There was a military squad leader who called into RUSH today. He mentioned that two hummer's went after a group that had gone after them.
I am not sure but it sounded like the driver of the three Humvee was killed and the other two humvee's did not come back to support them.
I think we will have to wait for the details on this one.

It makes me wonder if a convoy of 3 is enough. I also wonder why an exclusively U.S. convoy; why not conjoined U.S./Iraqi?

Reported on Michelle Malkins site that one of the lessons learned is that you do not split a small force in these situations, especially when you know that capture means death. Either you all go or you all stay.
