We had freepers from Houston (missed you anymouse) and Dallas, Austin and San Marcos. Afterwards we went to eat together and that was great to be able to talk it over.

On the radio I heard the rest of the story about the troops who were taken POW's. You know all we have heard was they took a wrong turn. Well it turns out that the unit of cooks, clerks and maintenance were led by a 2nd Lt. who did take a wrong turn and the 28 of them ended up facing a crack Iraqi unit of 120 and 2 tanks.

They took casualities, and took out unknown number and the 2 tanks before being overwelmed. This is the ones that include Soshana Johnson of Ft. Bliss. Seems they did a great job but it wasn't reported in the US very well, who has heard this?

The guy on the radio (from Ft. Bliss) said that he heard snippets from the Canadian press, the Mexican press and very little from FoxNews.

WHY ISN'T THE US PRESS TELLING THIS STORY, THOSE SLIMES!
