US: Iraq Set To Use Chemical Weapons March 24, 2003 cbsnews.com U.S officials tell CBS News Correspondent David Martin that the Iraqis have drawn a red line on the map around Baghdad, and once American troops cross it, the Republican Guards are authorized to use chemical weapons. Word of the chemical threat came as, for the first time, U.S.-led forces clashed with Iraq’s elite fighters about 50 miles south of Baghdad. U.S. Apache helicopters fired on the guard to soften them up for ground forces heading north to Baghdad. One Apache went down; its two-main crew was later seen on Iraqi television, where they did not speak to the camera and appeared confused. The U.S. Dept. Of Defense identified them as Ronald D. Young Jr., 26, and David S. Williams, 30, both based at Fort Hood, Texas. They join five other POWs captured two days ago. Along with the ongoing clash south of Baghdad, coalition forces are also fighting in northern Iraq and in the southern Iraq town of an-Nasariyah on the Euphrates river.
