Good afternoon.
"Over there"
Just a few things off the top of my head
High value interrogations generally are done with a team and not a Colonel.
A few other things didn't jive, were unrealistic, they had a radio to call CAS in with but never bothered calling for reinforcements. After all the time being pinned down they never took any direct action to displace or go on on the offensive. The two gals being present again for some reason. They let the attackers get into position because no one was on security. The Soldier putting himself in a position to be attacked by the detainee.
I almost forgot;
When you go through all the trouble to locate something like ground to air missiles, you don't call in an air strike, you go and get them. This insures all the missile are accounted for.

Thanks for pointing that out. My suspicions are confirmed. One other question, are Pakistani troops actively in Iraq for the reasons portrayed last night?

I honestly don't know about the Pakistanis in Iraq. As for turning detainees over to "Arab nation" interrogation, that does happen, but even those are not like it was described on the show.
