Marines with Engineer Company, Combat Logistics Battalion 5-2, 1st Marine Logistics Group (Forward), reload the TRAMs (?Tractor, Rubber-tired, Articulated steering, Multi-purpose? vehicles) after successfully emplacing force-protection barriers for the Iraqi Army Sept. 27. Engineer Company is made up of Marines from at least 10 different specialties who display a wide range of technical skills. They build and repair roads, install force protection barriers and maintain utilities for outposts and vehicle checkpoints in and around Fallujah. The company works mostly at night, taking full advantage of the ?magic window? provided by the Iraqi curfew, said Chief Warrant Officer Anthony J. Reiter, commander of Operations Platoon.
