March 11 (Bloomberg) -- President George W. Bush, seeking to reassure Americans about conditions in Iraq, said U.S. troops are focusing new attention on thwarting insurgents' use of car and roadside bombs.
``We are constantly adjusting our tactics on the ground to achieve a victory,'' Bush said after getting a White House briefing on roadside bombs from retired General Montgomery Meigs and Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld. ``We face an enemy that will use explosive devices in order to shake our will, in order to foment violence in Iraq, in order to try to convince the American people that we can't win in Iraq. That is what they are trying to do.''
I think this means that all of the vehicle and body armor was finally delivered and installed 2 years after it was requested.
