Corpsman Hit by Sniper in Albu Hyatt, Iraq

A Corpsman with 2nd Battalion, 3rd Marines is struck by accurate sniper fire while on patrol in Albu Hyatt, Iraq, The rest of his squad is then pinned down waiting for QRF by that same sniper.


Urban warfare can be hell. Every window in that three-dimensional environment presents an equal level of threat while you are on patrol. The Marines and Sailors of 2nd Battalion, 3rd Marines learned this lesson while on their deployment to the Haditha Triad of Iraq in 2006.


The Corpsman that is filming in this video was struck by a sniper. His name is Doc Vasquez, and he was a member of the Weapons Company for 2nd Battalion, 3rd Marines. This incident occurred on one of the very first patrols in Albu Hyatt, and was pretty much their introduction to a seven-month kinetic deployment in the Haditha Triad area of Iraq.
