Iraq
U.S. base in Mosul rocketed
2009-03-04
Aswat al-Iraq: Eight Katyusha rockets hit the U.S. base in southern Mosul on Tuesday, a police source said. "The rockets landed on the U.S. base in al-Ghezlani region in southern Mosul," the source told Aswat al-Iraq news agency.

"U.S. choppers were seen hovering over the area after the attack," he added, without giving further details.

#4  Base, is that one of the big FOBs, or are we talking about one of the little neighborhood outposts?

Eight katyusha rounds is a fairly substantial stonk. That could do a hell of a lot of damage if it was on target.

Always happy to oblige. It's one of my favorites.
