2nd BCT Media Links

This blog centralized media links for the 2nd Brigade Combat Team, 2nd Infantry Division during its deployment from Korea to Iraq as part of OIF 2.5, Aug 2004 - July 2005. It was updated daily over the year, with only sporadic updates since. It is left on-line for historical interest (although many links are likely now broken) and as a tribute to the 2nd BCT servicemen who lost their lives serving in Iraq. May they rest in peace and may their legacy be forever remembered.

video-montage of Marines in Ramadi

A widely read article in the Philadelphia Inquiry (Free Registration Required) graphically recounted a 4.6.2004 ambush on a Marine Company, Echo Company, in Ramadi in which 10 Marines were killed. A powerful video-montage of photographs and commentary from the journalist, David Swanson, is available here, along with other articles and photographs of the area.

Note that, besides registering, you will probably have to install or update your Real Media player to view the video. It is worth the effort.

As a follow-up, Echo Company returned home to Camp Pendleton, CA on 9.26.2004.
