As US Marines advance into Iraq in the drama Generation Kill, a Rolling Stone reporter stays close to the action as he rides with the troops in the back of a Humvee.
The reporter, Evan Wright, spent two months with the battalion and told the story of their experiences of combat in his award-winning book Generation Kill.
