Marines Fix and Smash Insurgents Near Haditha
Published 3 years ago
Marines from Lima Company, 3rd Battalion, 25th Marines, engage and fix insurgents in the village of Cykla near Haditha before dropping a whole lot of hate on top of them.
This is one of the few times we have the full story from the Marines who were on the ground. Here's the full quote.
"This strike took place near Haditha in the village of Cykla, where insurgents were using buildings as safe houses and firing positions. Marines and Iraqi security forces were on patrol when insurgents armed with rocket-propelled grenades and small arms fired at them from three buildings. Three laser-guided bombs and one global positioning system-guided bomb successfully destroyed all three buildings and caused minimal collateral damage to the surrounding community."
