‘All hell broke loose’ — ambushed Marine carried wounded to safety, fired at the enemy with his free arm
By: J.D. Simkins   1 day ago
Lance Corporal Todd Corbin was driving a 7-ton for Third Battalion, Twenty-Fifth Marines on May 7, 2005, when word came down that an nearby platoon had come under intense fire along the Euphrates River near Haditha, Iraq.
A quick reaction force comprised of Corbin’s 7-ton truck, three Humvees and two tanks took off to support their fellow Marines and attempt to block the insurgents' escape route.
As they closed in on the firefight location, Corbin and the members of the QRF noticed the eerie absence of civilians.
