"2 different US convoys on different sides of the city. they attacked with mortar, RPG, small arms, roadblocks, attacking from alleys and rooftops. US response with tanks and Bradleys. no report of air cover for our guys (I cannot understand that)."

They returned fire with 120mm tank rounds, 25mm rounds from the Bradlys and destroyed the buildings. Guess aire support wasnt needed. One of the convoys was escorting new, Saddam-free Iraqi dinars.
