mzilakazi: Israeli army does not face attack by hundreds of insurgents hitting a small remote FOB, what they face is rocket firing across borders by Hamas. No soldier can fight without bullets, he has to withdraw. The Israeli soldiers who were not smart enough to withdraw when heavily outnumbered and running out of ammunition got captured by Egyptian army in their last Arab-Israeli war. Break army tactical rules, suffer death or captivity. The soldiers in Baga FOB were well trained in combat tactical rules, so they knew when to withdraw as ammunition finished. If they are cowards as you guys wrongly say, they won't stand and fight for 7 hours until last bullet . 1 Like |

agaugust: We never abandoned our base, we fought until the enermy gave in. I fail to understand why do we keep on discussing about the incident which happened two years ago while avoiding the incident which took place just on Saturday. |

mzilakazi: Why would soldiers refuse to use their T-72 for a whole 7 hour battle and choose to fight on foot instead? No wonder you think SASOL controls Nigerian oil industry. By the way, how old are you? Just curious because of the way you think... |

mzilakazi: Honest reporters say it's NOT in Nigeria, the base is a border FOB and honest reporters confirmed it was guarded by multinational force when the battle started.

agaugust: All that we know is that Baba is right in Nigeria. A border town or do you disown Baga now chief, because of the embarrassment. So how does your source differ with this source that I have posted some while ago? RELIGIOUS TERROR Boko Haram fighters overpower multinational force in attack at Nigeria-Chad border BAUCHI, Nigeria – Boko Haram Islamic extremists have overpowered a multinational military force and seized its key base on Nigeria's border with Chad, according to residents who took to canoes to escape. Scores of soldiers and civilians were killed, while others drowned in Lake Chad, Nigerians taking refuge in a Chadian village said in cell phone calls Sunday night. They said insurgents fired rocket-propelled grenades and automatic assault rifles and hurled explosives. "They came in their hundreds driving several Hilux patrol vehicles, trucks and some were on motorcycles and immediately began to throw explosives and bombs," fisherman Audu Labbo told The Associated Press. He and others reached by phone Sunday night said the troops from Nigeria and its neighbors Chad, Cameroon and Niger fought on Saturday until they ran out of ammunition. Details on the attack were slow getting out of the remote area. Some soldiers removed their uniforms and threw away their rifles, Labbo said. A senior security officer in Maiduguri, the capital of Borno state, confirmed that the military base at Baga is under the control of the insurgents. He said the multinational force fled because it received no reinforcements despite holding out for several hours. The officer spoke on condition of anonymity because he is not authorized to give information to reporters. There are fears the extremists could use Baga as a base to attack Maiduguri, some 125 miles to the southwest. Labbo said the insurgents' bombs and grenades set aflame several buildings that burned to the ground -- businesses, government offices, homes and part of the military base. Boko Haram has been regionalizing the conflict with recent attacks on Chadian villages and a military base. Thousands of people have died and some 1.6 million have been driven from their homes in the 5-year-old Islamic extremist uprising. http://www.foxnews.com/world/2015/01/05/boko-haram-fighters-overpower-multinational-force-in-attack-at-nigeria-chad/ One thing that Nigerian soldiers are nototious about is removing the uniform and throw away rifles. Seems that even their authorities are comfortable with that kind of reckless behavior by soldiers. 1 Like |

agaugust: It depend largely on the attack. When the fire is too hot no soldier can attempt to leave his cover and compromise his life. Soldiers will normally wait until fire subsides in order to run to the tanks. The question is what if the rate of fire does not slow down a bit and you are being overwhelmed by immense amount of bullets and RPGs. I guess you will give in and run for your life. |
