CAMP FALLUJAH, Iraq(Nov. 07, 2004) -- With what seems an immenent assault on Fallujah coming in the next few days, media embedded with the Marines are rethinking their rolls in what looks to be the largest assault in Iraq since the end of major combat operations last year.
This isn’t what they expected, said one CNN journalist while finishing up the latest edits about a patrol that took place the night before. Many of the media here have been in combat zones before but this time is different, he said.

No Ernie Pyles or Quentin Reynolds' in this bunch I guess. CNN, not surprising. Falujah has the makings of a pretty hot scene, though. Nothing like it seen since the battle of Hue, or some parts of Saigon during Tet.
