MORE Newsroom sources tell DRUDGE how the paper is hoping to get back on the news track after its recent troubles with a controversial, high-impact report to be filed by Michael Gordon. The Army's 3rd Infantry's tanks are the ones that drove into Baghdad -- and stayed. But the division has been kept in Iraq so long that the troops are feeling abused, the TIMES will alleged. Plus, all the tanks and vehicles have been run into the ground and there have been no repair parts. MORE Many soldiers believed that the way home was through Baghdad, and they fought their way to the capital only to find out just a few days ago that the Army had another mission for them. "The soldiers are irritated and tired," said Capt. Christopher Carter, the commander of Company A, 3-7 Infantry. "Of course, they are going to go in and do the job, and they will do it professionally as if they had been told all along that they were going to have to do it," he said. "But they almost feel betrayed. You put a nice prize in front of them and now you yank it away from them."
