With a long and proud history, the 1st ID is the oldest continuously serving division in the US Army. The BRO has seen battle in World War I, World War II, Vietnam, Iraq, Bosnia and Kosovo. In early 2004 they deployed to Iraq for Operation Iraqi Freedom 2. With a strength of 17,000 troops, the headquarters of the BRO is in Tikrit, situated ninety-three miles north of Baghdad. The AOR consists of the four provinces located north of Baghdad. Its mission is to partner with Iraqi civil and military authorities to ensure a secure, stable and self-reliant Iraq. Ralph was invited to a night patrol in Tikrit with Task Force 1-18. The reports of these patrols are supported by action photos of the soldiers and vehicles of the BRO. Within the reports are photos of up-armoured Bradleys with ERA, Abrams, M113s with filed modifications, different variants of armoured HMMWV and gun tracks. Ralph Zwilling participated in a patrol with Task Force 1-77 in Balad, searching for IEDs and weapon caches. He has also taken part in a combat patrol with Task Force 1-7 in Bayji to neutralize or capture non-compliant forces.
