Hundreds of U.S. Marines, sailors, soldiers and civilians attended a memorial service at Camp Al Asad, Iraq, for six Marines and one sailor who died earlier this month due to a vehicle accident in western Al Anbar Province, Iraq. Here, with their company's red flag flapping in the breeze, Marines from Headquarters and Support Company, Combat Logistics Battalion 7, wait for the memorial service to begin. Of the seven deceased, three were from H&S Company. All seven died when their seven-ton truck, part of a Marine combat logistics re-supply in Iraq's Al Anbar Province, rolled over during a flash-flood. All seven fallen Marines and sailor were part of the Camp Pendleton, Calif.-based 1st Marine Logistics Group -- CLB-7's parent command. A memorial service for an eighth Marine, who was with the Hawaii-based 3rd Battalion, 3rd Marine Regiment and was killed in the same accident, was held at the Marines' base in Haditha last week.
