1983 Beirut Barracks Bombings
A bulldozer and crane help rescuers search for survivors of a terrorist truck bomb attack on the barracks building housing servicemen from the 2nd Marine Division of the United States Marine Corps, members of the Multinational Force in Lebanon (MNF), in Beirut, Lebanon in October 1983. A total of 241 US military personnel died in the attack when a suicide bomber drove a truck bomb into the building and detonated the explosives, collapsing the four storey building.
