III Corps command sergeant major visits COB Speicher

Command Sergeant Major Arthur L. Coleman, the command sergeant major of III Corps and Fort Hood, presents Pfc. Eferoghene Oghre, a medic with Task Force Odin, with a coin at Contingency Operating Base Speicher, near Tikrit, Iraq, Aug. 10. Private First Class Oghre scored 402 on his physical fitness test on the extended scale. His quick reaction helped sustain a Soldier with a head injury until the Soldier could be transported to a medical facility.  Earlier that day, Command Sgt. Maj. Coleman met with Task Force Marne sergeants major in the area.  He gave words of encouragement for the units to continue excelling at their missions. “This division has helped [the Army] take out 32 of 40 Al Qaeda members, including the number one financier. We started with 500 Forward Operating Bases and bases. We’re down to 94 today.” (U.S. Army photo by Sgt. Ry Norr
