I WAS THERE!!!! IT WAS SO EPIC. Seeing the V-22's land escorted by 2 AH-1 Cobra's was so badass. I met all of these marines. I am pretty sure the medic had the helmet cam because i asked him why he had a camera on his helmet

@Dumpes It's a Navy Corpsmen. Pussy-ass Army has medics.

@SillyInfantry I just think its funny at what people have to say. If you really think about it, it's really not their fault. It's the lack of knowledge and or ignorance and yes we do alot of things that only less than 1% of our country men/women are willing to do. Thanks for your support.

@BlinkBass88

More like within the last couple months. Good luck on going corpsman, we love 'em!

[BlinkBass88]

@unmotomarine0351 Fair enough. They must have gotten back within the last year or two at most I'd guess if that's the case. I'm shaping up for the Navy myself, hopefully to become a Corpsman and eventually make an attempt for FMF.

@BlinkBass88

You wont find alot of info on currently deployed units for OPSEC reasons. 2/9 just came back not too long ago.

[BlinkBass88]

@unmotomarine0351 Oh I believe you I just couldn't find it, but I definitely take your word that they were in Afghanistan, I know most of the Helmand is occupied by the Marines at this time. I actually check icasualties pretty often. Really is a shame, all those names. A friend of mine's brother is on there. He was with 3/5 and got it in Fallujah.

[unmotomarine0351]

@BlinkBass88

Uh ok, well lets see, I had friends in 2/9 in a-stan, and my old unit replaced them, so its true. You can look on icasualties for the 2/9 Marines who didnt make it back.

[BlinkBass88]

@unmotomarine0351 Hmm I couldn't find any reports of their time in Afghanistan, not to say it isn't true, I just can't find it. And just because the province was turned over and certainly wasn't as hostile as it once was still doesn't mean they were in danger and didn't encounter some heavy situations, that entire theater of operations has plenty to go around for the men and women over there, shouldn't matter whether it's a hotzone or not. They went over there, did their job, that's what counts.
