    Marines with 1st Air-Naval Gunfire Liaison Company and U.K. soldiers with A Squadron, Royal 9th/12th Lancers, prepare for a patrol in Nahr-e Saraj District, Helmand province, Aug. 9. After coming within 300 yards of an insurgent compound, the Marines and soldiers began to take enemy fire which lasted for more than 30 minutes. ANGLICO Marines called for air support and coordinated an Hellfire missile strike on the compound to allow ground forces to maneuver out of the area unharmed.
