CAMP TAJI, Iraq – Multi-National Division – Baghdad Soldiers detained a suspected al-Qaeda leader north of Tarmiyah, Iraq in the early morning hours of April 20.
Along with the suspected terrorist cell leader, Soldiers from the 1st “Ironhorse” Brigade Combat Team, 1st Cavalry Division detained 14 other individuals suspected of insurgent activity.
Working off tips from local residents that insurgents were operating out of two houses in the area, Ironhorse troopers from the 2nd Battalion, 8th Cavalry Regiment were able to execute the arrests. This was just one of several recent tips from local villagers that have led to the capture of key al-Qaeda suspects, helping to reduce the level of violence in the area.
No U.S. Soldiers were killed or wounded during the operation.
All 15 suspects were detained for further questioning.
I hope the troops publish another sign mocking Reid the way they did the patronizing Kerry.
Harry reid is cheerleading for these vermin. Pathetic and treasonous.
