A US Marine from the 2nd Battalion, 8th Regiment pulls out an Iraqi flag at a hospital allegedly used for military purposes by Iraqi forces in the outskirts of the southern Iraqi city of Nasiriyah, where allied troops have found resistance in their northbound advance towards Baghdad 25 March 2003. A column of about 4,000 marines managed to cross the Euphrates river after several days of bloody and costly fighting, which left the road out of Nasiriyah littered with the corpses of dead Iraqi soldiers and burned out vehicles.
