Enemy Freedom of Movement Denied by Exploding Entire Truck
Published 3 years ago
A drone smashes an Islamic State technical outside of Manbij, Syria in 2016 in order to deny the enemy freedom of movement. They deny the movement by deleting the entire truck and killing everyone near it.
If you don't know, there's a sentence you use whenever you need an excuse to destroy someone you know is a bad guy. That sentence is simple, concise, and straight to the point. "Deny the enemy freedom of movement." It's a special sentence in the military vernacular that when translated means, "We have extra munitions. We have extra time on station. We know these guys are bad guys. We're not going to let them continue being bad guys anymore."
In this instance, you can clearly see that the mission was to deny the enemy freedom of movement. That's why they took the time out of their day to drop a large warhead directly on top of the truck, removing not only the truck from existence, but also any people in the general vicinity as well. In my book, this is an absolute win.
