Many (including myself) are wondering who and how many are operating in the western deserts .. much speculation about the II MEF is involved. Based on unclassified info available some elements of the II MEF (2-6 and 2-8) are accounted for in the current direct assault actions as part of the I MEF. That's all the info I could get - far from conclusive or complete, just trying to help.

I'm beginning to think either they did not move out, or are not there. I can't believe, if they are "out there," they would have waited this long to swoop down between Tikrit and Baghdad---especially with Special Forces operating in Tikrit. Who knows? Maybe I was totally wrong about the II MEF. It's certainly starting to look that way.
