another unit in the triagle of death[edit]

I served with 3rd Battalion 505th PIR in that area in 2003-2004. So, I added it to the page. There are a few photos of our unit that can be found on the net if more evidence is needed of this. We were based out of FOB St Michael in Muhammadiyah. We operated in Yusifiyah, Latifiyah, Iskandaria, as well as Muhammadiyah. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 214.13.213.27 (talk) 07:23, 26 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Sources[edit]

Look, this article looks kind of fine, but there's currently not a single source. The one source that was included I had to remove, due to it being proven to be false since it was written (more precisely the claim that the snatch of the two American paratroopers was a retaliation for the mass murder and rape of a local family earlier. It turned out to be so that the terrorists responsible for the act decided to take advantage of the fate of the family after it became known, and had not been aware of it at the time of the snatch and torture, murders and beheadings). So, sources. Pavuvu (talk) 23:34, 12 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Great. Now look what you've done. — TORTOISE WRATH 20:49, 18 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

This article looks ridiculous, someone edit the highly-unreadable sources listing --192.223.243.6 (talk) 13:44, 28 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

asked for sources - got sources. I'd say it's one of my comrads who were stationed there with me Countered (talk) 08:37, 28 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I've rolled it back, removed the unnecessary part and tagged with lack of inline references. The article looks better and feels better then that disruptive inline sourcing. ChrisGualtieri (talk) 04:52, 17 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]
