A Colonel of Truth: "As Army battle tanks from the 3rd Infantry Division were making the first main thrust into Baghdad last weekend, U.S. soldiers captured a senior Republican Guard commander who blundered into their advancing column. The Iraqi colonel's complete surprise at encountering the armored force gave U.S. commanders an important clue about the state of Saddam Hussein's Baghdad defenses: They were fatally disorganized. Even senior Iraqi commanders, who should have had up-to-the-minute intelligence on U.S. forces, were unaware that the Americans had reached the city and were now entering in force." usatoday.com
