Publisher's Synopsis
This volume presents a collection of 38 articles, interviews, and speeches describing many aspects of the U.S. Marine Corps' participation in Operation Enduring Freedom from 2001 to 2009. This work is intended to serve as a general overview and provisional reference to inform both Marines and the general public until the History Division completes monographs dealing with major Marine Corps operations during the campaign. The accompanying annotated bibliography provides a detailed look at selected sources that currently exist until new scholarship and archival materials become available. Additional support for this work came from Dr. Fred H. Allison, embedded reporter Kristin Hen-derson, Colonel James A. Hogberg, the Center for Naval Analyses, the Combat Studies Institute, Joint Force Quarterly, Leatherneck Magazine, Marine Corps Gazette, Marine Corps University Press, Marine Corps Times, Military Review, Rolling Stone, The San Diego Union-Tribune, Seapower, the United States Institute of Peace, U.S. Naval Institute Proceedings, and The Washington Post for permission to reprint their articles. Their cooperation made this anthology possible
