Blackfive links to this emailed letter from photojournalist Rick Loomis who was embedded with Marines in Fallujah. Loomis recounts a harrowing day of battle where young Marines die, where young Marines fight to make their forbears pround, and where Loomis himself questions not only his role as "objective journalist" but as a human being as well.
After you read the email, you can find his photos from that day with his own narrative here. (Scroll to the shots titled, "Photographer Rick Loomis describes a Fallouja firefight, with sounds from the battle."
