If this keeps up, maybe us folks at home can start instant messaging and e-mailing tactical battle tips to our good men and women on the front lines.
I'm sure they'd just love having that kind of contact with the civvies back home.

The Iraqi Vice President is saying the west is preventing the media from reporting what is really happening!!
After what we've all seen tonight, that is such BS, it is stunning!“I give you a new commandment, that you love one another. Just as I have loved you, you also should love one another. By this everyone will know that you are my disciples, if you have love for one another.”

AFAIK, most Marine arty is towed, and so it takes longer to set up than Army arty does. I would expect that until they secure Umm Qasr, that at least that battery would be positioned where it could reach any strong points within the port. The main body of Marines probably isn't that far ahead - they want to keep cohesion, so they will be securing the overall area, rather than stringing out.Originally posted by Drake Tungsten
Yeah, the marines will have a battery of 155's.
Do they keep them in the area for mopping-up activities? Or would they send them ahead with the main body of Marines?When all else fails, blame brown people. | Hire a teen, while they still know it all. | Trump-Palin 2016. "You're fired." "I quit."
