Ok, without being too graphic I do have a couple of stories. I can share one I guess.
There was a truck full of Marines doing a patrol down a main road, like a big freeway, and there were cars driving past. One car pulled up next to the truck and blew up. There was 1000 pounds of explosives in the car so you can bet the truck was pretty much done. You can bet we were pretty pissed about that. :angryfire: So the next day we went on a retaliation mission. We took about 30 tanks and put them all on line in front of a bad neighborhood. It was a terrorist training ground and there were no civilians living there at the time. So that pretty much gave us free reign. I was in the plow tank, it has a big mine plow on the front of it, alot like a train. So I plowed through a mine field as we pulled up and as soon as we got into enemy rifle range we immediatly started taking fire. :rifle: We all pulled up on line and with the suppost of artillary and air strikes we then leveled this neighborhood in falluja. It took us four hours but in that four hours we killed between 600 and 1000 insurgents. Bet ya didn't hear about that one on the news. :blahblah:
