Summary

Description
English: Interpreter Malmoddi Nasir explains to an Afghan man how he will be paid for digging irrigation ditches along Route 515, Jan. 21, in Delaram District, Farah province, Islamic Republic of Afghanistan. Dozens of local Afghans showed up to work on the project, while the Afghan national police provided security. The project will ensure that local crop fields have sufficient water, increasing their output. Marines with 3rd Battalion, 8th Marine Regiment (Reinforced), and Combat Logistics Battalion 3 recently completed Operation Gateway III along Route 515 in southern Afghanistan. The operation was a strategically planned effort to clear the route of deadly improvised explosive devices laid by insurgents and provide an alliance presence. CLB-3 is the logistics combat element and 3/8 is the ground combat element of Special Purpose Marine Air Ground Task Force - Afghanistan.
