MOSUL, Iraq - Food packages were given out to families by Soldiers of 3rd Scorpion Regiment, 6th Brigade, 2nd Division, Iraqi army, during a good-neighbor mission in the Hay Altanak neighborhood of Mosul, Iraq, Nov. 24.

"In this area most of the people are poor," said Maj. Hussien Abraham, executive officer, 3rd Scorpion Regiment, 6th Brigade, 2nd Division, Iraqi army.
