Great news huh? I'm well pleased. I only just heard this on TV via a phone link to a reporter based in Basra.

I think they will be even more pleased when the food and supplies begin to arrive. They will see that we aren't conquerors, but that we are liberators. Hopefully, no overzealous soldier will make the mistake of raising our flag again.

I think there's still fighting going on in and around Basra, dunno if it's truly liberated.

Some GI's got over zealous and raised a US flag, but that's issue has been addressed from on high, and while we shouldn't have seen it at all, we won't be seeing it anymore. Yorick, check your PMs. [ 03-22-2003, 12:19 PM: Message edited by: Ronn_Bman ]

I need to update the Rules post. Then you guys need to check the Rules post.
FIRST and FOREMOST, a Marine is a Marine. They raised Ol' Glory at Iwo Jima (sp) A Soldier is a Soldier, belongs to the Army. Know that you have been informed, keep it straight. Now, who's butt do I have to kick for screwing it up????
