#2 Looks like we're making a lotta lemonade out of the lemon of a jailbreak.

#3 including many believed to have escaped during a mass jail break last week

They let 'em outta jail so they could shoot 'em? Interesting tactic.

#5 Jailbreakers eh?

Shoot them in the courtyard and you have "atrocity" headlines in the west. Shoot them on the battlefield, and its completely ignored for the most part since thats an allied success.

#6 Should've stayed inside, boys. 3 hots and a cot is a lot better then gunships hunting down and blowing away your sorry asses.

#7 This is Afghanistan. I imagine in prison you stink in a cell with 30 other guys, then once a day they give you a bucket of cooked rice. You figure out how to divvy it up.

#9 I b'lieve the inline comments are in Fred's post-it note yellow, not the highlighter yellow used by regular posters, 3dc. Too, dear GolfBravoUSMC doesn't commonly reference Classical Period battles.
