Talk:Forward Operating Base Falcon
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
[edit] No casualties?
[1] Is this true? There are two photos, along with a large list of names. If this is actually real, then it was a major disaster, I mean, 300 dead... :o --Planetary 23:28, 23 October 2006 (UTC)
- Good question. One comment I've read about the supposed list of names is the lack of female names, which is unrepresentative of US forces currently in Iraq. Some links and discussion on Wonkette. -- Infrogmation 02:38, 2 November 2006 (UTC)
I know this isn't a credited source, but I can say as a soldier currently at Falcon, who was there on that crazy night, that not one person died from this. Most if not all people at Falcon were inside a reinforced structure right after the mortars started landing, so by the time the major explosions started, everyone was inside. The explosions were loud and big, but were not especially close to most people living on the base. The reason for the explosions being so loud and big was because of all the amreican made artillary blowing up at the same time.--217.26.84.76 12:53, 14 February 2007 (UTC)
Why are we even entertaining this garbage. Of course the enemy will come out with claimed kills. This is what some may say is PROPOGANDA. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Patlpp (talk • contribs) 15:12, 28 March 2008 (UTC)
[edit] FOB Falcon
It's not a "camp" Falcon is a FOB. No one calls it "Camp Falcon". Camps are much bigger. How do we change it?
