Wouldn't the first move be to send in the 101st airbourn
units to secure the Iraqi oil fields? Preventing them from being lit up would be huge. It shouldn't take much to capture them if it's done in the dark of night.

The 101st should be getting there any day. I would say that securing the oildfields from Saddams agents of sabotage is high on their priority.
