Ambush Alley: The Most Extraordinary Battle of the Iraq War by Tim Prichard
Requirements: ePUB Reader, 1.5MB
Overview: On March 23, 2003, US Marines from the 1st Marine Expeditionary Force were caught in the most extraordinary battle of Operation Iraqi Freedom.
What started off as a routine manoeuvre to capture two bridges in the town of Nasiriyah turned into a 24-hour-long nightmare urban battle in which 18 young marines lost their lives and over 55 others were wounded. It was the single, heaviest loss suffered by the US military during the entire combat phase of the war. It all started going wrong when the marines came across a burnt out US Army convoy which had got lost and had been ambushed by Iraqi forces just outside of the city. This was the convoy from which Private Jessica Lynch was captured. In an attempt to rescue the unaccounted for Army personnel, the marines charged towards the city with a half baked plan, no knowledge of what lay ahead, but plenty of guts.
