Four of the innocent civilians attempted to kill the Marines with AK-47s and were stopped only by the quick response of LCpl Sharratt and Sgt. Wuterich. Footage from a drone shows an insurgent leaving a home carrying a child and attempting to blend in only to be discovered by the Marines due to a bloody ear.
This quote is very important, it shows that a drone was on scene at roughly the same time frame as the initial action.
Given their small size and slow speed The drones that 3/1 used almost had to be with the convoy from the beginning.
Hopefully, we'll start to learn more, starting tomorrow. In the LtCol Chessani. I'm assuming the defense will start with the white taxi to build a narrative of what happened that morning.
