I served in the Army for 21 years. What I do not understand is if you are fighting in a clearly mountainous region, Why do you send our brave men to establish a fort at the bottom of 4 mountaintops ? Do these so called mission planners have shit for brains? Apparently so because after being found guilty of negligence in planning the battle ( S-4 especially) They turned around and blamed the men who died , Both there leader and the men ! Sounds a lot like Vietnam to me !
-
US Army uses these awards ceremonies as propaganda and recruitment tools and hide the real problems. Let me ask you this - if the Army thinks these brave soldiers died serving their country, why are they blaming their dead commander 1LT Jonathan Brostrom for negligence? Fact is, they died cuz the Army failed to give them the resources needed to complete their mission. Look up the facts, and not just remember the heroes. What good are dead heroes when nothing was accomplished?
-
it's a tragedy that the army never assigned any blame for this predicted attack. I'd recommend reading the army's extensive lessons learned report and/or the WaPo's excellent interactive feature which includes video shot by Lt. Brostrum detailing just how vulnerable these guys were.
-
All the best to all who serve and have served in Iraq and Afghanistan and in particular to those who fought at Wanat. Your sacrifices will not be forgotten.
-
zedsdead: Thank you and everyone doing their part back home to help all the hero's that very much deserve what you and others like you do them and myself!
Thank you!!!

I very rarely boot someone for comments. Goh Modley just added himself to a short list. I know nothing about him other than his claim to have been wounded in the war on terror. He has shown a disrespectful, BS attitude toward those who have served honorably and he is booted. Dissent is one thing, shitting on honorable people is another.
Cordially,
Uncle J
