-Well the source is an old one. I first read this letter back in 2001. It was written by some guy called Saucy Jim/Jack/or John, I can't remember exactly anymore. It was written shortly after the invasion and was reportedly from one of those special teams trying to track down Osama.
-The letter became quite an internet sensation for a couple of weeks, as one of teh first insights of a ground pounder.
-However, if I remember correctly, it was also one of the instances that lead to the belief that Snopes had a leftist agenda, because they came out against the letter as a phoney because they couldn't prove that it was true (..need a little Logic 101 here????). In any case there were arguments over contested details.
-as an old soldier, it rang true to me.
