MOSUL, Iraq - Stryker brigade Lt. Col. Gordie Flowers went into a neighborhood of concrete block tenements near sundown Thursday to meet and pay his respects to Ali Unas, the father of a man troops shot to death two days earlier.

The battalion commander from Fort Lewis tried to make things right with the Iraqi family, bringing personal condolences and $1,000 in restitution.
