Sommario/riassunto

Senior NCO MSG Dwight P. Dooley recounts his experiences of the War in Iraq when stationed there as part of the 101st "Screaming Eagles Airborne Division between 09/20/2005 - 05/18/2006.This paper explains the different experiences and the similarities I experienced as First Sergeant in Crusher & Hatchet Company, 1-187TH Infantry Regiment. Both companies presented completely different experiences but they were equally satisfying. My rifle company was a company known for its rough around the edges attitude and for its ability to eliminate any opposing threat. My headquarters company was known for its ability to figure things out and apply a logical and methodical approach to everything. These two companies were completely different in nature, but equal in their abilities to accomplish any given task.
