Oct 23, 1983 marked the deadliest single-day loss of life for the U.S. Marine Corps since the Battle of Iwo Jima. On this day, a truck loaded with explosives, manned by suicide bombers, was detonated at the U.S. Marine Corps headquarters at Beirut International Airport, killing 241 American service members (220 Marines, 18 Navy sailors, and 3 Army soldiers) and wounding 100's of civilians. The suicide bombers were linked to Islamic Jihad, a group associated with Iran that later evolved into Hezbollah.
