Not sure, but his crew was moving behind the others. They were doing work close to Kuwait this morning, and I think encountered conflict around Basrah.

Nothing we can't handle, but still... No, I have the same impression. Like we're advancing but not totally unimpeded. I seem to recall less resistance the last time around. Then again, (1) I was fairly young during the 1991 war and (2) our objective to advance to Baghdad is clear this time. I'm hopeful that surrenders will increase exponentially after more communications are disrupted and/or more of the command structure is eliminated.
