Raid ~ suspected troublemakers in Ar Ramadi.

Brig. Gen. Khalid Arak Hatimy, a former bodyguard of Saddam Hussein, was one of the men captured.

The 1/16 Mech is a 1st Infantry division unit (Bradley riders) from Fort RIley, and I said whaaat? But they have been chopped to the 82nd, and their companies divided among the parachute infantry bats to back 'em up with a little hard-core firepower. Seems to be working out well. Here's a statement by one of the battallion commanders, which includes praise for the companies of 1/16 he has on board:

I'm sure if we dug we'd find more examples. The US has not deployed an Army this imaginative and flexible since WWII -- no disrespect to Vietnam or Korea vets intended. If Saddam's Sunnis want to fight an unconventional war, that's a war of ideas and imagination, and they're going to lose. The people, the war, their lives -- game, set, match.

d.o.l.

This is just a leeeeetle thing...but when I saw 82AD....I thought, I didn't know we had an 82nd ARMORED DIVISION. It's the 82nd AIRBORNE and that is abbreviated ABN or lower case abn. Myself, these days I'm CHAIRBORNE....get it? LOL
