RELEASE No. 20070220-01
MOSUL, Iraq – On Feb. 16, soldiers from the 3rd Battalion, 4th Brigade, 2nd Iraqi Army Division once again teamed with troops from D Co., 2nd Battalion, 7th Cavalry Regiment, and executed a raid against a possible cache of military ordnance in the Domiz neighborhood of eastern Mosul.
The operation was successful and the joint raid netted two 60mm mortar tubes, 20 60mm mortar rounds, 25 grenades and a rocket-propelled grenade launcher with 25 rounds. Ten miscellaneous vehicle license plates were also confiscated. No detainees were found at the scene.
The pairing of Iraqi army and Iraqi police units with Soldiers from 2-7 Cavalry has netted numerous caches in the past weeks, as well as precipitated a large number of suspected insurgents being detained with evidence of illegal weapons, smuggling or bomb-making materials.
