Thank you, Sir. I love primary source data.

"The regime ordered the distribution of ammunition around the country to support a prolonged war with the coalition, but not to support the insurgency or a guerilla war."

Huh, always wondered about that.

I like this statement:

“Ground truth is getting the red side, or enemy’s, perspective from red,” said Cucolo. “Looking at the enemy’s actions through American military eyes,” or even through the eyes of an expert trained in the enemy’s battle and culture, is valuable, “but it’s still a friendly’s view of red.”

I guess the thought of the more door-kickers doesn't work well with this statement. SF; Gumby of the battlefield.


Great link, thanks BMT
