CHESTER HAS MOVED!: Abrams Destroyed

Abrams Destroyed

Rather than assuming the bomb was enormous, one might think it was an anti-tank mine, command-detonated. The question is, how old was the mine? Most Iraqi inventories were old stuff. If they are getting their hands on newer generation AT mines, that is not good news.

Syria had better make sure that none of the Kornet AT-14 anti-tank missiles which it recently purchased in large quantities from East Europe turn up in Iraq. US intelligence has recorded their serial numbers to identify their source. DEBKAfile’s military sources add: Because he cannot afford to buy advanced fighter planes and tanks, Assad purchased massive quantities of the “third generation” Kornet AT-14 anti-tank weapons.

Just in case any are found in Iraq, General Casey, commander of US forces in Iraq has already received orders from the commander-in-chief in the White House to pursue military action inside Syria according to his best military judgment.

I think the armored vehicle destroyed was another Bradley, as opposed to an Abrams. First, I've not seen this account anywhere else, and on the same day a Bradley was hit by an IED which killed two and wounded four soldiers.

I suspect somebody confused a Bradley with an Abrams. Additionally, I believe an Abrams only has a crew of four and it doesn't seem likely that six men would be casualties of an attack on an Abrams.

Nevertheless, the destruction of two Bradley fighting vehicles, from the same unit, in less than five days is something to be concerned about. I've read speculation that these IEDs consisted of two artillery shells wired to explode simultaneously on command.

Those soldiers killed were with the Lousiana Army National Guard, 256th Combat Brigade.

Most of the soldiers who perished were from Houma, Louisiana.

Good, hard fighting Southern boys.

God Bless Them and Thiers.
