When Capt. Zinni spotted the four men planting the booby trap on the afternoon of Feb. 17, the first thing he did was call his lawyer.
"Judge!" he yelled.
Capt. Matthew Andrew, judge advocate for 1st Battalion, 6th Marine Regiment, advises the battalion about when it is legal to order the airstrikes. He examined the figures on the video feed closely. "I think you got it," Capt. Andrew said, giving the OK for the strike.

Red tape...red tape...red tape. Ya know. I don't think we have enough. Let's get some more to wrap around...everyone...doing anything...anywhere...
I'm surprised Ry doesn't have to ask to use the hall pass to go to the restroom at work.
it must be pretty frustrating to be the people "down on the ground" or "on the front lines" or whatever, who can see what's going on and make a judgement right then, but then they have to wait for approval... arg!
