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.

Pfc. Andrew M. Ward, of the 44th Engineer Battalion, was killed in Ramadi on 12.5.2004 when his unit was attacked by enemy forces using small arms fire. Pfc. Ward, of Kirkland, WA, was 25 years old.
