I have been on in some planning phases also. What you have is lots of
background people. Who is going to watch the monitor, who is going to make
the call that its really a bad guy, who is going to refuel the
"plane/drone", who is.....the list is longer than you would like to know.
sweeping all the time.....ever look at how big Iraq really is? try to sweep
the state of Texas of trash, that is about how it would be. Imagine the
manpower you would waste keeping up the "trash". I know life has no cost,
but I have been over here twice in 2 years and I know Im coming back in a
few months again.......so how costly is it?
personnel. But when your up against a HUGE mine, it doesnt matter
anymore.......its guerilla warfare.

passing over the hwy's every few minutes 24/7 to catch the people planting
the IED's in Iraq? It must take more then 5 minutes to bury them or hide
them. I think they will think twice on trying to plant them if they end up
dead each time. Any thoughts??
