    U.S Army Sgt. Christopher Tunis, a native of St. Petersburg, Fla., assigned to Company A, 172nd Support Battalion, 172nd Infantry Brigade, Task Force Blackhawk, prepares parachute cord to be used in the rigging of a sling load Oct. 5, at Forward Operating Base Sharana. Tunis, using knowledge gained by repetition, measured the cord by memory to the proper length. Tunis and his fellow soldiers at the helicopter landing zone regularly prepare and ship many different types of loads on a daily basis.
