    They were in bagram when i was there 3 years ago. Right next to our F-16's. Them army guys like the A-10's better for CAS. Much better turn radius and a 30mm cannon as opposed to our 20mm. Takes us a wee bit more to turn around for a second pass.

    I've always said any army/marine member disparaging the AF, has never had to call for CAS.
