Marine Corps Gen. John Allen told a Pentagon news conference Wednesday that forces learned where the insurgents had fled to and killed them in an early Monday morning air strike.
Killing any number of rabble Taliban does not even the scales of losing our highly trained forces--especially our special forces. But it is good that the enemy didn't live to boast very long.
Never forget that victory is the ultimate objective. Make sure that the enemy dies for nothing and that our losses can be justified by what we achieve.
