"Now Franks' advising not only is their no evidence the troops are dead but no evidence that the troops are even injured. Frank's can find no report by any of his field commanders of the incident that is rumored by the press.
"

It is quite remarkable, when one thinks about the daily casualty rates in korea, vietnam, and most of all wwII (think omaha beach), that the press and a general can quibble over this. It is nothing short of amazing that this country can conduct war with such low casualty numbers (even assuming the special ops kia's aren't reported).

In today's political climate no commander would dare order a frontal assult on a fortified position with light infantry.
