Do you have any documentation of this? I know the airforce uses them, but I haven't heard of any boots on the ground with them. I have talked to well over 30 people who have been to Iraq.

EDIT: I have absolutely no sympathy for this woman. It is a war zone, people get shot.

A soldier in one of my friend's platoon saw a truck coming towards their check point. They got 1 warning shot, then he opened up the 50cal on them. Good thing too. There were enough explosives inside the truck to kill him and his friends 10 times over.
