Watching it now on Discovery Times, basically about this Arkansas National Guard unit that gets sent to Iraq.
For one thing this is something the idiots running policy should be watching.
When they arrive in Iraq, of course their using way out-dated equipment and their HUMVEES aren't armored....so they start going through scrap piles pulling plates out, even throwing old flak jackets over their doors.
Then when they run out they use sandbags in trucks.
Right now their tearing down a Iraqi fellows fence that runs along the side of a road because it apparently has been used by people to hide behind while ambushing convoys, then they accidentially broke his water main....oiy
But the CO walks off after apologizing profously to the Iraqi, then walks off saying "My biggest fear was getting shot at, that didn't happen yet. My second biggest fear was cutting a water main, we sure as hell did that, my third biggest fear was pissing off the Iraqis, we did that five minutes after getting off the plane."
God this whole mess sucks
