From the Washington D.C. offices of Vets for Freedom (VFF)

Eight Iraq war veterans who are members of VFF are returning to Iraq to assess conditions on the ground and analyze policy options for future U.S. military involvement. On Monday, they’ll return to the Iraqi cities where they once patrolled, to provide a true “before and after” perspective.

The idea is to provide us with an informed understanding of the best future course for the United States in Iraq, according to Pete Hegseth, chairman of Vets for Freedom.

The eight VFFs participating in the Iraq embed include Hegseth, David Bellavia, Joel Arends, Erik Swabb, Kate Norley, Shawn Bryan, Daniel Bell, and Ben Hayden. They will be posting their reports at Vets For Freedom’s website; BlackFive; The Weekly Standard; and National Review Online.

Expect real-time updates from key strategic points in Iraq, visits to Ramadi, Fallujah, Baqubah, Samarra, Baghdad, and upon their return, a report to elected officials and the public with findings and recommendations.
