Apache gunners file news stories? I can easily see a kill agianst a hostile vehicle of all types (APC? supply trucks? etc.) being mistranslated by a journalist as a tank kill. Makes me think that if this number was in a news story--I have never read it and I read a lot then the journalist got what was killed wrong - but notthe numbers. Please link the article on the number of tank kills claimed so I can know from what source you are typing about. Thanks.

A CENTCOM briefing officer said "tanks," not a journalist.
