OK, WI URGENT FURY had gone better in Oct 1983 ? Things which should've been improved SO much:
-better intel on the location of the 500 US medical students (which leads also to another WI- say, instead of OTL these students being in no actual danger, the Grenadian army had attempted to actually take as many American students hostage as poss)
-better inter-service co-operation so's that damaged Blackhawks were allowed to land on the decks of Navy ships
-better comms so's that the farcical sitns of the pinned-down 82nd Airborne troopers or US Navy SEALS needing to use a payphone to call in airstrikes
are avoided
-standard issuance of proper maps of the island of Grenada to officers & soldiers at all levels
-the involvement of the 7th SFG in the campaign, given their enculturation & familiarity with the Caribbean as part of their AOR
