Field Artillery Saves Lives, Makes History Soldiers say they are happy to make a difference in the future of Iraq.

By U.S. Army Spc. Al Barrus 122nd Mobile Public Affairs Detachment

FALLUJAH, Iraq, Nov. 19, 2004 — Throughout the First Cavalry Division, field artillery soldiers have been patrolling streets in Humvees, and conducting infantry duties. But when the multinational forces moved to siege Fallujah early November, one battery got to bring the fight to the enemy with howitzers.

For 10 months, Battery A, 3rd Battalion, 82nd Field Artillery, 2nd Brigade Combat Team, 1st Cavalry Divison, patrolled neighborhoods in west Baghdad. When their brigade was called to Fallujah, they were the primary fire support for the operation.

The battery provided both counter-fire missions and direct-fire missions for the 1st Marine Division as well as 2nd team. They began firing Nov. 4, and have since fired more than 1,700 rounds. They took on roughly 300 missions from their firebase just outside Fallujah.

“The troops on the ground give us exact coordinates and request support, and we will fire at those coordinates and hopefully destroy the enemy they are engaging,” said Capt. Michael Burgoyne, Battery A commander. “ We destroyed an enemy command and control headquarters; we’ve killed enemy snipers, bunkers, mortar teams, enemy squads.”

Been organizing my graphics better and sometimes a few of them get stuck together.     Like these two got stuck together...really well, too, if I might say so, myself.

[Kathy in Alaska]

I wondered where he got off to.......some kids are harder to keep track of than others. Maybe Nonie could escort him home.

[Lady Jag]

Needs a little touch-up, but the bra fits our buxom Democrat rather well.

Hey Mister,

This is Mr. B. Thanks for the audio file.

I've been playing the Native Instruments B4 and trying to remember some of the Santana and Allman Bros stuff I used to do. Also Booker T and the MGs.

Mostly I play blues improv. of my own design, compin' and groovin', and of course boogie-woogie piano.

If you want to have some fun go, to nativeinstruments.com and download the B4 "stand alone" demo version.

I don't know if MS.B told you, but my other favorite "power tool" besides the Hammond, is...the press release.

Take it easy.

Mr.B

L0L! I hadent thought of the Don Ho in years! L0L

He used to play down the street from where I stayed but I never saw him.

I wasnt into the lounge thing at the time, but that hawaiian slack key guitar and the carribean drums! that guy was onto something!~ L0L
