00:05.199 --> 00:07.510
Founded in 1940 , the Second Combat

00:07.510 --> 00:09.732
Engineer Battalion was built to enhance

00:09.732 --> 00:11.621
mobility , counter mobility , and

00:11.621 --> 00:13.621
survivability across the 2nd Marine

00:13.621 --> 00:16.629
Division . From their first major

00:16.629 --> 00:18.851
battle in the jungles of Guadalcanal to

00:18.851 --> 00:20.962
the blood-stained beaches in Tarawa ,

00:20.962 --> 00:22.907
these marines cleared the path for

00:22.907 --> 00:26.520
victory . They provide the mobility

00:26.520 --> 00:28.742
that 2nd Marine Division needs to win .

00:29.299 --> 00:31.466
They clear the minefields , bridge the

00:31.466 --> 00:33.466
gaps , and break the enemy's will .

00:35.590 --> 00:37.590
Most recently , from the streets of

00:37.590 --> 00:39.757
Iraq to the mountains of Afghanistan ,

00:39.790 --> 00:41.790
they have proven no obstacle is too

00:41.790 --> 00:43.846
great and no mission is impossible .

00:45.799 --> 00:48.560
Always forward , always ready . When

00:48.560 --> 00:50.599
the division moves , 2nd Combat

00:50.599 --> 00:52.680
Engineer Battalion leads the way .
