BAGHDAD -- The Iraqi 3rd Public Order Brigade discovered an improvised rocket launcher in east Baghdad Dec. 21. 'Although not particularly effective against coalition forces, rocket launchers have been known to cause great damage to civilian vehicles,' said Maj. Paul Reese, operations officer, 2nd Brigade Combat Team. 'This discovery shows the professionalism of the Iraqi Security Forces, and probably saved some innocent civilian's life today.' A search is ongoing to capture the owners of the improvised rocket launcher.
