Don't know the terrain (check)
Enemy does very well (check)
Go in with civilians (check)
Go in without backup close by (check)
Make sure you will be in confined spaces (check)



PSHHHHHH! What could go wrong?!


Too bad CNN didn't get their way. If so Hillary could have asked ISIS not to do that and promise they never do. Problem would have been solved!

That was an extremely intense and terrifying 20+ hours for that reporter.

Not much training is there? What sucks is the guys aren't properly trained and thrown into those situations.

Lara Logan is another crazy one. She was the one gang raped in Egypt but was ready for work right after. Stories from other Marines I knew said they didnt believe reporting was her primary job. More like an operative doubling as a reporter.

Reporters see some shit but I dont think you get nerves of steel like that.

Started in Baghdad out of Camp Taji then moved to Camp Warhorse in the Diyala River Valley 2007-2008

We started off in Speicher, went to Summerall, back to Speicher, then took over Anaconda's battle space, O'Ryan, Paliwoda, and spent two weeks in Taji.
