!!'WE DON'T HAVE ENOUGH POWER TO FIGHT!!

Three weeks into the fight in the volatile Arghandab Valley, an American platoon of the Army's 101st Airborne Division is heading to the rear, weakened by horrific war injuries and unable to continue its mission. The platoon -- 1st platoon, Alpha Battery, 1st Battalion, 320 Field Artillery Regiment, of the 101st Airborne Division -- started the mission with 17 men, and now is down to nine. Combat Outpost Nolen has seen some of the most intense fighting in Kandahar Province.
This area is critical to U.S. control of the region because it's a main supply route into the city of Kandahar for the Taliban. It's also treacherous for the platoon trying to carry out its mission.

I was over there, in this video. The action in the video was a normal everyday (except the memorial service). 1st Platoon would return after getting its replacement manpower. I am not part of that Unit (I was attached from another unit), but in my opinion A Btry served with distinction and did their own division proud.

@punisher0276 Mitt romeny? Where can i find more information about this guy?

[punisher0276]

NCOs are the key to this war. Teach your troops to shoot past effective range. PT before deployments way over the Army standards. I cannot over emphasize how lethal a good marksman is by your side and the confidence it inspires. Teach your junior NCOs how to medevac wounded, call for fire, and skill level 3 tasks. I have been there. I helped rescue B 3/75th in the market and it was no picnic. They had none of the support they were promised because of DC. It was NCOs that kept it going.

As for mr Anti American I have spent much time advising the possible next president Mitt Romney. You will wish you were never born. I and other retired sneior NCOs have advised him of these conditions. We will make you pay for your sins and you will die a slow and painful death. It's called napalm and it will be brought back into service as soon as this weak president is gone.

[punisher0276]

You make me wish I never retired. I would teach you how to make the little bastards die faster. The leadership should be impeached for depriving you of the assets you deserve. That is why I am very involved in this next election to make sure it never happens again. You need a president that cares.
