U.S. Army Sergeant Bruno Sicilia from Fort Hood, Texas of the 2-82 Field Artillery, 3rd Brigade, 1st Cavalry Division, goes on one of his last patrols before heading back to the United States from Camp Adder on December 4, 2011 in Nasiriyah, Iraq. The Army continues to send its soldiers and equipment home as the base is prepared to be handed back to the Iraqi government later this month. Camp Adder is one of the few bases remaining that the United States controls as America's military continues its pullout of the country by the end of this year, after eight years of war and the overthrow of Saddam Hussein.
