                             The Bi-@gacies at      taczi@, to seize Objectives Utah and Ohio
                        lasted approximately 1 1/2 hours. The Task Forces met
                        moderate resistance during its initial advance north. As
                        the units closed on Objectives Utah and Ohio, they came
                        under increasing small arms fire. Utilizing the same
                        -Le@tit-iique as TF 3-41 used the previous days (extensive
                        recon by fire), the brigade quickly secured both
                        ObjF--ctivea. Large numbers of Iraqi soldiers surrendered
                        and aever-z.1 7--@5's ar-,Li T-62'          were destroyed by MIAlTs and

                        surrender. The Ir-aq4's abandon;d large quantities of
 military equipment (estimate: I Brigades worth).
