Task Force Baghdad Soldiers uncovered a large weapons cache in the outskirts of western Baghdad while conducting a morning patrol on Sept. 24. Soldiers from 2nd Battalion, 130th Infantry Regiment, 48th Brigade Combat Team, have been successful in finding weapons caches within their area of operations. In less than a month they have found six weapons caches of significant size, two of which were extremely large. Capt. James H. Alexander, Jr., an operations officer with 2nd Bn, 130 Inf. Regt., attributes this success to the troops on the ground.

One rifle and one small mortar is a "sizeable cache"?
To: ozzymandus
The cache included 11 improvised explosive devices, one sniper rifle, 18 Motorola telephones, one mortar tube, 14 60 mm mortar rounds, one artillery round, nine washing machine timers and an unspecified amount of TNT and C4 plastic explosives.

Six suspected terrorists were also detained as a result of the find. That's the best thing they found.

islander-11 has been aded to the Stryker Brigade Combat Team Tactical Studies Group (Chairborne).
Be advised that ping list is on my About page and anybody who runs up on Stryker threads is welcome to use it. I am back in Afghanistan now, so anybody who wants to take up the mission of head Stryker pinger is welcome to relieve me.
