Report: Marines killed in ambush denied support Marine Corps Times, Sept. 10, 2009 Four Marines were killed Tuesday during an hours-long shootout in eastern Afghanistan , according to reports. In a frantic first-person account of the battle, a U.S. journalist who watched it unfold said the Marines, part of an embedded training team working alongside U.S. and Afghan soldiers in the Sarkani District of Kunar province, requested artillery support to beat back the enemy ambush but were repeatedly denied by commanders who feared it would cause civilian casualties. Air support, which included U.S. helicopters, took more than an hour to arrive on the scene, according to the report published by the McClatchy News Service. http://www.mcclatchydc.com/world/story/75036.html
