Operation Iraqi Freedom: The Images You Didn't See on Television (http://www.rockyblues.com/oif/)
I read about this excellent site in our alumni magazine (Indiana University of Pennsylvania) and and about Marine Staff Sergeant Christopher Reese (class of '96) who produced the site and took many of the photos. There is a traveling exhibit of these photos entitled Operation Iraqi Freedom: From a Marine's eyes that has been seen in New York City, Washington, DC, Tampa, San Diego, and York, PA. The alumni magazine article contained the following quote:
The focus of the exhibit was on elements of Operation Iraqi Freedom that most Americans could not see on television. Reese believes that the mainstream media outlets leaned towards highlighting bullets, bombs, and blood instead of the rebuilding efforts.
Here is a photo of Staff Sergeant Reese with his camera equipment:
