Some interesting (and disturbing) video footage of an Edinburgh Risk and Security Management (ERSM) PSD/Security Operator team getting ambushed by Iraqi insurgents/terrorists in Baghdad, Iraq, while conducting Operation APOLLO. The contact occurred on the morning of April 20, 2005 (4/20/2005) on the infamous BIAP Road. This was a small arms contact. The enemy was armed with at least one Russian-type 7.62mmx54R PKM belt-fed GPMG (General Purpose Machine Gun) firing AP (armor-piercing) ammo that was able to penetrate the team's vehicles, including a B6-level armored car/vehicle (Mercedes). The ERSM operators suffered casualties and deaths.
James Yeager (American) was one of those ERSM PSD operators, that day. Fortunately, he survived the attack. Mr. Yeager is an active LEO (law enforcement officer) and well-known tactical instructor (including tactical shooting instructor). He is currently a lead instructor at Tactical Response, Inc. (TR), which he also owns and operates.
The acronym "PSD" stands for "Personal Security Detail" or "Personal Security Detachment".
Der gute James Yeager (Tactical Response (http://www.tacticalresponse.com/instructors/jamesyeager.php) ist der, der bei 0:30 vom rechten Fahrzeug zum linken Fahrzeug läuft um sich selbst in Sicherheit zu bringen und seine Kollegen im Stich läßt.
Von wütenden Kollegen aufgesetzte Seite: James Yeager is Scum! (http://yeagerisscum.tripod.com/)
Judge yourself.
