A car travels through a puddle of water in a neighborhood of Baghdad Saturday, Oct. 2, 2004. In many areas, businesses and residences drain their water and sewage directly in the streets, creating pools of foul-smelling water. Part of the civil affairs mission of the Oregon Guard is to assess the neighborhoods and help resolve issues like open sewage, no garbage service or lack of electricity.
