Forward Base Falcon Disaster



Baghdad's sky is illuminated by huge explosions in the Iraqi capital
(pic AAP)

Baghdad verlicht door enorme explosies.



Late on the evening of October 10, 2006, Iraqi resistance groups lobbed
mortar and rocket rounds into the immense ‘Forward Base Falcon,' the
largest American military base in Iraq, located 13 km south of the Green
Zone in Baghdad. In addition to accurate mortar fire, Grad and Katyusha
rockets were also used.

Mortier en raketaanval op de enorme VS basis 13 km zuidelijk van green zone.



Falcon base was designed to house a large contingent of American troops,
mostly drawn from the 4th Infantry Division, stationed at Fr. Bliss,
Texas. At the time of the attack, there were approximately 3000 men
inside the camp, which also was filled with ammunition supplies, fuel,
tanks and vehicles.

3000 bezetters waren in het kamp dat was gevuld met ammunitie voorraden,
brandstof en voertuigen.



Iraqi contractors had assisted in the construction of the camp, which
occupied nearly a square mile and was surrounded with guard
tower-studded high concrete walls, and it is now apparent that the
Resistance movement had been given important targets from "sources
familiar with the layout" of the base.

Irakese aannemers hebben geholpen met de bouw en de bouwplannen
doorgespeeld aan het verzet.


After the initial shelling, fuel and ammunition stores began to erupt
with massive explosions that could be heard, and seen, miles away inside
the Green Zone where U.S. military and diplomatic units were heavily
guarded.

Na de beschieting begonnen ammunitie en brandstofdepo's te exploderen.



The explosions, all of them termed "immense" by BBC reporters, continued
throughout the night.

De gehele nacht waren de explosies te horen.



In response, US aircraft indiscriminately rocketed and bombed various
parts of the city, BBC and AFP correspondents eported, trying to knock
out the launch sites of the rockets

In reactie daarop gingen VS vliegtuigen de lucht in en begonnen delen
van Baghdad te bombarderen.

The BBC's Andrew North, in Baghdad, said the explosions started at about
2300 (2100 BST) and were becoming "ever more frequent" as the huge fires
spread throughout the base, punctuated by tremendous explosions as more
fuel and ammunition dumps ignited.

Steeds meer brandstof en ammunitie depo's gingen de lucht in.

"Intelligence indicates that civilians aligned with a militia
organization were responsible for last night's mortar attack," said
Lieutenant Colonel Jonathan Withington, spokesman for the U.S. 4th
Infantry Division.



An after action report, issued by the Department of Defense, stated
that: "On October 10, 2006, at approximately 10:40 p.m., a 82mm mortar
round, fired by militia forces from a residential area in Abu T-Shir,
caused a fire at an Ammunition Supply Point (ASP) at FOB Falcon. The
ASP, containing tank and artillery rounds, in addition to smaller
caliber ammunition, set off a series of large explosions. About 100
troops from the 4th Infantry Division were reported to be stationed at
the base at the time, but no injuries were reported." (Emphasis added.)
"The damage to the area will not degrade the operational capability of
MND-B (Multinational Division Baghdad),"

De vernietigingen van de opslagplaatsen zal de operationele capaciteit
van de bezetter verminderen.

When the flames had been brought under control on the morning of the
11th of October, primarily because the entire camp had been gutted, nine
large American military transports with prominent Red Cross markings
were observed by members of the foreign media taking off, laded with the
dead and the wounded.

Toen de vlammen onder controle waren (het kamp was grotendeels
vernietigd) werden negen grote militaire vrachtwagens met rode kruizen
erop die de doden en gewonden vervoerden gezien.

Over 300 American troops, including U.S. Army and Marines, CIA agents
and U.S. translators were casualties and there also were 165 seriously
injured requiring major medical attention and 39 suffering lesser
injuries 122 members of the Iraqi armed forces were killed and 90
seriously injured members of same, were also evacuated to the U.S.
military hospital at al-Habbaniyah located some 70km west of Baghdad.

Meer dan 300 slachtoffers waaronder CIA agenten en vertalers.

Satellite pictures and aerial photographs from neutral sources showed
that Camp Falcon suffered major structural damage and almost all the
U.S. military's supply of small arms ammunition, artillery and rocket
rounds, tons of fuel, six Apache helicopters, an uncounted but large
number of soft-skinned vehicles such as Humvees and supply trucks were
damaged or totally destroyed. Foreign press observers noted "an endless
parade" of military vehicle recovery units dragging burnt-out heavy
tanks and armored personnel carriers to another base outside Baghdad.

Satteliet foto's van neutrale bronnen lieten een structureel vernietigd
kamp zien en haast alle voorraden kleine wapens en ammunitie was
verloren gegaan. Zes Apache helicopters en een onbekend aantal
voertuigen waren vernietigd. Buitenlandse waarnemers zagen een eindeloze
rij militaire voertuigen herstelunits die uitgebrande tanks en andere
voertuigen naar een basis buiten Baghdad brachten.

Many of the walls and towers of the camp were damaged or leveled as were
many of the barracks, maintenance depots, and there was considerable
damage to the huge mess halls that could hold 3000 soldiers, the huge
recreation center with its basketball courts and indoor swimming pools
and all the administration buildings

Sorry verkeerd gelezen.

Maar je snapt zelf ook wel dat met zulke schade het vermogen om
operaties uit te voeren toch wel zal veminderen. Of de dode militairen
moeten een vervroegde wederopstanding krijgen.

Mijn dag ook als jij jezelf een bomgordel omdoet.
Dat jij dit kan en mag schrijven, heb je aan de Amerikanen te danken.
Vrijheid in Europa.
