Also Ramalia oil fields are under our control. This all seems to be news on MSNBC. Also on-site reporter says his convoy split up earlier and has now reconnoitered at a staging area. 3rd ID. Awaiting orders to deploy on different routes toward Bahgdad.

Sounds like pretty much the entire 3rd ID is ready to move. That would be daunting.

This reporter says they've been on the move for 44 hours.

David Bloom reporting from Third ID. Entire Third ID task force has been reassembled into one unit. Units on the move to confront the Nebuchadnezzar division.

Be Seeing You,

Chris
