Christmas in Iraq
![]() The Marines of Charlie Company of the 3rd LAR Battalion decorated one of the LAVs with Chirstmas lights and a small Christmas tree to express their holiday spirit. I would like to salute my husband Capt. Mark Brown and the Marines of Charlie Company of the 3rd LAR Battalion currently stationed in Iraq. -- Deborah Brown of Yucca Valley, California
I am sure your husband will take care of my son who is in the 3rd LAR with him.
I salute your husband and his comrads for their service to our country. Although our efforts in Iraq and Afghanistan are unpopular with many, our soldiers must always have our support. My "Thank You" goes out to all our brave troops and to their wives and families who stand in their support through these difficult times of separation. May you all have a safe and blessed Christmas, and may your soldiers return safely to you. You are loved and my prayers are lifted up for you. God bless.
Another proud 3rd LAR wife here!
Love the picture Debbie!
