AR RAMADI Iraq (June 17, 2005) – An enemy rocket cuts through the night’s sky here while Marines with 1st Battalion, 5th Marine Regiment battle insurgents. Marines with Company A’s 2nd and 3rd Platoons were conducting a search mission when they were called on to provide security for a platoon of Company C Marines who hit an IED. The Marines set up lookouts on rooftops a few hundred yards from the attack seen. They remained in their surveillance positions for more than two hours. Photo by: Cpl.
