South sudan: U.S. Military to respond with overwhelming concern
JUBA, SOUTH SUDAN — The Pentagon has declared that the U.S. will respond with immediate overwhelming concern after four U.S. soldiers were wounded during a rescue mission in South Sudan.
A representative from Africa Command (AFRICOM) has already issued a formal apology to South Sudan and offered to pay medical compensation for any soldiers who received blisters on their trigger fingers.
He then added that the United States was deeply sorry for flying its planes into their gunfire.
The soldiers were wounded after their CV-22 Ospreys came under fire by bushmen with AK-47 rifles and some well-thrown spears while trying to evacuate Americans from the town of Bor.
