There are others praying out there right now that you will never hear about! You have been in my prayers today, Mike and Chromey, Karen, t. and FRiend(s).

My ISP went down last night. I am sorry I couldn't be here earlier.

.

They captured the 16 soon after. They've probably been out tracking leads after questioning these bad guys (and girls).

This is some of what they were dealing with in Balad the day before:
 
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
In a search of locations near Balad, soldiers from B Company, 1st Squadron, 10th Cavalry Regiment captured four individuals, including one person specifically targeted in the morning of Jan. 30. The captured individual is suspected of involvement in improvised explosive device attacks. The soldiers confiscated two AK-47 assault rifles, one SKS automatic weapon and one rifle. Another individual targeted for suspected involvement in improvised explosive device attacks was brought to a forward operating base a short time later by Iraqi citizens and has been detained.
 
A Patrol from 2nd Battalion, 8th Infantry Regiment came under attack by enemy using automatic weapons south of Balad in the late evening of Jan 30. The patrol returned fire, killing one of the attackers. Soldiers captured three individuals and seized three AK-47 assault rifles and three grenades.
