Coalition forces are taking the fight to the enemy and responding to enemy challenges, according to news releases on recent coalition activity. Coalition troops are also benefiting from increased intelligence from local people.

In the northern part of the country, members of the Coalition for Iraqi Unity, a concerned group of citizens, came to the 1st Squadron, 14th Cavalry Regiment, and turned in one rocket-propelled grenade launcher, 131 RPG warheads, 21 boosters, 718 12.7 mm rounds, 51 hand grenades, one 60 mm mortar round, one 52 mm mortar round, two cases of 14.5 mm ammunition, a radio, 213 82 mm mortar rounds, one RPG night vision device, 500 rounds of 7.62 mm ammunition, 550 rounds of 14.5 mm ammunition and one 100 mm high-explosive round.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Many enemies captured and/or killed, weapons taken out of the hands of bad guys, by our awesome troops working across Iraq ~ with help from our Iraqi allies ~ over the past few days. 

 CJTF 7 security reports, bless our troops, ping!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I went to an extreme motocross event (X games style freestyle jumping) in Pittsburgh last Friday. It was good to see the Marines their supporting the show!!! I personally went up and gave them my thanks.
