    Sgt. Eric Currier, combat engineer, and Lance Cpl. Bryan Gillis, a drafting and surveying engineer, twist metal wire to secure rebar rods to a support cage Sept. 18. Currier and Gillis are with Engineer Operations Company, Marine Wing Support Squadron 172, Marine Wing Support Group 17, 1st Marine Aircraft Wing, III Marine Expeditionary Force, and have been conducting an engineering civil action project, the Bangladesh Interoperability Program, in coordination with the government of Bangladesh and elements of the Bangladesh armed forces division. The Marines and Bangladeshi are halfway through expanding a school. Gillis said working with the Bangladeshi has been an experience. “We like to make work fun and at first, the Bangladeshi didn’t seem the same way,” said Gillis. “But now, they are joking along with us, teaching us words and joking right back with us.”
