Sounds like small arms fire on bagdadcam....
To: commish
Just wondering if it was a specific op, or just the standard nightly visit. I have no idea what the target was. Every night's visit has been a specific operation though, targeting RG barracks, ammunition dumps, leadership bunkers, broadcast communications facilities, telecommunication facilities, etc. I wager that some of the nightly attacks are literally "personal" in nature.

Sounds like small arms fire on bagdadcam.... Whoa!
To: MEG33
The US army is amazing. apparently for the rescue of pvt Lynch they modified a Blackhawk with an aft ramp and a second main rotor on the tail. Or could it be that the press is a little confused?
Oh, sorry. Another dumb question.
To: commish
Which one? I can't get sound on MSNBC

Any big news overnight? If Rick's off the MREs and onto complaining about the heat, I figured we had a good night. What did Bob A. say???
I liked his reports up until I heard him whine that he only got 1 MRE one day. Just heard a report that Pvt Lynch may have gone up to 9 days without any food at all. Sort of puts whines in perspective.
To: commish
which one? PMS? CBS (does not work for me)? CNN? SKY (not worked for week for me)
To: Air Force Born
for the rescue of pvt Lynch they modified a Blackhawk with an aft ramp and a second main rotor on the tail. And did it with duct-dape.
LOL, the media is made up of not-so-bright people, who have an agenda.
To: commish
CBS keeps jumping to press conferences. I don't want to hear that mess. I'd rather watch Romper Room. You get to hear better questions.

I just heard this on CNN:
The Iraqi information minister has said
that reports the coalition troops are near Bagdad
are totally ridiculous.

I was disappointed at Rick pointing out how one of our soldiers was sweating profusely...due to the chem suit. Rick said: "Unlike them, they can't make me put on my suit.". Not one of his finer moments. Roger Ailes: talk to this guy!

When there is firefights going on in Baghdad yet your Minister of Disinformation says its a lie that US is on outskirts of city, who, in their right mind, would believe this boob?
