| #3 Tom Brokaw is now reporting that the 1st Marines may have taken the Iraqi town of al Qasyr near the border. They should be nearing contact with the Iraqi Regular Army's 51st Mechanized Division. Ted Koppel's (who's with the 3rd ID) just said that the 3rd ID crossed the border to support a Longbow helo that was apparently shot down by ground fire (small arms). They established a security perimeter and the Longbow crew was able to repair the helo and fly it back across the border. |
