of the ko -- inadvertent burning of the koran by soldiers. there is a lot of anger from president karzai. we heard that today. president karzai once borne troops out of afghan villages and back into the bases. the foreign troops want to return to their bases and homes. the timetable will be tricky. by the end of 2013, american troops and british troops will have drawn back to their bases. most combat troops will not go to go home until 2014. they will draw back and afghans will be doing most of the fighting. >> you talk about the troops going back to their bases instead of being in the villages. is it going to be difficult for the u.s. to control the process because of recent events? >> that is the million-dollar question. nobody wants to panic running for the exit. it would not be good for the foreign soldiers or afghan people. it would probably provide an advantage to the taliban. president obama called president karzai to congratulate him on the birth of his second child, a aughter.- dr both reproved the list of the agreement -- the lisbon

and burn as much as you can. we certainly weren't going to be able to burn all of it, some way disable four artillery troops, one of five howitzers. if we didn't, everyone else was going to pay for it. basically things happen, you respond to them, things happen, you respond to them. now, 3:30, 4:00 in the afternoon, i don't know when, there was a lull. and that's not a good sign when you have been under fire all day. there was one helicopter report, with the lull, they were resupplying, getting ready for a final attack, waiting for the final groups to come up, and that was when we decided time to go. hopefully our side had had enough time to regain their composure and find an extraction point. the lieutenant, he got the patrol to take them out. what i needed to do was block them, blocking fire, and the only target i could call in that fast was my own location. logical solution. again, not a whole lot of thought went into it. made the call, kept asking when is it going to get here. finally they said get ready to l
