Some details that were missing from most of the earlier reports of the attack by the Russo-Shia Regime forces on a US Special Forces backed force... outcome is the same -- but it was no accident the attack occurred and went to high levels. Think they may need to recruit some more mercs to replace all the ones sent home to Moscow in bodybags..

Another article I read today said intercepted cell calls put the casualties at 200-250 and destruction of all their vehicles except for one tank and one BRDM, which got smoked in the next engagement. Proxy wars can be a dangerous game.

They also can be a boom for IW efforts if a nation is willing to apply them towards another "issue" . This is a perfect example - NATO articles looking at the Joint applications of fire support and lookiing at this battle.....make sense when looking at the Baltics. It is a reminder that numbers games have historical answers..
