I heard that because of ROE we had to use their snipers in Fallujah to get guys who were out setting up IEDs and the like but weren’t shooting. Dunno if its true but either way thanks for the help guys we’ll remember when Putin comes knocking.

Sounds fishy. I can see them being used in that manner in other places in Iraq, but Fallujah was one of our few “take off the gloves” battles. The city was surrounded and civilians were allowed to leave for months before our two attacks. It was one of the few times we went in like it was a war, not a popularity contest

MISSION: COMPLETED!
...TIME TO RETURN HOME!
Polish soldiers are only humans and therefore they're mortal like others. Polish soldiers can be weak or strong - just like others.
However, Polish soldiers never give up the fight and are faithful till the very end, and this makes them extraordinary in this cowardly and treacherous world.
"We will return to Iraq as tourists", said the commander of the Polish Military Mission in Iraq.
Iraqi children bid farewell to Poles with hugs and flowers
Oh Lord! I'm so proud to be Polish!
