A firefight video from 2006 reportedly shows US Marines and Navy SEALs battling insurgents in the chop shop and residential areas of Ramadi, Iraq.
2006 was and exceptionally brutal year in Iraq. US troop numbers were still at relatively low pre-Surge levels but violence was at an all-time high up until that point. Sunni al Qaeda insurgents detonated bombs in Shia markets, and the Iranian-backed Shia militias like the Mahdi Army carried out mass executions on Sunni civilians, all while both sects targeted US troops daily.
