English: Lance Cpl. Jonathan C. Elkins, a basic metal worker with Combat Logistics Regiment 15, 1st Marine Logistics Group, tests a welding torch on Camp Taqaddum. Elkins, a 20-year-old native of Moorehead, Ky., was a part of seven-man team that successfully adapted humvee armor for a TRAM (Tractor, Rubber-tired, Articulated steering, Multipurpose.) The team was made up of Elkins, another welder, and mechanics. They were recognized at a ceremony by Brig. Gen. David G. Reist, 1st MLG�s commanding general, for their up-armament system. They created the system at the request of Col. David M. Richtsmeier, the commanding officer of 1st MLG (FWD).
