Never Bring A Knife

To a gun fight. You might get hurt.

I joined one feint attack of Afghan soldiers last Friday that came under fierce Taliban fire in a village on the outskirts of Musa Qala -- AK47s and heavy machine gun fire opened up on us as we advanced across open ground. The British and Afghans counterattacked backed by U.S. special forces who opened up with 50-caliber fire and by calling three F16 strikes and a B1 bomber strike.

Sorry folks. My little picture format was changed when accepted. Don't know why. Imagine an arc made of the above smaller dashes.
