Force that Saddam Hussein is alive and well in Tikrit...no one wants the Kurds to get there first...will be a bloodbath...roving bands...attack Americans wherever they can find them...yesterday when medivac. casualty from Palace....guys on a roof that had been shooting at the Palace turned their weapons on us..."
