    Maj. Ali Dipour, battalion operations officer for the HHC 1/200th Infantry, is placing blocks under the encased pentaceratops fossil in order for bottle jack lifts to be fitted underneath. He works alongside Sgt. Alex Nocello, the HHC 1/200th Infantry Medical Platoon sergeant. These Soldiers along with seven other infantrymen work with volunteers from the New Mexico Museum of Natural History and Science and the BLM for roughly nine hours on Oct. 28 in order to prepare the fossil to be airlifted by New Mexico Army National Guard helicopters.
