we supported the theater, including TFR...I was the senior maintenance warrant with a transportation company- oldest guy in the unit...I think this incident occurred about the same time TFR arrived...early Sept, if I recall right...convoys were easy targets because the linehaul trucks moved so slow through the city- they used everything on us, RPG's, command denotated mines, you name it...I've written a few pieces about it all, which has helped, but pictures of kids with arms/explosives, sadly enough, don't surprise me- how 'bout you? were you there?

No, I was in high school at the time. I became one of those Clinton-haters after I heard that Aspin denied the armor and AC-130 support to the troops despite Garrison's request.
