Three UAF students and their journalism professor will embed with the 1/25 SBCT in Iraq for a month, according to the Daily News-Miner.
The University of Alaska Fairbanks seniors signed onto a monthlong hitch in one of the most dangerous countries in the world.
They leave today on a trip to Baqouba, Iraq, northeast of Baghdad, where they’ll embed with soldiers from Fort Wainwright’s Stryker Brigade to learn what war reporting is all about.
The trio, chaperoned by Associate Professor Brian O’Donoghue, plan to file stories with various media outlets and post to their blog, shorttimers.blogspot.com.
