Pathetic, no wonder it is so hard for us to win, clear cut cases like this should be engage on sight with no permission granting needed. Glad atleast they finally got them all.

The problem? As we've seen in the past, sometimes indecision gives the enemey, even in clear cut cases such as this, the necessary time to escape.

If it is a good shoot, than it is a good shoot.... shouldn't take going up and down the chain of command six times to determine that.

There were friendly's on the ground. Once you squeeze the trigger, there is no pause button and them chain guns are unleashing hell. Any friendly scouts? Undetermined's? I got no problem with a procedure and, in this case, it worked and no good guys got hurt.
