Michael Yon - 'Battle For Mosul III: Prelude'

Topics: Iraq

Michael Yon's new piece on what's really happening on the ground in Iraq is up. As usual it's another must read.

On the tactical, combat level, oftentimes during night missions, for instance, I was disadvantaged in keeping up with American soldiers; my new night vision gear, paid for by gracious readers, will close that gap. My camera and computer gear are also undergoing upgrades, enabling better performance in harsh environments. As to my own protective gear, I'll have better and more of it. It may subject me to a lot of ribbing from soldiers, but I've seen a lot of folks shot and blown up this year, and am doing my best to avoid that fate.

During this temporary re-quipping and organizing phase, I will also post a few more dispatches about Iraq. One of these, Battle for Mosul IV, I tried to post many times from Mosul, only to have the fighting interrupt the writing.

Be sure to read it all...
