Militia? Did you get this from a reliable source?
Last night O'reilly was talking to I believe Col.Cowen (sp?) and the Col. had put a group together to go in to get an elderly lady out. Maybe it was the Col's group? Maybe other Freepers heard more than I. I just caught a little of it.
Very reliable.
After thinking and reading other posts, it must have been private security. they were very professional. The people were overjoyed.
