AND, he was off duty, and on his way to have a cold beer with a buddy.

The person who wrote Cleland blew himself up with his own grenade is a moron. How can you be so naive as to make such a claim when military records show it was someone else's grenade. Someone who came forward decades later. Military training is what prompted him to pick up the grenade - you never leave one on the battle field.

find some factual evidence to back up your preposterous claims.
