The platoon leader said jackpot was almost an understatement, as they unearthed a 20-pound bag of homemade explosives, switches, conductors, Bulgarian rockets, four RPG launchers, 66 RPG rockets, fuses, 30 RPG propellant rods, a container of RPG parts, eight fragmentary grenades, 27 81mm mortar rounds, 44 60mm mortar rounds, and various other ammunition and explosives paraphernalia. First question, were these leftovers from the days of Saddam? Probably not. Were they smuggled in form Iran or Syria? The finding of these is a great and good thing, how they got into the hands of terrorists is a bigger thing. Securing boarders is as critical as finding weapons caches.
