Opis

Watching Over Us, Melinda Lambert's look at modern combat operations in Iraq, tells a realistically, raw photojournalistic account of our American soldiers in preparation for and at war. As a result of a successful military surge in Iraq, the commands have been able to reduce forces in theatre. In 2008, Washington State's 161 IN, was an integral part of that surge. Their involvement and fortitude allowed troops continual movement of personnel and supplies throughout the operational area. 161 provided an uninhibited ability to operate. By moving cargo with this kind of force, the enemy witnessed the Army's tenacity and desire to continue the fight. 161 repeatedly and relentlessly moved along some of the most dangerous roads int the world regardless of IED's, EFP's and the threat of being ambushed, which emphatically displayed their willingness to complete their mission.
