    Photos of Marines with 1st Battalion, 2nd Marine Regiment on amphibious assault vehicles, during the battle of An Nasariyah, March 2003, line the walls of the headquarters building. “One of the things that absolutely impressed me was that this was their first combat – my first combat – and you could see that [the Marines] were doing just what they were trained to do,” Sosa mentioned. “It was good to see the effect of months and years of training and I was very proud of every single one of them that day. The Marines did what you would expect of them, they continued to stay focused on the mission. They got the job done.”
