Marines from 3rd Battalion, 6th Marine Regiment, for whom this is their first combat tour, are faced with an array of missions that can be overwhelming to inexperienced Marines. Luckily, they have battle tested Marines like Cpl. Dennis W. Simon, 28, from Leesburg, Fl., to lead them. The short time between deployments has given birth to a generation of Marines tasting combat for the second, third, or even fourth time. Photo submitted 02/20/2007, Taken by Lance Cpl.
