Excellent investigation to find the truth and another outstanding article by Nat Helms. So who are all these division level folks who knew this was a major engagement? Why did everybody try to act like the Haditha "incident" was an isolated event in these 4 houses? Why the silence from division level?

An officer who was there said so many people were watching the fight go down that a faraway Public Affairs Officer wrote 3/1 to suggest it was time to “maximize the coalition coverage of this, pointing out to the locals that insurgents don't care about their children."

Ummmmmmm.....has he been called to the witness stand in any of these hearings?

Could it be why Col. R. Gary Sokoloski, Gen Huck's aide, refused to testify in the Haditha hearings? He's certainly afraid to own up to something (while letting Marines down the chain be hung out to dry).
