SSgt Bellavia wrote a book titled “House to House” about his experiences in Fallujah. It was the book that got me hooked on memoirs and biographies. If you haven’t already, I highly recommend reading it. I’m pretty sure it chronicles the events for which he will now be awarded the Medal of Honor.
Edit: Added some info.
House to House by David Bellavia is an awesome and horrible account of taking Fallujah. At one point it went way past combat with bayonets -- bullets out, rifle dropped, Bellavia ends up wailing on an insurgent with his helmet.
Officially, first world militaries don't just hand epi out. But third world militaries, militias / terrorist groups etc aren't shy about abusing it. Moslem extremists like it because it isn't a drug of abuse so they can use it without compromising their faith. If you're a reader, or even if you aren't, check out House to House by Ssgt David Bellavia. https://www.amazon.com/dp/1416596607/ref=cm_sw_r_awdo_BJH8PF26JE13GBYKEWHY It's the most intense and "real" book on war I've ever read. The book covers 2-2 US infantry's insane fight at second Fallujah.
House to house is a book that is under recommended on this reddit, it's certainly fast paced, occasionally humorous, and full of action. As a bonus it's a Memoir about a soldiers experience in the battle of Fallujah, so outside of a few scenes that might have some gilding it's not a fictional story.

Edit: a longer profile on US Army infantryman David Bellavia than I posted below, if you have more time to learn about what he and the Army's First Infantry Division did alongside the Marines in Fallujah: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oBVia9vxx5o
For those wondering about the last time Americans fought there, House to House is a really incredible memoir about a US Army First Infantry Division sergeant leading his guys through the city during Operation Phantom Fury (the second and larger battle for the city in November, 2004). The Army's First infantry Division, some supporting Army armored elements and a large number of Marines entered the city in early November with the intent of driving fighters out of the city once and for all. It was one of the largest and most controversial battles of the Iraq war. Here's <em>House to House</em> on Amazon and here's a speech by the author, a former Army infantryman.
