U.S. Marines in Iraq

ABOUT THE BOOK
This book captures, in moving photographs, the day-to-day efforts of our Marines’ civil affairs work with the Iraqi people. These photos will touch your hearts as the actions they depict touched the hearts of those Iraqis who lived through the turmoil in al Anbar. Our American pride in the fighting prowess of our Marines is equally felt for their demonstrated compassion.

ABOUT THE AUTHOR
Lieutenant Colonel David A. Benhoff, a reservist with the Marine Corps History Division, deployed to Iraq in 2005 as a field historian with II Marine Expeditionary Force (Forward). During his tour, he traveled throughout the Multi-National Forces - West area of operations in al Anbar Province, recording history in the making. While the main focus of his mission was to conduct and record oral history interviews with Marines and collect historically relevant documents, he capitalized on his personal interest in photography to visually capture the experiences of both Marines and Iraqis as he traveled.
