The NCIS didn't do this investigation. The CID did.

And I've just spoken with the family, who says the attorney has confirmed the details of this.

It IS really this bad.

Seems to me that these cases reveal a common problems with the way we're policing the military. The various investigative agencies seem to be stuck in a pre-WOT mindset, unable to grasp the chaotic nature of the fighting in Iraq in particular.

You've been looking at this longer, and more deeply, than I have, euphoria. What do you think is going on?

Brigade Commanders don't just issue orders like this directly down to the squad level. I'm not attempting to vindicate Steele. He may very well be the scumbag he's being made out to be but there's a whole lot of other subordinate leaders and staff who have some 'splainin' to do as well.
