In an effort to help with the fuel shortage, Soldiers from 1st Battalion, 14th Cavalry Regiment, attached to the 2nd Brigade Combat Team, 1st Cavalry Division, in cooperation with the Iraqi national police, distributed kerosene to the residents of the Al-Hadher neighborhood after conducting a joint cordon and search operation in the area Jan. 18.
