    Bravo Company gets an order to treat any Iraqi, holding a weapon, as a hostile.

    Really looking forward to how this plays out

    Very much enjoyed this - the long moments of boredom followed by moments of terror. We got to see how orders get screwed up but the company takes the blame and how people have to kow-tow to the various ranks.

    The shots along the road, outside the city, with all the various bodies was damn freaky and really quite disturbing. Ditto for some of the scenes in the devastated city.

    Beautiful closing shot too.

    Watched the 2nd EP last night, finally some action! I like it so far, very like Jarhead in showing the boredom and frustration of the grunts on the ground.
    I don't know anyone's name yet (just like the Wire I suppose). Only downside is that EP2 definitely increases the cliche factor towards the end.

    Captain America FCUK YEAH!

    THought it was good. Action was decent and I dont think they are hamming it up to much.

    One thing I do find hard to follow is the command structure. Dont know whats going on there
