But for some of the Marines and soldiers who operated there, the strangest experiences had nothing to do with the enemy. Drawn from firsthand accounts shared by servicemen, these stories describe unsettling encounters in abandoned buildings, isolated outposts, and the ruins of the city itself — moments that still defy explanation years later.
