Biggest British tank battle since El Alamein

"To take out 14 tanks, which is the equivalent of an entire British squadron, is a massive achievement."

That's some mighty fine shooting.

I only reference details of the suicidal predestination which grips this reawakened petro-dollar Islamofascism, technically aided by post-commie fascist nations enriching leadership elites while we spent our peace dividends during XXX42's treasons.

I will never doubt our men in uniform at the battle, but I will always have caution over our national leadership. D.C. provides broad avenues for the 5th columns throughout our own government.

Iran and Syria are witnessing fortress Iraq smoke and stink into this summer. If Congress holds the line which GW has drawn, the Islamo & post-commie fascists, aka criminal socialist elites, may get reckless because above all else, they must protect themselves. They are at war with the USA because we are the power on earth willing and able to destroy their new world order, if we act in time.

If our mortal enemies' subjects knew everything about the corruptions of their own murdering regimes, heads would roll even after they were burned.

From what I've read of the first Gulf War, the cannons raise slightly while reloading, and the range of their shells are a mile less than allied tanks.

"the cannons raise slightly while reloading"

Is that because of the auto loader maybe? Or was that only on the later models.

Toast them with a Guinness or 3.

Well done and MEGA KUDOS to our British compatriots!

AWESOME!

That tune is called Scotland the Brave. MadIvan posted Rule Britannia the other day and I wanted to give the Scots Dragoon Guards their props.

You're right. It was the auto loader. The Iraqi's also had a bad habit of keeping their tanks running at night to keep warm, of course our guys just checked for heat signatures and blew 'em up.
