Marines in the Garden of Eden

On March 23 2003 in the city of An Nasiriyah Iraq members of the 507th Maintenance Company came under attack from Iraqi forces who killed or wounded twenty-one soldiers and took six prisoners including Private Jessica Lynch. For the next week An Nasiriyah rocked with battle as the marines of Task Force Tarawa fought Saddam''s fanatical followers street by street and building to building ultimately rescuing Private Lynch.
