    • Another Iraqi soldier asks me a question, if his unit is going into the city first. "No. We go in together." As soon as that is translated, the Iraqis break out in cheers over this news. They must have thought they'd be going in first as cannon fodder. Now they hug one another and start to sing.[1]
