Just as Somalia (Blackhawk Down) defined a generation of Army Rangers, Fallujah created a special breed of Marine for the 21st Century; one schooled in intense, hand-to-hand combat and urban warfare unlike anything that's engaged the U.S. military since Vietnam. With exclusive, in-depth interviews with the soldiers who took part in the missions, The Fight for Fallujah, chronicles the intense 2004 insurgent attacks and military operations in Fallujah which defined a new era of military engagement in Iraq. The special profiles the height of the conflict, when insurgents assailed four private contractors, examines the subsequent U.S. and British operations that sought to regain control of the city and showcases the courageous stories of those involved.
