9/6/2018 Echo in Ramadi FREE Symposium
Come aboard the USS Yorktown on Thursday, September 6 for “Echo in Ramadi” as panelists discuss the persistent and heroic efforts of Echo Company, 2nd Battalion, 4th Marines during the second Battle of Ramadi in support of the surge in 2006 and the impact of the battle on the men who fought, their families at home, and sympathetic Iraqis who helped the Americans. The symposium will be based on the book written by Echo Company Commander Major Scott Huesing, “Echo in Ramadi” – a ten-month snapshot of the battle on the ground in Ramadi and the evolution of tactics used on the battlefield.
The panelists for the symposium will bring a wealth of first-hand knowledge about the 2006 Battle of Ramadi and how it affected all who were involved – from the families at home, to anti-Al Qaeda Iraqis, and the Marines fighting on the ground.
