If you read this guy’s bio, he makes its it hard to believe he’s not an astroturf p.o.s.
By astroturf p.o.s. I mean someone who joined the service in order to build credibility for his attacks against the military later in his civilian career.
If this (below) is his blog (it certainly appears to be), it is quite clear that he enlisted in this war that he despises in order to “write a book” — here we have a liberal college twit who was a Dean campaign activist and editor-in-chief of his campus leftist magazine, who despises the war and everything and everyone associated with it, yet he enlists in a time of the volunteer military with the explicit goal of “chasing down the muse” by seeking authorial fame and glory. I’ve seen no indications that they guy can actually write worth a damn, but it’s become clear from various blog posts in his e-trail that he came at the army with a left-wing agenda to trash the military and secure his writing career among moonbats.

“ghosts scared too”
http://ghostsonfilm.blogspot.com/2006/05/ghosts-scared-too.html
“....I know that NOT participating in a war (and such a misguided one at that) should be considered better than wanting to be in one just to write a book...but you know, maybe id rather be a good man than a good artist...be both? Some can and some cant...i guess it all depends on how great an artist, or how great a man they want to be. Sometimes it feels like i have to choose between being totally loyal to thoughts of my future family OR totally loayl to chasing down the muse.”
