Fort Benning’s 3rd Brigade continues to deploy to Iraq. About 200 soldiers parted with their families this morning, of the 3,600 expected to deploy next week.
This is the fourth deployment for the 3rd Brigade since 2003. It will soon be the most deployed combat unit in the U.S. Army.
The 3rd Brigade has lost 70 soldiers since its first deployment, the names of whom are memorialized by Kelley Hill at Fort Benning.
The soldiers will be gone a year, or until the completion of the mission.
