My Division for Vietnam has arrived! Got get em Big 4th! The Ivy Division. First on Utah Beach @ Normandy! The 101st Abn Div was right up in front of them back in 1944. The 101st is up there waiting on them to come rushing up to support them again! Two great divisions with great histories ready to plant Sad-damn.

Yes. It was the first division to get equipped to the "Army XXI" standard.

Yes they are the most technically advanced. They have been converted to all digital communication with the entire organization linked as a single entity.

Every day we get stronger and Saddam gets weaker.

The 4th ID has over 100 of our best tanks, the M1A2SEP, the finest battle tank in the world.

My father's WWII division! Yes, once the Big 4th is sent in, Sad-damn's hours are numbered.

Sorry guys, I think the Air Force may have planted him some time ago. You can have Iziz though, and any of the rest of the Baath Party leadership still left sucking wind.

It is the "Borg" division. Everything connected to everything else. Real time digitized info passed from platform to platform, unit to unit. What one sees, all see. There has never been anything quite like it before.

I personally think the 4th ID is going to be handling more problems than just Iraq. Just my own opinion.
