1st Lt. Shannon Newell (front center) and her squad stand beside the ASV that was lifted out of a ditch with the help of local Iraqis.

Interesting that the date of the article was 22 May.

They sure look clean. That little LT looks like a handful. Used to be they made all the male 2LT's serve a year in the Infantry before they could go to their branch school. They ought to bring that back, and send all the female 2LT's to the MP Corps. Maybe that way Patriot Maintenance Company Commanders can learn vital leadership skills.

Can anyone ID the weapons the two on the right are carrying? I assume they're M4's but they don't look quite right.
