I served in the military. We were trained to only give our serial numbers. This is a new military now. Someone gave orders. Is it a coincidence that the Iranian deal was happening the next day? Iran used this tape for propaganda
to show the U.S. military is weak.
3 and a half years after Benghazi and we still do not know WHO gave the order to stand down! Doubtful we will ever know who gave the order to stand down yesterday...But someone, in both cases, obviously did.
“I served in the military. We were trained to only give our serial numbers.”
On the other hand, the military and the nation broke the deal implicit in the code of conduct by abandoning hundreds of men in Laos at the end of the Vietnam war. Getting you mug on TV is just good sense these days.
