U.S. Army Staff Sgt. Shaun M. Thomas of Stafford, Conn., mortar section leader with Company B, 1st Battalion, 102nd Infantry Regiment, Task Force Iron Gray, carries a support beam across the construction site of a new living quarters hut at Combat Outpost Najil in eastern Afghanistan's Laghman province. His civilian job is assistant construction manager for a firm that builds hotels. The Connecticut National Guard unit has put the civilian skills of its Soldiers to work helping build up the base during their spare time, thereby allowing U.S. Army engineering assets to be used elsewhere.
