Soldiers from two battalions of the 172nd Stryker Brigade Combat Team from Fort Wainwright Army Post participated in a large offensive operation earlier this month to root out insurgents and secure the Syrian border in Iraq.
Soldiers from the 4th Squadron, 14th Cavalry and the 2nd Battalion, 1st Infantry participated along with nearly 2,500 other members of U.S. military forces, according to Lt. Col. Mark Freitag, who spoke from Iraq with reporters Tuesday. Operation Steel Curtain began Nov. 4 and lasted 18 days.
