Among the items were several bricks of C-4, claymore anti-personnel mines, mortar rounds, detonation wires, nine-volt batteries and an RC controller. Resmondo described the find as an improvised explosive device factory.

Doesn't sound "improvised" to me. These are purpose-built munitions, and their presence indicates a well-funded and -supplied operation. Whether it's coming from Iran, Syria, or someone stealing from coalition arsenals, it's imperative to cut off the source.

My son is a civilian contractor carpenter working at Camp Echo near Diwaniyah. He's really glad to see the troops moving in since they were getting almost daily missile or mortar round attacks.

A few weeks ago his former roommate was driving a truck in the camp when he heard the whistle sound of a missile coming in. He jumped out of the truck a few seconds before the truck took a direct hit. He was sprayed with shrapnel on his back and neck and was airlifted to Kuwait for treatment. The doctors decided not to attempt to take the shrapnel out of his neck. Amazingly he was able to return to Camp Echo about two weeks later.

One thing often goes unnoticed is the grueling schedules our men must keep. The goons can lay around on their fat asses and hide in holes most of the time. The United States Army and Marines have no such luxury. God bless them, and keep them whole in spirit and in body.
