Good Morning.

This is the Daily Thread of Operation Iraqi Freedom - Situation Room - LIVE THREAD.

Aye! Tiny, but tough!

[umbagi]

On the minus side, the movie was R.O.T.O.R.

Great review of it -- but it appears that "something went terribly wrong" :-).

I've got Patton and We Were Soldiers queued next to the DVD, and planned to watch one of them today, but the firefight took care of that!

[fiesti]

ty amom

[amom]

LOL

Anyone know if CNN Sadler made it back last night or today?

[umbagi]

Welcome back aboard... If you're going to be up late[r], there's a play-by-play on the 25 thread, of the whole two hours of the firefight! Starting to look like that might be a "last hurrah," with things winding down and no Tikki-Cams...

Time to remember that 117+ isn't "light casualties" to the families of those brave troops...

[null and void]

Can I take down my

Save BILLIONS of lives
Stop Saddam NOW!

sign from the front of my house yet???

[Nam Vet]

"I wish we had a TikritCam! OTOH, moving toward a "regular" schedule won't hurt us... "

Amen, Bro. I need to get some work done. The hurrier i get, the behinder I get.

Nam Vet

[umbagi]

Naah; I'd hang onto the sign and the paint for a while...

We probably got everybody's attention, but you never know. Assad's being a real smarta$$ these days.

[umbagi]

The hurrier i get, the behinder I get.

Ditto -- I've got a partner who keeps reminding me we should have already shipped it! It's getting harder and harder to tell him "we've got a war to fight..."

Spent a couple of hours today, just trying to remember where I was :-).

[umbagi]

Anyone heard any news about Al Qaim? Last I heard they were still holding out...

[null and void]

Paint??? Oh no. It's a professionally made sign with fused on vinyl letters, guaranteed for 5 years weather.

I bought it a couple months ago figuring with the UN wanking around, I'd need the long life...

[Nam Vet]

"...and harder to tell him "we've got a war to fight..."

LOL... I've said many times these last weeks....., "Where have I been? .... I've been fighting a WAR !!"

Nam Vet

[amom]

Thanks for the info. I'm looking for it now.

No Tikki Cam :-(

Remembering the 117...yes

[The Hon. Galahad Threepwood]

FNC: Ollie's up soon, just outside Tikrit.

[two23]

Six pairs of boots, weapons, helmets and night-vision goggles -- representing the six crew members killed in the crash of a U.S. Army Blackhawk helicopter -- are displayed in a hangar at the Baghdad International Airport during a memorial service on April 12. The cause of the accident is still under investigation, but U.S.commanders have said enemy fire was not believed to have brought down the aircraft.

[The Hon. Galahad Threepwood]

Fox: Al Jazeera video of helicopters over Tikrit

[umbagi]

FNC: Looks like Tikrit's getting Snakebit...

[The Hon. Galahad Threepwood]

Fox: Ollie's in Sammara (Samarra?). Tikrit is surrounded.

[The Hon. Galahad Threepwood]

I spelled it wrong both times. It's Samara.

[Ymani Cricket]

Sadler did a little recap tonight. One of the gals that was with them (I forget her name, sorry) had been hit in the back of her body armor vest. You could see the mark on the vest right on the back of the shoulder. If it wasn't for the armor, she'd be seriously wounded. Just a few inches higher and over a bit and she'd have been dead.
Keep your armor on!
