| "Bridges to Baghdad" tells the story of the "fighting Seabees" and their role in the Iraq War, and how they raised the bar of the legendary "Can Do!" tradition set by their World War II forefathers. During Operation Iraqi Freedom in 2003, the Seabees stormed into Iraq along side the First Marine Expeditionary Force (I MEF). The Seabees maneuvered, built, and fought their way to Baghdad. They advanced through one of the world’s harshest environments and against some of the fiercest adversaries they had encountered since Vietnam. An appendix provides a history of the Seabees to 1991. Complete with three full-color photo sections, endnotes, bibliography and index. |
