a unit of the 3rd div made a "recon in force*" thru bagdad, and returned to the airport, US 1 tank damaged, 1 troop kia , 3 wounded, , iraq lost app. 1000 men and many T72's, BMP's ,arty, etc


* reconnaissance in force: is a probe to check out the enemy strength, position, etc. Unlike a regular recon patrol, recon in force does not avoid contact with the enemy and brings enough guns to fight with.
no recon patrol is desigened to take or hold ground, only to test the enemy defenses.



thats why your stupid russian TV could not find them.

BTW, Baroda, do you even play AH?  What name do you use in game?


No, I don't play AH. I said it many times before.

I play WB, but not at iEN servers. Use Google and try to find some things about Russian WB server. I am not going to advertise it here or post any links. Anyway I think you'll enjoy I-153 and Ki-27 :)

Armored column drove up a highway about to the center of mass of city then turned around near the bend in the tigris.  Never left the highway.  Shot up some vehicles, tracer fire obviosuly disabling the occupants.  First actual killing I think Ive seen in this conflict.  One of the landrovers appeared to turn arounf about 100 yrds out and was shot up as it fled.  Didnt seem to be a threat but couldnt really tell.    Oh well.......

Its called Freehost.  Software theft, but hey Its Russia.  What else could you hope for.

Bagdad is about 60 km diameter ... if the US soldier just entered Bagdad and if the Russian have done only 25km it's likely they don't meet no ?

Straffo, you try so hard to hop on the anti american bandwagon that you often don't research the facts before you post.

If you had, you would have seen the track the US took in their path through bagdhad.  This doesn't even bring into the equation the fact that a russian couldn't find his own arse with both hands.

Did the Russians happen to run into Saddam in their travels through Baghdad? It's only 60 km in diameter you know.

If a US soldier entered Baghdad and Baghdad is 60 km in diameter, how long must a Russian reporter  travel before he finds the US soldier assuming the Russian reporter has traversed 25 km?

LOL, sounds like an SAT question.

What a moron
