Not quite. Wes (who was with the very first troops into Baghdad and later, Tikrit) told me that in Baghdad they were greeted with cheers from small groups... at first. However, he said that one of the difficult things was that as soon it was dark, they were sure that some of those cheering people became their enemies.
