Coalition forces destroy terrorist mortar team
Coalition forces destroy terrorist mortar teamBAGHDAD Multi-National Corps Iraq attack aviation assets, responded to an indirect fire attack on Coalition forces, killing six terrorists in West Rashid March 20. The helicopters positively identified six men armed with AK-47 assault rifles, rocket propelled grenade launchers and a mortar tube and engaged with a Hellfire missile and 30 mm cannon fire. Soldiers from 4th Infantry Brigade Combat Team, 1st Infantry Division, responded to the scene and seized four RPGs, two RPK machine guns and a mortar tube. But what happened to the terrorists? Did they get away? Or was the Hellfire such a direct hit that there weren't any remains? Posted by: Glenmore 2008-03-21 |
