FN: Ollie North w/ the 1st Marine Exped. Force: "The leaders of this war, the folks running it, aren't doing it from behind." "There are gun fights every day..by both these Marine regimental combat teams...this has been heavy combat all the way north...has (gone) remarkably well." "Griff Jenkins (Ollie's cameraman) took a prisoner with nothing more than his camera...one of those members of the 51st who (are) so ready to surrender." Re. anyone coming to help fight against the coalition: Ollie talks of flying w/ the Marines today, filming as the Marines shot 5 enemy combatants from the air.."All of those guys ran out of that building (firing AKAs) at the helicopters ...(all are dead)".. To Alan and Sean: "Young Marines out here very much appreciate that you guys have them in your prayers."
