    U.S. Army Sgt. 1st Class Marlon Crooks, of Reading, Pa., the platoon sergeant for the combat engineer Soldiers of Route Clearing Package-39, is examined and tested by the team's medic after a 150-pound improvised explosive device exploded during a recent mission to Combat Outpost Charkh . Augmented by two explosive ordnance Airmen, the RCP team reacted swiftly after the explosion to set up a 360-degree security cordon and checked for secondary explosive devices. During this mission, the Mine Resistant Armoured Protected vehicle and teamwork proved critical in saving the service members' lives.
