The Marines should send embedded reporters to lead their patrols or act as point. If someone has to take a bullet - better they are a MSM stooge who hates American anyway.
The "Imbeds" should be the stick-men. You know, carry a stick and poke the presumed dead Muzzy's in the eye. If the Muzzy yells "ouch", or blows up, he's not dead and neither is a marine. The stick-man has satisfied his "Right to Know".
