PAPER: TROOP RESENTMENT GROWING IN IRAQ

**Exclusive Newsroom Development**

There is growing resentment and declining morale in the Army's 3rd Infantry Division in Iraq, the NEW YORK TIMES is planning to report in Page One splashes on Monday.

Newsroom sources tell DRUDGE how the paper is hoping to get back on the news track after its recent troubles with a controversial, high-impact report to be filed by Michael Gordon.

The Army's 3rd Infantry's tanks are the ones that drove into Baghdad and stayed.

But the division has been kept in Iraq so long that the troops are feeling abused, the TIMES will alleged.

Plus, all the tanks and vehicles have been run into the ground and there have been no repair parts.

"When they rumbled into the center of Baghdad two months ago, the soldiers from the Spartan Brigade thought their war was all but over. But instead of going home the troops have been given a new and complex mission: bringing order to Falluja, a town that has been the scene of deadly clashes," Gordon will report, sources say.

"Most of the soldiers from the Spartan Brigade believe that they have done more than their share by fighting their way into the Iraqi capital. And they thought they would be heading home after their division handed over responsibility for Baghdad security last week to the 1st Armored Division."

Unleashed late Sunday...
