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.

There are no media reports on the 2nd BCT or its area of operations today.

Our hearts go out to servicemen and women, contractors, and Iraqi National Guard soldiers killed and wounded in the Mosul dining facility attack. The Multi-National Force in Mosul is under the command of the 3rd Brigade, 2nd Infantry, based out of Ft. Lewis, Washington. Our hearts also go to all of the families as they deal with the uncertainties.
