It's going to be interesting what comes out of the investigation. Hmmmm.

Be sure to mention that to the next SEAL, Green Beret, or other "sneak and peek" type you come across. :)

I prefer to have my various body parts stay connected, thank you very much. 8-) But you know what I meant

Actually Fire bombs is a more modern term for napalm.

More precisely, "fire bomb" is the generic term. Napalm is defined by DoD as having a specific formula (see here)

At one point, some reporter asked in a briefing if we were using napalm in Iraq. The spokesman said "we are not using napalm", and did not volunteer that we were using fire bombs of a different formulation these days. Caused a bit of finger pointing (see last paragraph of linked article)
