Capt. James Geiger, company commander with Golf Company, 2nd Battalion, 8th Marine Regiment, Regimental Combat Team 7, shakes hands with Manaf, the Nawa District Governor at Forwarding Operating Base Geronimo, May 25, 2013. "Last deployment was all about (counterinsurgency) operations, supporting the local forces, and interacting with the people," said 1st Sgt. James Breland, a native of New Orleans and the company first sergeant with H&S Co. "This time the focus is on letting the forces operate on their own, supporting the Security Force Assistance Advisor Teams who are training the local forces, and more logistics operations as the (U.S) military transitions out of the country."
