The suspected trigger house was 250 meters south of the ambush site (meaning where the IED exploded) and houses 1 and 2 were also south of the ambush site.

That might be wrong and the Taxi guys were possibly the lookouts.

Here is a guess of the positions, remember that all the action took place within a mile radius.

Thanks very much, cobra. The best thing about posting material on Free Republic is that Freepers (well, most of them anyway) are so sharp.

At the moment, Nat's off spearing catfish in the Ozarks, but when he's back, we might be able to refine the distances and positions around the ambush site.

As said elsewhere, I'm also looking forward to getting all the rest of the surveillance material. What's here is just a fraction of the total recorded on that day.

That is a good guess. Are you saying the trigger house that was suspected by the Marines and investigated at the time is where the two lines intersect?
