It?s no easy task managing a high-volume container full of food or the equipment that moves it. On May 17, 2006, Lance Cpl. Chad J. Anderson, a 22-year-old native of Superior, Wisc., does just that as he and the rest of 3rd Platoon conducted a supply convoy for Marines serving with Iraqi Security Forces on the outskirts of Fallujah, Iraq. Since arriving in late February, the Marines have conducted more than 42 convoys, averaging one every other day. Most convoys here are supply orientated, delivering much needed food and equipment to Marines spread throughout the region.
