- Summary
- Wright rode into Iraq on March 20, 2003, with a platoon of First Reconnaissance Battalion Marines, the Marine Corps' special operations unit whose motto is "Swift, Silent, Deadly." These highly trained and highly motivated First Recon Marines were the leading unit of the American-led invasion force. Wright wrote about that experience in a three-part series in Rolling Stone that was hailed for its evocative, accurate war reporting
