***Operation Iraqi Freedom - Situation Room - Day 6 - LIVE THREAD***
Multiple ^ | 25 March 2003 | Various

Posted on 03/24/2003 8:59:27 PM PST by An.American.Expatriate

Good Morning.

This is the Daily Thread of Operation Iraqi Freedom - LIVE THREAD.

It is designed for general conversation about the events of the day. In depth discussion of events should be left to individual threads - but links to the threads or other articles is highly encouraged. This allows us to stay abreast of the situation in general, while also providing a means of obtaining specific information.

Please have mercy on us dial up limited FReepers! Limit the big graphics, post links instead. A breif description of what the graphic is would help:

Special thanks to null and void for keeping these running over the weekend and Monday, to all of you for keeping these threads alive, the AdminMods for their tolerance, mhking for the video links, and, of course, Belly Girl...

"I wonder if the bar is open"

ha
I am tired, I thought you said wonder if the bra is open.

War stuff...I think Shep was cleared to say 90 miles...I've heard 90 miles, 75 miles and 50 miles before they hit baghdad, I guess we're having our own disinformation going on :-)

There have been a few articles complaining that Rummy did not allocate enough ground forces (specifically heavy armor) to the battle. One former general from GWI said that American forces are spread too thin.

How about coordinating the start of the new thread by discussing it on the active thread before someone just jumps up and does it without announcing it ahead of time?

The pilot and gunner were captured. They were shown on Iraqi TV, and the Pentagon said the video looked authentic. The

Fox - US Marines in a 'copter and artillery battle in Nasariah. Pretty nasty.

"It's all nerves."

Oh, puullleeeaaasseee....we all sit here in our cushy chairs while our soldiers are fighting and sleeping under who knows what conditions.....yeah, tells me a lot about the abilities of the idjits here and their ability (or lack) to focus on something besides their carnal instincts.

A lot of us are spending a plethora of hours relaying information to this thread. Me being one of them. If discussion of Belly Girl comes up every now and then (which is the case since the war started), I don't think it's going to hurt anybody if the guys mention Belly Girl and the girls mention Rick Leventhal. There's no harm intended.

So far, the DoD and DoS have only said that the Russians sold night vision goggles. They've said nothing about IR equipment.

Apparently there are two British soldiers missing after a battle in Southern Iraq. This happened earlier yesterday though.
