Viva Bush !
The son of the owner of the shooting range I go to was headed out there this week. He job is to disable bombs found along the road or in weapons caches. His unit is small, 4 men in a Humvee, attached to a larger special forces unit out to kill capture and disable these renegade groupings. I wonder if he was part of this score?
Kudos to our boys for cleaing up this mess. Pray to keep them safe and ever victorious over the warlords.

Sad but true. Thir time is radpidly coming to an end, however.
A good friend of mine is a Platoon Leader in the 82nd Airborne; he was involved in this mission as well. They had at least one confirmed kill. From what he was telling me (through AIM) it sounded like the Afghanistan National Army types were doing very well.
