| United States ground forces have engaged in combat with Saddam Hussein's "most prized forces" in southern Baghdad, a U.S. Marine official said late Monday. "In our own terms and in our own time, we'll continue the attack to defeat those fielded forces," said Col. Tom Bright, Marine Corps chief at the U.S. Central Command's joint operations center in Qatar, in an interview on CNN's Larry King Live. "Now, the fight's on to reduce those prize forces that he has," Bright said. Previously, Baghdad has been attacked only by coalition aircraft. The Few. The Proud. The Marines!!! |

| #3 Of course the story changed now to "south of Baghdad" and more recently "around Baghdad". I knew this would happen but I sorta wanted to be first to break the news on Rantburg. The headline is still accurate though :) |
