RED PLATOON KICKING ASS---"LET THE BODIES HIT THE FLOOR"---(MIND-BLOWING ACTION VIDEO)

Red Platoon is seen in various combat situations that are both dramatic and graphic.

This blogger has been getting confidential reports which indicate the situation in Iraq is still very, very dangerous for the elite units who go out on patrol.

We have also been told by inside sources that the Taliban are getting stronger in Afghanistan and the 30,000 troops President Obama wants to deploy to Afghanistan is not going to make that much of a difference.

A top US military commander in Afghanistan has told Vice President Joe Biden that a "surge" operation won't work in Afghanistan, and we could be in for a very, very long haul in Afghanistan.
