>>ASSOCIATED PRESS -- A U.S. base in eastern Afghanistan came under attack from several rockets, reports the Associated Press. Five rockets were launched at the Lwara base, one of them hitting a bunker. There were no injuries. Two A-10 Thunderbolts destroyed a vehicle leaving the scene. Three occupants of the car escaped the Thunderbolt attack and fled to a nearby compound.<< How in Allahs name do three people get out of a car strafed by an A10!!!!!!!! Had the pilot been watching too much "kellys heros" and loaded Paint shells instead of API???
