I recently had an email exchange with freelance journalist Michael Yon, who is currently in Iraq covering the Marines in Al Anbar province. He confirmed that he will be embedding shortly with the 3/2 SBCT, and will be covering them for the remainder of their extended deployment.
For those of you not familiar with Michael's work I strongly encourage you to visit his website and browse the "Michael's Most Popular" section at the bottom of the page. He was embedded for months with the 1-24 INF ("Deuce Four"), 1/25 SBCT in 2005 while they were in Mosul, and many of those dispatches are from that period.
As a freelance journalist (and former special forces soldier, btw) he relies heavily on donations to keep him in Iraq. If you value this kind of coverage I strongly encourage you to drop a few bucks in his tip jar. I made my donation yesterday. To learn more about Michael and why he's in Iraq, please visit his "Thank You For Your Support" page.
