I don't know the guy and just because I wish to see both sides of the story regarding this issue doesn't mean I have any animosity towards him. As Will Rogers said, "all I know is what I read in the newspapers" and it is important to hear both sides of the story before passing judgment.
And as my son posted up above, he stated Pantano was a pretty congenial guy but he had some issues.
Seems that you ducked the question, but I will rephase my question to give the benefit of the doubt. Do you know someone in the Marines who was present when the incident with Pantano occurred?
