Marines Continue to Press Gains in Dahaneh

Fox News reports from Helmand Province:

The Marines are going house to house, they’re going compound to compound to make sure that there are no militants remaining and they’re doing it while the Taliban that the Marines didn’t kill yesterday try to kill these Marines today.

(Good pics at that link, and others.)

According to almost all reports I’ve read, this is a town and an area where Timmy Taliban hasn’t been opposed by coalition troops much, if at all. Well now, it’s nice to see that change. We mourn the losses of our brothers, and we feel for the boys taking it to the enemy wearing several dozen pounds of gear in hideous heat. Yet, it must be done, and the sooner the better. Go get ‘em, Marines!

    Perhaps, unless you’re the Golf Co CO! Seriously, I think there’s plenty of “fun” to go around.
