"They Just Fired Rifle"

Read then watch! 
They set their video camera on the bumper of their armored HMMMV, which they were using for cover. Keep an eye on the opposing direction van parked just down the street. On the audio you can hear them shooting back and forth. The rounds you can hear are from the Marines and the ones you hear pinging against the side of the vehicle with no accompanying pop are from the bad guys.
When the JTAC (Joint Terminal Attack Controller) says "They just fired rifle", that means the F-16 aircraft just launched the Maverick missile. You can hear it come in and see it strike the vehicle the bad guys were using for cover. Talk about pinpoint accuracy! End of story... for the bad guys.
Bottom line... when you are engaged against enemy on the ground, it is most comforting to have a JTAC, airborne or embedded with you, and you are able to call in some 'serious hurt' on the bad guys.
GO WITH THE FLOW !
