I can't wait until the history of the SOF contribution to this war is written!

Don't know if we "should" every see such as the asymmetrical warfare we see these days needs to have a series of effective countermeasures from our Spec Ops community that stays a secret as long as possible, forever or till no longer effective. I know it won't happen ........just my opinion of course. Would be a great read though.

Stay Safe !

It's pretty easy to take on these large numbers of enemy forces when you've got an aircraft carrier in direct support of an O.D.A.," he said. "Now an O.D.A. is 12 men. So 12 guys and some pesh merga took on a division — and moved it."

Just incredible.

I can't wait until the history of the SOF contribution to this war is written!

It is going to be some of the most amazing military reading for a long time to come.

Well, I hope the boys are enjoying some new assignments in the Tragic Kingdom after some R&R.

Where's Robin Moore been for the past year anyway?

The history of our SOF in this recent Iraqi war, combined with our Air Force, Naval Wings and Army air will not only make history.

They will change the face of American Warfare/tactics for the better part of this century.

This is why so many old line generals/admirals hate Rummy so much. Rummy refuses to fight a war in this century using the tactics and use of manpower of WWII!

As interesting as that would be, I'm of the opinion that the less said the better..
No need to let the bastards out there, in on how we're going to kill them ---- when it's their turn.

I think we will see shrinkage of the "heavy army" as we know it today....
Expansion of Special Forces, Rangers, Recon, Focused Whack teams, SEAL Teams, etc... all light and highly mobile - backed by high tech and instant airpower is in the future... I hope...
