COMBAT STORIES FROM Iraq

Shawn Patrick | 1st Reconnaissance Battalion - Marines

7:58   |   He had a good team in his Humvee. The Recon Marines were tearing around Iraq in open unarmored vehicles and team leader Shawn Patrick had men he could depend on. They were in the second vehicle when they ran into an ambush halfway across a bridge. Frantically, the convoy reversed and got out of there but he received a little lead souvenir.
