During Operation Iraqi Freedom 06-08, the mission of 6-9 Armored Reconnaissance Squadron, 3rd Brigade Combat Team was to secure and protect the towns and countryside in the area from a massive Al-Qaeda (AQI) concentration estimated at 4 battalions and keep any more support from coming from the north to Baquoba and Baghdad in the south.
