Our Special Forces need to be in Mexico - not Niger.

Hmmm, guess they couldn’t find an enlisted person to throw in Leavenworth.

". . .underequipped and poorly supported American soldiers . . ."

Right there you know it wasn't the grunts who pay the piper at fault.

More than a year after the ambush — the American military’s largest loss of life in Africa since the 1993 “Black Hawk Down” debacle in Somalia

WTF, more than in engagements in Iraq or Afghanistan? This is the NYT today.

The Green Berets were wearing Body Cameras which were taken by the ambushers after their deaths, and uploaded to the internet. I watched the video. One by one, in about 5 minutes time the Americans were dead.

I thought, watching it, how easy it is to die. They seemed unprepared for the situation, and paid for it with their lives.
