Operation Swarmer
The media is treating this operation as something unique, but readers of this blog , and Honest News, know this sort of stuff is occuring constantly by our greatMilitary in Iraq and elsewhere:
More than 1,500 Coalition troops and Iraqi security forces along with 200 tactical vehicles and 50 aircraft have launched the largest air assault operation since Operation Iraqi Freedom began in March 2003. Operation Swarmer began this morning in southern Salah Ad Din province to clear a suspected insurgent operating area northeast of Samarra. Troops from the Iraqi Army’s 1st Bridgade, 4th Division and Soldiers from the 101st Airborne Division’s 3rd Brigade Combat Team and the 101st Combat Aviation Brigade began conducting a combined air and ground assault to isolate the objective area.
