nice link... any details on the rescue and composition of Forces nvolved, Cross... it's all vague over here. Mention of the unit is very hush hush by our government, especially since we're supposedly not militarily active in Iraq. Maybe you have better info over there, seeing as SAS was involved and maybe the large part of the Op.

All we have been told is that SAS and other allied forces went in to rescue Norman Kember and 2 Canadians...No gun fire was exchaged, as the terrorists had fled.They had been planing the op for 2 weeks.

Thats all we have been told ,if I find more I`ll let you all know.Special forces soldiers, reported to have been led by the SAS, discovered Mr Kember, 74, tied up, but apparently abandoned, with two other hostages at a Baghdad house in a raid on Thursday.

The three peace activists were released without a shot being fired or a sign of their kidnappers after a 118-day ordeal that gripped the world.
