I heard that a RG Division was in reserve north of Baghdad to counter us as we near Baghdad.. Now with this force and who knows what else we will airlift into that base...just made the Iraqis job defending Baghdad a lot harder.

They had to get something in from the North to make the Iraqis. It is starting to make total sense with all of the bombardments up in the North. And the noose is starting to tighten.

I don't know that you could resupply an armored division from an airport. The logistics would be a nightmare.

You're right, though. It would definitely tie up an Iraqi division just to make sure we didn't come down unopposed with Bradleys and choppers.
