"F troop" in Baghdad.
Anyone remember that show in the 60's "F Troop?" The show begins with the one guy stooting off the canon for revelee and blows up the guard tower?

Well anyway, the NYT reports it's business as usual with our allies the Iraqi army these days in Sadr City, where there has been a slight "uptick" in all-out warfare.

"Company B’s medics were kept busy through the day. Two Iraqi soldiers were brought in the morning after being wounded by the backblast of one of their own rocket-propelled grenades. A third was wounded by a round from an M-16, a weapon recently provided to Iraqi troops."

Great, with freinds like these . . . as long as they aim right at you, you're safe.
