Soldiers with F Troop, 4th U.S. Cavalry - the Brigade Reconnaissance Troop for the 3rd Brigade Combat Team, 1st Infantry Division - battle Iraqi insurgents in Buhritz, a suburban town just south of Baqubah, Iraq. This exclusive video was shot by M. Scott Mahaskey of Military Times.

You don't see it in the video, but the bradley was hit by an RPG and still continued the re-supply

bah, I linked it from my units private forum.  I'm going to have to remove the pic until I can find some webspace to put it on.

As soon as Deviant Art is working again I'll put it up in my page.

It seems deviant art doesn't let people link to images on the site, I suppose to cut down on the huge amounts of bandwidth they use.
Here is a link to the page it is on.

Pretty intense clip....

In the pictures of the tank showing the hit by the RPG, is that side panel reactive armor? Or just normal armor?...(or is reactive armor still in development and not used yet?) Just curious.

Wow, a lot of rds 'down range there! I reckon there is still many with ringing ears!

Good clip though.

Cheers,
