    HUSAYBAH, Iraq - Sgt. Morrison from 3rd Squad, 2d Platoon, India Company, 3rd Battalion, 6th Marines looks into a crater from a detonated mine during Operation Steel Curtain. The intent of Operation Steel Curtain is to restore Iraqi sovereign control along the Iraq-Syria border and destroy the al Qaeda in Iraq terrorists operating throughout the Al Qa'im region. The towns of Husaybah and Karabilah were cleared earlier in the operation which began Nov. 5. and permanent Iraqi-U.S. presence has been established. (Official U.S. Marine Corps photo by Cpl.
