I just received a private e-mail from someone I know from a Marine website who has family in Iraq. There has been a weapons cache explosion that caused many, hundreds of people to be exposed to some chemical that was present in the weapons.

The MSM will conceal anything like this until they can't .. we all know it, the rotten scumballs. BIG PRAYERS up for our brave troops. God bless and protect them from evil. Please keep us posted, Race.

I had the same result. There's a 2/14, but no 5/14 listed on the site for the 2nd Brigade RCT of the 10th Mountain. Guess we'll have to keep scratching our heads over this one.

the sarin subway attack in Japan was ideal conditons for sarin killing a bazillion people, yet I seem to recall hardly anybody died and there were hardly any injuries...
i wonder why ?

Sounds like an old CEWI unit.

But I do believe you found it.

Is this Bob's unit,?...

[VeniVidiVici]

Then you had to go find a 514th Maint Co. which is apparently organic to the 10th.

Could be either/or as much mixing and matching they do nowadays.

[SoldierDad]

Could be a part of the support for the 10th Mountain 2nd BCT (LI). His unit is the 1-89 Cavalry Regiment.
