Sir, you want to see these.

+++++include satellite photo sequence

This is a supply convoy seen by a KH-14 in infrared mode. Not enough
resolution for people, but usable.

Four BTRs escorting twelve trucks, coming from Akbar's base in Khamir.
The look interval is thirty seconds. Here, you see three of the BTRs on
fire, and the fourth is stopped and never moves or fires again. Now a
pause, eight minutes. Some IR speckling that's either just noise or
muzzle flashes, but no drama.

Then, whammo, in two frames every vehicle's burning like a torch and
three are exploding like it was the Fourth of July. Ammunition, maybe.

Anyway, my analysis is someone very professionally wiped out a supply
convoy. And right now I only know one friendly outside the Camp Two
wire.

Hope that's good news, sir.]<<<<<
