"CNN reports that the 1st Brigade, 2nd Battallion of the 101st
Airborne, nicknamed No Slack, found abandoned Iraqi weapons
and weak resistance during a probe near Al Najaf...."

Let me get this straight... an entire batallion nicknames itself "No
Slack" - what is our response, oh Brothers?

More slack?
Holy War?
A polite letter writing campaign?
A phamplet for every trooper?

Remember, as Dobbs said, there is no thing as no P.R. ...

"NO SLACK" is the battalion. 101st Airborne is the brigade.

First we need to find out specifically what they mean by 'during a
probe'.

I suppose when Geraldo is embedded in your division it just sucks out all
the slack.

Perhaps the Battallion Commander is a Sub already. After all, if we
have slack, doesn't it follow that we should deny it to our enemies?

A later CNN report said it was the SECOND Battallion so we need to get
it right.

CNN's Ryan Cillicote reporting on Battalion 'No Slack'
During a sweep through Najaf he said
"No Slack took no casualties and recieved no return fire."

Is "Bob" providing an advisory role?

Maybe you all are misinterpreting:

Maybe it's "No, Slack!"

Maybe it's "Nose, lack?"

Like, do you need a nose, sir?

If I could be any kind of tree, it would probably be a
turtle.
