First, a big hooah! for the zoomie on station:

An F-15 Strike Eagle passes over the Iraqi village of Talladhahad during an air assault mission to capture a suspected insurgent on Thanksgiving morning. Rakkasans from 1st Squadron, 33rd Cavalary, along with Iraqi forces from the 20th Strategic Infrastructure Battalion, conducted the operation with air support from the USAF and attack aviation support from 1st Battalion, 101st Combat Aviation Brigade.

Private First Class James Demoss, 19, from Nashville, an intelligence analyst in 1st Squadron, 33rd Cavalary Regiment, occupies a security position outside a suspected insurgent's house. The Rakkasans conducted an air assault mission in the village of Talladhahad, east of the Tigris River near Bayji, on Thanksgiving morning to capture an enemy arms dealer.
