Synopsis: In June 2004, with the military reeling from an acute doctor shortage, Richard Jadick volunteered to accompany the First Battalion, Eighth Marine Regiment (the 1/8) to Iraq. Four days after the birth of his daughter, he shipped out. And when his unit was ordered to take the city center in the Battle of Fallujah, Jadick found himself in hell. But instead of letting the wounded come to him, he went to the wounded, setting up a makeshift emergency room in the middle of the battlefield.
