Ten soldiers from the New Jersey Army National Guardā€™s 50th Infantry Brigade Combat Team, headquartered in Lawrenceville, N.J., were injured as a result of a lightning strike in their training area Monday night.
The security agreement between the U.S. and government of Iraq, which went into effect Jan. 1, was just one of many steps toward a safe and prosperous Iraq. March 20 marked another step, one that was both unexpected and unique.
Medics from Headquarters and Headquarters Battery of the 1st Battalion, 7th Field Artillery provided a half-dozen Soldiers of the Baghdad Brigade lifesaving skills training in the event they suffer casualties on the battlefield or get injured in an accident.
