A view of the new Rustimiyah land bridge from the old bridge, Feb. 28. Iraqi national police with 3rd Battalion, 3rd Brigade, 1st NP Division, secured the old bridge so members of the 74th Engineer Company, from Fort Hood, Texas, stationed at Balad Air Base, could recover the Mabey Johnson bridge, a prefabricated structure covering a large blast hole left from the detonation of a vehicle-borne improvised explosive device last May.
