Marines, Afghan Army Conduct Clearing Mission in Trek Nawa During Operation Mako
Gunnery Sgt. Chris Denham, the company gunny for India Company, 3rd Battalion, 3rd Marine Regiment, watches as the rocket from his light anti-tank weapon closes in on a compound used by enemy fighters during a firefight in Trek Nawa, Afghanistan, while participating in Operation Mako, Sept. 21, 2010. “The only thing louder than the back blast of the rocket was the Marines cheering,” said Capt. Francisco X. Zavala, the India Company commander. Mako was a one-day clearing mission to disrupt enemy activity. Denham is from Millbrook, Ala.
