Ride along with the Bulls of 1st Squadron, 2nd SCR as they move in, dismount, breach and search a house looking to disrupt an IED-making cell in Sadr City. Again I ask...look easy?
Here is the context before you grab your gear and hop a ride...and don't forget, this is all filmed through night vision technology.

Thank You for sharing this video. My son is with the 1/2. SPC Kris Davis. He was in this video for just a second, the time was 1:14. I didn't understand what he was saying but that was him. It's good to see them in action. I just pray that they All Stay Safe.

Remember way back when the first war that regular folks like us saw in real time was Viet Nam? Who ever thought that so many years later WE would be embedded with our soldiers. Thanks for giving us the opportunity to share some of their experiences. Debra, glad you got a glimpse of Chris.
Debra - way cool ;-)
Glad Kris was in the video...you made my day ;-)

thanks for posting this! my husband is with Bull company 1/2 and it makes me proud of him and all our guys over there to see videos like this!
Thank you. My son is SFC Jason Kerns. Although I didn't get to see him, it's good to at least have some news about what they are doing. Our "free" Country has a news blackout of sorts from over there, and the average American would rather not think about Iraq, as long as they have no loved ones in harms way. I want our boys to know that they are not forgotten. Please post more on the "Bulls". Thanks again.
