Bundles of Iraqi money are stacked in Rawah, Iraq, June 10 for Hachem Aftan Alsherji, who works for the Al Batra'a company, to count before he officially receives his payment for the contract work he and his company have completed on the bank and courthouse in the city of Rawah. The payments are usually given in installments depending on the size of the project. The courthouse and bank are being refurbished before being turned back over to the local government. The buildings were previously used as a post by Coalition forces. After they were demilitarized, Marines with Civil Affairs Team 5 put together a project to have the buildings repaired so they could once again be used to serve the people of Rawah.
