Description
English: Marines assigned to the Hawaii-based 3rd Battalion, 3rd Marine Regiment climb a hill during a patrol in Haditha, Iraq, June 25, 2006. 1st Lt. Rick Posselt, a 25-year-old from Crystal River, Fla., was leading Marines and Iraqi soldiers through Haditha, June 14, on a similar patrol when his platoon came under attack. Posselt put his life in danger when he ran into enemy gunfire to pull a wounded Marine, Cpl. Michael Estrella, to safety. Estrella later died of his wounds. Capt. Andy Lynch, India Company�s commanding officer, says Posselt will be recognized for his brave actions on the battlefield that day. The Hawaii-based Marine battalion, also known as �America�s Battalion,� arrived in March and is scheduled to depart Iraq this fall and be replaced by another Hawaii-based unit.
