Six of the patrols were joint operations conducted with the Iraqi police, Iraqi Civil Defense Corps and the Department of Border Enforcement. Weapons and equipment confiscated in raids and patrols throughout the Task Force Ironhorse area of operations include 100 antipersonnel mines, seven rocket-launching tubes, 300 pounds of C-4 plastic explosive, 25 tubes of artillery propellant, 25 155 mm artillery rounds, 100 sabot tank rounds, two antiaircraft guns, 468 rounds of 12.7 mm antiaircraft ammunition, 84 boxes of other AA ammunition and three improvised explosive devices. 1st Infantry Division soldiers from 1st Squadron, 4th Cavalry Regiment discovered a cache of ammunition while on patrol northwest of Samarra Monday. The soldiers located the cache from information provided by an Iraqi citizen. The cache contained 100 sabot tank rounds, 25 tubes of 155 mm artillery propellant, various small-arms ammunition and 84 boxes of 12.7 mm antiaircraft ammunition. An explosive-ordnance team destroyed the cache that afternoon. A patrol of Task Force Danger Soldiers from 1st Battalion, 21st Infantry Regiment found a cache of antiaircraft weapons near Kirkuk Tuesday. The cache was transported to the 2nd Brigade, 25th Infantry Division for destruction. The Iraqi police reported that one individual was killed and four others were wounded when someone was attempting to make a bomb inside a house near Baqubah Monday. The wounded were transported to a Baqubah hospital for treatment and will be questioned later by the police. There were no coalition forces involved in the incident. Red wire or black wire? |
