CAMP TAJI, Iraq -

 
Racing Heroes Tour participants (Jeremy Mayfield, Erica Enders, Clay Millican, and Phil Burkart) visit sunny Camp Taji to sign autographs and meet with Soldiers and civilians here May 10. "I didn't have to come here for any sponsor or publicity. I wanted to come here and see Soldiers; to see and experience what you guys do everyday," said Mayfield. "It has been an experience of a lifetime and I am glad to have done it." (U.S. Army photo by Sgt. Jennifer Schweizer, 1st Sust. Bde., PAO, in support of MND-B)
