Close air support is a bitch. A friend of mine from high school is a jet fighter mechanic currently in Iraq and consequently has a close relationship with the pilots. They tell him time and again that they have a love/hate relationship with close air support calls because the margin of error when dropping bombs or doing strafing runs when friendlies are danger close is basically zero, but they do get the satisfaction that they are seriously saving someone's ass out there. Expecting a perfect record is a pipe dream.
