Ambush kills one U.S. soldier, wounds two in Iraq
BAGHDAD, July 31 (Reuters) - One U.S. soldier was killed and two wounded in a gun attack on their tactical operations centre northeast of Baghdad, the U.S. army said on Thursday.
A military spokesman said the soldiers from the 4th Infantry Division were attacked around 11:45 p.m. (1945 GMT) on Wednesday. The death brings to 51 the number of U.S. soldiers killed by attacks since Washington declared major combat over on May 1. In the last two weeks alone, 18 have been killed.
The 4th is a class A bunch and will prevail. Tikrit is a rats nest that never fought during the real war. They took their guns, dropped their uniforms and hid like snakes.
They will be dealt with.
