Chinook helicopters based at RAF Odiham approach the landing site on the Al Faw peninsula, Iraq on the night of 20th March 2003 to insert Royal Marines to secure the oil terminal. Operation HOUGHTON, as it was known, was part of the early stages of Operation TELIC, the campaign to rid the country of Saddam Hussein. The strength of the enemy ground forces was unknown. The formation of 5 aircraft inserted 200 Royal Marines in 3 waves in 2 minutes and was led by Squadron Leader Steve Carr flying Bravo November, the same aircraft that was so successful during the Falklands War in 1982. For leading the assault Squadron Leader Carr was awarded with the Distinguished Flying Cross.

Through the Hands of Victory, Baghdad, Iraq, 7th April 2003 by David Pentland. 		Capturing the Manifold Metering Station (MMS) on the Al Faw peninsula, Iraq. During Operation TELIC, the liberation of Iraq, on the night of 20th March 2003, 40 Commando Royal Marines, under the command of Lt Col G K Messenger OBE, mounted an amphibious helicopter assault to seize key Iraqi oil infrastructure on the Al Faw peninsula. It took around five hours from H hour until the area was deemed secure, and this painting shows the scene at first light on 21st March. As the first conventional troops on the ground, the strategic significance of the operation was immense. The Commando Group's role in the success of the coalition operation in Iraq was pivotal and profound. In a two-week period of intense operations, it secured vital oil installations, cleared a large expanse of enemy held terrain, and defeated a major enemy stronghold on the outskirts of Basra, killing over 150 Iraqi soldiers and taking 440 prisoners.
