additional pictures as of 9.21.2004

There are several pictures up at www.beerforsoldiers.com . Sadly, we can't actually buy them beer presently (no alcohol in Iraq), but any contributions will go towards a welcome home party when their tour is up. The group is from a rifle company - C Company, 1st Battalion, 503rd Infantry (Air Assault) (aka, 1-503rd for short). Click on the "Iraq Pictures" link on the left side of the page, and be sure to click on the "next picture" to view all of them.

Apparantly, the brigade (or at least a subset) is based at Camp Habbaniyah near Ramadi. A description, maps and aerial photos of the base prior to the arrival of the 2BCT are at globalsecurity.org.

A detailed, high-resolution map of the Ramadi region is found at Humanitarion Information Center in Iraq.
