Hampstead, NC, 15 September 2009
On the 20th of March, 2003, the United States and its allies launched Operation Iraqi Freedom and invaded Iraq with the purpose of overthrowing the totalitarian regime of Saddam Hussein. On March 21st the 3rd ID was making good time into enemy territory using Highway 1. Tallil airbase (in name only, as the airbase had not been used to fly aircraft since Desert Storm) became the objective for the 3rd, as Tallil was not only near the intersection of Highway 1 and 8 (two important supply routes) but was also home to the Iraqi 11th Infantry Division's headquarters. Now ProSIM Company puts you in command of the 1st Battalion, 15th Infantry as the assault for Tallil airbase begins with Episode One of March to Baghdad!
