| During the last 24 hours, Task Force All American soldiers in Al Anbar conducted 160 patrols (including seven joint patrols with Iraqis). Task Force All American soldiers cleared one weapons cache, and conducted one cordon and search. In Fallujah, Task Force 1-504 soldiers conducted a cordon and search of a nine-building complex that resulted in an additional confiscation of munitions: twenty, 120 millimeter mortar rounds; eight, 155 millimeter artillery rounds; eight rocket-propelled grenade launchers; 20 sticks of TNT, and assorted improvised explosive device - making materiel. In the last 24 hours, Task Force All American soldiers had five enemy contacts; all were ineffective. We captured 10 Iraqi insurgents and suffered no Coalition casualties. At the border checkpoints, we denied entry to 150 personnel at Trebil and four at Husaybah – all because they lacked passports. No one was turned away at Tanif or Ar Ar. |
