Matthew Nicholl, platoon leader and native of Lawrence, Kan., with Company D, 1st Battalion, 64th Armor Regiment. "The biggest thing we are going to do for this muhallah (neighborhood) is give 75 guys jobs; because if they're not working for us, they're working for other guys."_ [1]: http://www.blackanthem.com/News/iraqi-freedom/Iraqis-step-up-at-volunteer-drive12712.shtml
