Supply routes for Stabilization Force (SFOR), Personnel have to be in good condition to allow freedom of movement in Bosnia-Herzegovina. Many bridges are downgraded by Stabilization Force (SFOR), Engineers due to various safety reasons. A bridge in Doboj, failed an inspection due to heavy traffic flow. The solution to the problem is the Mabey and Johnson Bridge which is to be built by the Hungarian Engineering Contingent. The project has been on going since September and is expected to be completed November 21, 1998. Today the Hungarians latched decking sections on the Bridges skeleton that will enable travel across the Bosnia river

More than 60 Marines from MTACS-18, Marine Air Control Group 18, 1st Marine Aircraft Wing, III Marine Expeditionary Force, hiked from Iwo To Field to the top of Mount Suribachi on Iwo Jima as part of the unit’s professional military education program May 25. The Battle of Iwo Jima, which took place between Feb. 19 and March 26, 1945, is among the most famous in the Corps’ history and was made famous world-wide by Joe Rosenthal’s Pulitzer-prize winning photograph of the flag-raising at Mount Suribachi.
