38 MArines is way too many to lose. I would bombed all the mosqes, but two and then just flatten the place.

On weapons complex had 45minutes of secondaries.

The BAD guys turned this into a powder keg.

What is the device that flips down on the tank exactly 60 seconds into the clip?

What was that big gun at the end?

I don't know, but I'd sure hate to be on the receiving end of that one!

A rocket launcher by the looks of the thing. Techno-dudes will hopefully explain it better.

I think it was a Tow Missile Tube. Wired guided I think.

The "tank" is an M2 or M3 Bradley Infantry Fighting Vehicle. The thing is a 2 shot TOW anti-tank missle.

House to house fighting has to be the most intense and horrifying type of warfare to exist. Something that is experienced, does not want to be experienced again and if you have not experienced it, believe me, you do not want to.

I don't get it. How can they do a background check or even verify residence in a country like Iraq??

"At least twice I see a machinegunner having to clear his SAW."

Probably had it set on adverse setting and the rate of fire was causing misfeed jams. These guys probably haven't even had time to clean they're weapons in 5 days.

The M2 is the Infantry Fighting Vehicle, the M3 is the Cavalry Fighting Vehicle.
