Operation Provide Classroom Comfort was the initiative of Major
Mark Sherkey '95 who helped rebuild several Iraqi schools during his
time in Mosul.  With the help of the athletic department and other
groups on campus, Alpha Company cadets collected $25,000 worth of school supplies at the Boston College game, all now on the way to Iraq.  Here, Cadets Erin Wilkins, Jennifer Stickler, and Emily Kirsch man the southwest stadium gate.

Major Mark Sherkey was on campus to help with the collection
and is shown here talking to the Alpha Company cadets prior to the game.
