My son and his squad/company captured buildings full of Soviet arms on the eastern side of the Euphrates River after they (units of the 3rd ID) successfully launched a combined amphibious and tank assault on the Iraqi Republican Guard that remained after several days of a shellacking by the 3rd ID.

He and his squad captured scores of Iraqi regulars plus many more who surrendered to them voluntarily. Then they found buildings filled to the ceiling with weapons and supplies, INCLUDING FRESH, GREEN CHEMICAL WARFARE SUITS.

This information was turned over to the company commander.

You don’t need chemical warfare suits if you don’t have chemical weapons because the Iraqis knew that the US wasn’t going to use any other than maybe tear gas.

I hope more on what was captured from the Iraqis comes out in the future. The captured 50 lbs of cyanide in a glass jar was interesting. It wasn’t there to kill rats. I’ve seen pictures of this item.

There were also precursor chemicals needed to make deadly chemical weapons, as well as plans for nuclear weapons.

It would be nice to have a congressional investigation-hearing that addressed all these issues in an honest and open way, but that will have to wait until a Republican administration wins and starts to give us the truth about a lot of things.

Meanwhile, it’s Coverup City with the Obamanation regine.
