    Smile in Al Kut

    Smiling was the order of the day at the Alistikrar Primary School for Boys in Al Kut on March 5. This young Iraqi boy beams as he takes his backpack to show his friends. The gifts were donated as part of a comprehensive educational program by the Wasit Provincial Reconstruction Team, in the Wasit province. Elements of the 304th Civil Affairs Brigade are working closely with the local PRT to provide needed infrastructure and professional assessments of area schools and to distribute collected items. These Provincial Reconstruction Teams are spearheaded by the Department of State with support from civil affairs personnel and are designed to empower the local Iraqi private and public sectors. The 304th Civil Affairs Brigade is an Army Reserve brigade, composed of Warrior Citizen Soldiers from the Philadelphia area, and are part of the U.S. Army Civil Affairs and Psychological Operations Command (Airborne), headquartered at Fort Bragg, N.C.
