Gripping video of an Iraq war veteran
 

In 2004, the US Marines launched an assault that neutralized a very large pocket of resistance in the Iraqi town of Fallouja. This photo became famous as a symbol of that experience:

Regardless of where you stand on this conflict, I hope we can all agree that post-conflict services for our veterans need more focus and assistance.

It goes to show you what this country is truley about! An much respect to the Marine...UHRA!
