Sgt. 1st Class Richard Webb, 76th Infantry Brigade Combat Team, I-BIZ Asphalt project officer, poses with local Iraqi asphalt workers Oct. 7, 2008, following a ribbon-cutting ceremony for a new asphalt plant at Joint Base Balad, Iraq. Webb, a native of Worthington, Ind., played a crucial role in fortifying the plant's location on post by adding concrete barriers and razor wire around the perimeter and removing tons of debris from the landscape.
