    Task Force 34 Soldiers were guided through the ruins of Ur by Dhaif, the grandson of one of the site's excavators. A Unit Ministry Team from Task Force 34, the Combat Aviation Brigade stationed at Joint Base Balad, Iraq, took a group of their Soldiers to the Ur archeological site located just outside of a coalition Forward Operating Base in Tallil in southern Iraq, Jan. 25. The highlights of this religious and cultural training event included climbing the Ziggurat of Ur, stepping through ancient temple archways, entering royal tombs, and walking through Abraham's reconstructed home.
