AFO does not appear to be used earlier in the article, nor are there any titles starting with those letters. Abbreviation needs to be defined before its use in the document, or else a link should be provided to where an explanation can be found. Ileanadu ( talk) 21:56, 11 May 2010 (UTC)
This section starts out:
Who is Blaber? What service branch? What is his role in the mission? Is he in charge of the helicopters? of AFO? Ileanadu ( talk) 02:06, 12 May 2010 (UTC)
This article does not follow the appropriate format for battles. The belligerents are not listed, nor are casualties, nor are force strengths, or commanders.
Also "killing multiple al-Qaeda"? How many? How? Where? Citation?-- 24.200.88.13 ( talk) 13:13, 11 February 2011 (UTC)
Problem here? Could someone resolve? Notreallydavid ( talk) 01:21, 24 March 2011 (UTC)
I've read this article and seen a documentary on the National Geographic Channel about this battle and one question emerged: why didn't the americans use the A10 Warthog aircraft or the Apache helicopter to support the ground troops? Both could withstand hits of the insurgents most efective anti-aircraft weapon, which was a russian made 50 cal machine gun.

Might want to explain "GRIM-32". It just pops up at one point w/o any explanation. And since "Situation Critical" is mentioned - there are quite some differences between the description there and here ... JB. -- 92.193.204.81 ( talk) 05:27, 24 December 2018 (UTC)
Grim-31 was the callsign of a C130J that was on station for Mako31. There was another C130J callsign Nail that was also onstation. I don't remember the order of which arrived first and which relieved the other. - sorry I don't know how to sign this to say who wrote it, but the material is also referenced in the book ALone at Dawn which talks about John Chapman.
This video, uploaded in 2019, shows the actions of John Chapman as seen from CIA predator drone.

Just wanted to post this up as it was brought up on the talk page for Britt Slabinski, the DEVGRU guy who also was awarded the MoH during the battle of takur ghar. Some pretty serious charges of slabinski leaving chapman behind even though the latter wasn't dead. And mention of coordinated efforts by the Navy to block or deny this while pushing for slabinski to get the MoH. As we all know, both were awarded it. But I think the two issues of purportedly abandoning Chapman and the alleged Navy interference over the award are significant enough to warrant some discussion. And they're from reliable sources as they're mentioned in multiple sources (sean naylor articles in newsweek and NYTimes, task and purpose, washington post, and elsewhere). Kinda busy with other articles but may try to swing back around later to work on it (if agreed upon). Thoughts? Jasonkwe ( talk) ( contribs) 02:27, 23 July 2022 (UTC)
The book, "Alone at Dawn" is an excellent source material for this topic and even though i briefly scanned through "talk" and the actual wikipedia entry, i believe it would clarify and add alot of material for operation anaconda. If no one else more knowledgeable is available to do so, I can try to although i don't feel fully qualified to do so. 2600:6C67:4F3F:1B00:3970:3278:70D8:EBAC ( talk) 07:16, 28 October 2023 (UTC)
