[Cannoneer No. 4]

U.S. Air Force Col. Donald Bacon shared it with me and some others this morning.

Thank you very much.

[Cannoneer No. 4]

From Col. Bacon

1. The unit that captured was 1st Brigade Combat Team, 101st Airborne
Division.
2. The C-5 rocket is interesting... it was designed to be used as an
air to ground rocket... does not have a guidance system... AQI has used
it as a ground to air weapon primarily... they try shoot a bunch up in
air to hit a low flying helo or aircraft.

I hope this helps.
