It's an old story, but worth knowing about.

FARAH PROVINCE, Afghanistan

2/7 took a lot of casualty's. Some of my friends went as combat replacements. All the ones I know came back safely.

A friend told me. Every time they left the wire. They had a scanner and could hear the insurgents reporting how many vics and personal were in the convoy. One time, I guess, they were driving and the insurgents were talking over their com and was like "their about to hit the IED"

Good post.
