Summary
Cpl. John A. Galvan, an assistant squad leader with Mine-Resistant, Ambush-Protected Company, 3rd Amphibious Assault Battalion, takes a knee by his unit logo poster he drew for his tents, as a show of unit pride when they first got to Marjah. “Col. Newman saw it, he liked it and he asked me if I could paint the Afghan flag as a favor to the governor,” said Galvan. Galvan cut the garrison-sized flag out of plywood, and his tools were a sponge, Q-tips and his fingers.
