Thanks,TexKat.God bless him.I knew at least 2 vehicles looked like they had gotten in the way of a tank.If this was a regular delivery of money,I may be wrong about the terrorists being tipped.This was probably this soldier's first firefight.

If this was a regular delivery of money

There is speculation that they may need money badly to pay off terrorists. It would be just so sad to be holed up with a few billion $$ of the old currency with Saddam's fat face on it when they changed over to new currency. I expect that the military intelligence people are keeping a pretty close eye on anyone that wants to exchange very large quantities of notes.
