US Army (USA) Soldiers from Charlie Company (C CO), TAC 1st Battalion, 17th Infantry Regiment (1/17th Infantry), 172nd Stryker Brigade Combat Team (SBCT), Ft. Wainwright, Alaska (AK), set up and prepare to fire 60mm illumination flares from the roof of an Iraqi Police station in Mosul, Iraq (IRQ). The illumination flares will brighten the city in hopes it will deny the terrorist cover of darkness and less likely to place Improvised Explosive Devices (IED) during Operation IRAQI FREEDOM.
