A Burning Dog

S1, E5: As they scope a tiny hamlet, the men of Bravo are frustrated by the capricious nature of the war, and Colbert struggles to defend the actions of the higher-ups. First Recon finally gets a chance to use their skills and exploit some intelligence from Iraqi locals about an ambush at a bridge ahead. They quickly discover that the enemy combatants still have some fight in them. After regrouping, Bravo is ordered to cross the bridge again, this time with Bravo 3 in the lead, and again hits a snag. The following morning, First Recon examines the bodies of the men they fought the night before, and discover their enemy is not who they imagined. Bravo continues north to Al Muwafaqiyah, where they are tasked with setting up another roadblock and with destroying the Republican Guard outpost, which, unfortunately, is in the town's only school.
