Sounds like the secret base isn’t so secret to the guys shooting at it. That’s the problem with an Obama pussified response.

Sad. Freakin’ heartbreaking. There should be no secret base. There should only be loud and frightening Marine bases.
When will America ever unleash a no holds barred, non sneaky-pete, right up your wazzoo, division sized attack?

That is what made the world fear us.... Back then.

It is now Firebase Hell. They need more help to move the enemy further away.

It’s not a secret to ISIS, but to the American Public.

More of those Not-Boots-On-The-Ground boots on the ground.

That’s a fact. This secret crap is good for some rare things. But too frequently today it is used because the wusses in charge like to see what they can do without anyone knowing.

If this government invaded Saipan today, they would halo in at night, set up a secret comm base, and target Jap antennae with some sort of jamming. The operation would continue for 14 years.

It appears that the author of this piece doesn’t know the difference between direct and indirect fire.

That is what I thought when I read the headline. If rockets are hitting your base, the cat is out of the bag on that one.

Jerk leadership doesn’t try to win, but they don’t mind a human sacrifice to their lawlessness on a regular basis. I despise these people. .

I noticed that. They need an editor, or fact checker, or something.

The Press is too busy attacking conservatives and protecting DemonRatz to worry about being competent and knowledgeable.

The only military experience he has is probably protesting ROTC at his commie college.

If you had clicked on the "indirect fire" link you would have seen that it was from ABC and they used the term indirect
