    A U. S. Marine Mine Resistant Ambush Protected vehicle clears the road to the drop zone at Forward Operating Base Edinburgh, the logistics hub for Northern Helmand province, Oct 3, 2011. The route to the drop zone is being cleared so a team of Marines can collect food rations recently airdropped by a C-130 Hercules. Aerial delivery of food and water allows Marines to get some critical supplies without having to rely on risky ground convoys.
