BBC News Online is asking readers to send in their personal experiences of the recent conflict in Iraq and its aftermath.
Of those sent in so far, some have been letters, e-mails or diary entries, while others have taken the form of personal accounts, with readers reflecting on how their lives have been affected by the war.
The second part of the series features David Steele, a geographic sergeant for the British Army's 19 Mechanised Brigade who was based in the southern Iraqi city of Basra.
Here he relates in a letter to his family a mission to recover the desecrated gravestones of British soldiers at a World War I cemetery in the city.
