16 years ago, we crossed the LOD and did what we had seen in movies up to that point. We would soon find out on March 23, 2003, the movies were wrong. The battle of the bridges...An Nas. The details of this battle are still fresh in my mind. 19 Marines from C 1/2 were KIA, LAV's sank in the mud, A-10's doing gun runs. RIP Gunnery Sergeant Phillip Jordan, gone but never forgotten.




God Bless you Doc Fonseca,


You saved more lives that day than you know.
