    in todays Irish Indo,there was a piece saying a reconnaisance team was being sent to Chad to assess the risks facing Irish troops there.
    Quote taken from military.ie main page/news:''Yesterday, the Minister of Defence Mr. Willie O'Dea T.D. approved a recconaisance operation to crisis hit Chad/Darfur, in anticipation of a Defence Forces contribution to a EU/UN multinational deployment to the region.

    The precise size and nature of this contribution will depend on the outcome of the recconaisance operation.''

    also in the article in the paper was that the Army Rangers will be the first Irish troops on the ground(odds are they are probably taking part in the recon mission).they will be tasked with protecting Army engineers who will be constructing an Irish HQ their for the operation.they will be sent in next month.then when the full force is being sent out,we will contribute 350 troops(as well as ARW).exciting developments!!:D
