Concur with Obsidian's comments. I was an Advisor within 2nd BDE IIF from it's inception through Fallujah. The original post is clearly self-serving and wildly uninformed, but then people will believe what they want to believe.

Most of 2nd BDE IIF is still in Fallujah maintaining security on infrastructure sites and keeping insurgents out.

As for Fallujah General Hospital... well, I've been there many times and spoken to some of the Iraqi soldiers (from HHC 1st BDE) who fought there. Apparently the so called Doctors were deeply involved with the Insurgency (as were so many of Fallujah's residents). The Docs were calling in Coalition troop movements via cell phone when the Iraqis arrived.

Moreover, after the fight we had to stop bringing Iraqs to the hospital due to the shear incompetence of the Doctors. We began treating them ourselves and at American aid stations, which is what we should have done from the start. Iraq medicine is stone-age by comparison. Those guys would amputate your nose for a head cold.

Well, don't let the fact that there were close to a dozen other Iraqi Army battalions right in the thick of Operation Al-Fajr stop you.

1st Bn, 1st Brigade, Iraqi Intervention Force
2nd Bn, 1st Brigade, Iraqi Intervention Force
4th Bn, 1st Brigade, Iraqi Intervention Force
5th Bn, 3rd Brigade, Iraqi Army
6th Bn, 3rd Brigade, Iraqi Army

... each of these fought pitched close-quarters battles in the initial assault. Several battalions of the 2nd Brigade IIF rotated in afterwards to help search the south and northeast, and saw plenty of combat.
