Ambush in Samarra

by Paul J Cella

I’ve been remiss in not mentioning this before. My friend Jeff Emanuel, formerly of Air Force special forces and veteran of the war in Iraq, went back to Iraq earlier this year to do some of the most extensive embedded reporting by anyone, anywhere.

As I have said elsewhere: it is the kind of thing that reminds us that not everything in war is wicked.
