Staff Sgt. Raymond Cotrell, from Zanesville, Ohio, Company A, 1-15th Infantry Regiment, provides security during a combat patrol through Salman Pak, April 16. Since April, Cotrell has seen significant improvement in Salman Pak's security. "Everyone knew when we first got here that there had been little to no coalition presence here," he said. "Since we've been here, I've seen Salman Pak improve tenfold. Contact rates have gone down. Improvised explosive device attacks have gone down. They are seeing their town improve and know that we are here to help them."
