    Lance Cpl. Matthew J. Messer, from Brownstown, Mich., a motor vehicle operator with Combat Logistics Battalion 8, 2nd Marine Logistics Group (Forward), poses for a picture next to the battalion sign, June 26, 2011, aboard Camp Leatherneck, Afghanistan. Messer is currently recovering from surprisingly minor injuries after his truck hit an improvised explosive device, which sent the turret flying through the air with him inside, landing a few feet from the truck.
