New IED threat
FYI: While I have not seen or been on the recieving end of the IED. Supposedly the Allie Babas are deploying a shape-charge IED. Can defeat a armored SUV according to the grapevine. Likely learned from Hezbollah.
On the other hand another gringo friend of mine's convoy was engaged on Rt Huskie. Allie Baba's linier kill zone was 1300 meters long. Used 4 PKMs , approxmantly 20 AKs, iniated with a IED. After the firefight score was 9 KIAs for the bad guys , only 1 lightly WIA good guy. Also none of the Coalition vehicles had been hit by small arms fire.
Thats the latest from around Baghdad
