Iraq's Ambush Alley

In March of 2003, the Marine Corps sent two columns north across the Iraqi desert to help the Army seize Baghdad. Planners knew that if there was going to be trouble, it would happen on a stretch of road between two bridges in Nasiriyah. They were right. SHOOTOUT details what happened when a convoy of supply trucks took a wrong turn onto "Ambush Alley." With escape in sight, the Marines found themselves in a heated firefight with black-robed Fedayeen fighters. Over the next several hours, they tried to fight their way out, save their wounded comrades and complete their mission.

I love shootout. It would be great if PR made that kind of map for the USMC.

Almost everything that could go wrong went wrong, and the US forces had a crapload of bad luck. Shows you that plans often don't survive the first contact with the enemy.

Also, did they call the A-10 a "bomber-fighter?"

It would be great if PR took the spec ops model and changed the guy's cover to an octagonal shape (standard usmc) or a black skull cap even. Also if they changed the name from "spec ops" to "Force Recon" or something similar... I'm sure that's been mentioned somewhere anyway.

Guess the "Swedish warriors" didn't do the proper research. :O
