Sgt. Mark A. Matice plays his bagpipes in front of the headquarters building, Dec. 15. Matice has been playing since 2007 in both Iraq and Afghanistan. He plays the pipes because, according to him, they bring people together for a fun time. A head injury left him unable to play the pipes as often as he would like because playing now gives him migraines, but Matice hopes his injuries will heal and allow him to play often again.
