It is already published....I emailed VR. He was right. A terrible loss. My heart sank when I saw it was 10 instead of 9. I know Soldiers do what they do and know the risks, but I still hate losing the best of the best. It always breaks my heart. But I am so very glad they got a good many of the Bastardos. It cost the Taliban/Al Qaeda their very best too. Despite the surprise attack, they didn't gain ground and they had to hide behind women and children for THEIR safety. The Taliban/Al Qaeda acted like the puny little cowards they are.
