JAHRESRUECKBLICK 2003 - AUSLAND - AUFMARSCH DER WUESTENFUECHSE: Tanks and soldiers of Britain's 7th Armoured Brigade gather in the Kuwaiti desert to hear an address from Lieutenant General Jeff Conway, Commanding General of the 1st Marine Expeditionary Force, Friday, March 14, 2003. It's only 300 miles from the Iraq-Kuwait border to Baghdad but how fast allied forces reach the Iraqi capital depends on the "speed bumps" they encounter. (KEYSTONE/AP Photo/Dan Chung) [WX103]
