The last few days and probably the next few are "logistics" days. The 3ID and MEF, Air Cav and Armored Cav (and now the 101st) are establishing their next jumping off points, and forward logistics bases (and even air fields) are being established to supply the blast into Baghdad. All the while, we degrade the forces at our front (and fix them in position) with Artillery and Air. This also gives us the ability to clean up the irregulars along the path.
And gee whiz...when we're done with this guess who'll be on the scene: 2nd Armored Cav and the 4th ID. Crush the egg shell.

Scott, we could use you - and your communications skills - in the press corp. Thanks for the common sense perspective.
