In one of many actions related to Operation Ivy Cyclone, Task Force Ironhorse soldiers observed an attacker stringing monofilament wire across a road in an area near Tikrit. The individual was placing the wire at a height meant to mortally wound a coalition soldier, riding as the gunner in a HMMWV.~~~
(The wire stringer is no more.) Another bad day to be Saddam Hussein.

DUH!!! I looked at your connect point and answered my own question.
New question: how many DoD sites are you monitoring to keep us informed?

This is a part of the on-going offensive against the enemy.
The terror cells will be identified and killed. Their weapons and munitions will be located and destroyed.
All the while, the civil reconstruction of Iraq's economy, society, and government proceeds. They have never in the modern era known such prosperity and such freedom.
