FOB LOYALTY, July 6, 2006 - The Headquarters Platoon of Troop A, 1st Squadron, 61st Cavalry Regiment, 4th Brigade Combat Team, 101st Airborne Division, Multi-National Division - Baghdad, recovered three improvised rocket launchers near Jurf Al-Nedaaf Monday after receiving a tip from an Iraqi citizen. One of the launchers found had a rocket loaded in the tube and appeared to have been aimed at the 4th Battalion, 1st National Police Division headquarters; explosive ordnance disposal personnel recovered and disarmed the rocket. "While it's not a huge cache, it was an Iraqi citizen that informed us of it. That in itself is a big deal because it shows the Iraqi people don't support the insurgency," said CPT Ivan Anaya, commander, Troop A. |
