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.

Articles 5.10.2005

The Stars & Stripes has an article on a South Korean woman who raised bout $1,000 worth of care-package good for 2nd BCT soldiers. Jin Hyun has worked with U.S. military personnel for 15 years and wanted to give support to the deployed soldiers. She eventually sent "instant Korean noodles and individual coffee packs" to members of Alpha Detachment, 509th Personnel Services Battalion, who are supporting the 2nd BCT Strike Force in Iraq.
