"I respectfully ask, how many gooks did you uncuff so they could go back into the hooch and look for boobytraps?"
NONE!
"How many zipperheads did you tie up, then execute?"
NONE!
"And, how many little dink babies' skulls did you buttstroke with your M-16 A1 because you didn't want waste the round?"
NONE!
But I will never, never, never judge a fellow Marine, Sailor, Airman or Soldier unless there is blatant murder involved!
Now I have said all I am going to say on this subject!
Semper Fi,
Kelly
Again, either the MSM, politicians and all Americans are going to allow these American Soldiers, Airmen, Sailors and Marines to WIN THIS WAR or then just bring every swinging dick home! PERIOD!
kelly,
Thank you for your response. Nothing wrong with expressing your opinion. In fact, you probably have more of a right to say something about this topic than most of the people who have read this thread.
If Lt. Pantano ordered his men to uncuff those prisoners with the intent to shoot them in the back because he was tweaked that they had bomb making materials in the house, then that was an execution and would qualify under your definition of blatant murder. (Sgt. Coburn's story)
If he ordered his men to uncuff those prisoners so they could look for boobytraps, then that was stupid, but not murder if they were coming at him. (Lt. Pantano's story)
But, I am not going to fault the Corps for investigating this report of alleged misconduct.
