from the 319th Civil Engineer Squadron at Grand Forks, N.D., and is originally from Great Falls, Mont. Airman Peterson and his fellow Rapid Engineer Deployable Heavy Operational Repair Squadron Engineers, or RED HORSE, Airmen are forward deployed from Balad Air Base, Iraq, and are tasked to build four tactical operations centers for the Army's 2nd Brigade combat team, 3rd Infantry Division headquartered here. The 2/3 ID is currently running operations out of tents. The RED HORSE unit, made up of Air Guard, Reserve and active-duty Airmen, was requested by the Army to come into this "Triangle of Death" location because of their self-suffiency and for the multiple skill sets they bring to a project.
