Sommario/riassunto

The film begins in summer 2002 with U.S. Central Command's plans for the possible invasion of Iraq and the creation of the Coalition Forces Land Component Command as the main ground command for the planned invasion. The film then covers the crossing of the berm, the seizure of Tallil Air Base, the battle for As Samawah, the fight for An Najaf, and the movement through the Karbala Gap. The film ends on 2 April with V Corps and I Marine Expeditionary Force preparing to move to the next objective on the way to Baghdad.
