Sgt. John Clinard, left, and Jay Liske, right, and other soldiers from Battle Company, 173rd Division carry the body of Sgt. Larry Rougle of Utah, towards the medevac helicopter along the Abas Ghar ridgeline in the mountains in Korengal Valley, Kunar province, Afghanistan on Oct. 23, 2007. Rougle was killed less than an hour prior while their unit, a scout team, was standing guard at the furthest tip of a ridge, and was ambushed by the Taliban. Two other soldiers, Sgt. Kevin Rice and Spc. Carl Vandeberge were shot and wounded, and were medevaced out for surgery minutes before. The soldiers were on a battalian-wide mission to look for caves and weapons caches and known anti-coalition leaders
