Anything to the report of US contractors being trapped at Balad airbase?
Twitter has a few Tweeets from today, which suggests that 200 US civilian contractors for the Iraqi state are @ Balad AFB (due to be the home of F16s). The source is this:http://www.special-ops.org/200-u-s-c...ihadists-iraq/

It appears that a few hundred staff were flown out earlier, leavinga smaller group behind. See:http://myemail.constantcontact.com/-...id=AXrVSkmPbCw
