In Iraq, a squadron leader named only as Major Paul, described how the Australian troops captured a group of suspected Iraqi fighters hiding out in a cement factory.

Instead of attacking the factory, they called in a US fighter jet to break the sound barrier. The sonic boom scared those hiding in the factory.

"The result was that the people came running out with their arms up."

A senior US Army officer praised the Australian SAS.

"The Australian SAS displayed those kind of things that make them the elite, in my view, of small unit infantrymen throughout the world," Lieutenant General Frank Hagen Beck, Army deputy chief of staff, said.
