CogNative Posted December 12, 2008 Share Posted December 12, 2008 "The surrounding mountains and buildings erupted in an ambush: The soldiers estimate that more than 200 fighters opened up with rifles, rocket-propelled grenades, machine guns and AK-47s. ... An F-15 made a strafing run to push back the fighters, but it wasn't enough...." Yes... Thank God for Close Air Support and the determination for all the Silver Stars in the belly of the beast and to make it out alive... with each other. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
