Russian soldiers drive past destroyed Georgian tanks in the South Ossetian capital of Tshinvali, August 10, 2008. Russian troops took most of the capital of the separatist Georgian region of South Ossetia on Sunday after a three-day battle but the United States condemned Moscow’s “dangerous and disproportionate” action. Russia poured troops and tanks across its southern border into tiny Georgia and bombed Georgian targets after Tbilisi attempted on Thursday evening to retake South Ossetia, a small pro-Russian province which broke away from Georgia in the 1990s – Photo from Reuters Pictures

South Ossetia separatist fighters rest near an armored vehicle in the town of Dzhava, South Ossetia, Saturday, Aug. 9, 2008. Russia expanded its bombing blitz Sunday against tiny neighbor Georgia, a U.S. ally, targeting the country’s capital for the first time.

A Russian soldier sits aboard an armored vehicle on the road to the border of the Georgian breakaway region of South Ossetia near the town of Alagir 30 km south of Vladikavkaz on Sunday, Aug. 10, 2008. Embattled Georgian troops pulled out of the disputed province of South Ossetia on Sunday, submitting to Russia’s far superior firepower, as international envoys headed in to try to end fighting between Russia and its tiny U.S.-allied neighbor. The retreat came after Russia expanded its bombing blitz Sunday, targeting Georgia’s capital for the first time and driving Georgian troops out of South Ossetia’s provincial capital of Tskhinvali with heavy shelling.

  1. e i berretti verdi usa che fanno?

  2. Il programma di assistenza militare e’ terminato nel maggio del 2004. Il 10th Special Forces Group di Fort Carson (Colorado) ha fornito gli elementi di consulenza e gli istruttori da Maggio 2002 a Febbraio 2003, dopo di che le Special Forces sono state rilevate dai Marines che hanno completato il lavoro. Il programma ha coinvolto, se la memoria non m’inganna, almeno quattro battaglioni di forze speciali e d’elite dell’esercito georgiano.

  3. Pare comunque che un intero SOG composto da “buffalo soldiers” sia impegnato in una missione segretissima dalle parti di treviso.

    Non ci sono particolari, tranne che il nome dell’operazione ovvero “Operation Trumpet”.

    giac

  4. Confermo. SOG fra l’altro comandato da un certo Colonnello DeCesari, consigliato dal Maggiore Giovannino detto “Er Pugnetta” e appoggiato da un battaglione da soma di buoi e asini montagnard. Insomma la creme de la creme!
