Looks like The New Republic’s representative lackey has alot of explaining to do. My original e-mail is at the bottom. Enjoy!
SFC McElroy,
I’m not in the habit of answering these email’s. It would be far too many. I appreciate all the support from home and I can assure you that not a single word of this was true. We’ve been fighting this fight for quite some time. Numerous soldiers within my unit have served on several deployments and this is my third year as a First Sergeant in this unit. My soldiers conduct is consistently honorable. This soldier has other underlining issues which I’m sure will come out in the course of the investigation. No one at any of the post we live at or frequent, remotely fit the descriptions of any of the persons depicted in this young man’s fairy tale. I can’t and won’t divulge any information regarding this soldier, but I do sincerely appreciate all the support from the people back home. Again, this young man has a vivid imagination and I promise you that this by no means reflects the truth of what is happening here. I’m currently serving with the best America has to offer. I have worked and fought closely with every soldier within my company and they are consummate professionals in an area most people can’t fathom. I’m proud of my soldiers and would gladly give my life for any one of them. Please continue to keep them with you in your prayers and thank God that we have these courageous men willing to make the ultimate sacrifice for their country, Americans, and the people of this struggling nation.
Sincerely,
1SG Hatley

Michelle Malkin is sitting in for Bill O’Reilly, and talking about Beauchamp right now...someone who was embedded with his unit is talking about him...
There was a time when someone like this would get a good ass kicking for lying about his fellow soldiers, again and again.
Whats this person saying?
Hoping there’ll be a transcript, but essentially, that he’d offered to check out Beauchamp’s stories for NR, but that NR pretty much said no. So...NR wasn’t interested in the truth of the matter, just the wild stories.
What did Tokyo Rose get?
This guy better be nuts because if he’s not he’s in a lot of trouble.

She got a $10,00 fine and sentenced for10 years of which she served six. She was pardoned by President Ford and moved to Chicago to work in her father’s company. She died in 1996.
There was minimal testimony that what she did was of her own volition.
Beauchamp knows exactly what he’s doing and he is being aided by a national magazine.
Another budding Hanoi John most likely.
Any Freepers living in Kansas, how many years do you think your State would be willing to host Pvt. Beauchamp in your large and comfortable accommodation?
The Fort, that is.
Pure queer bait, no doubt.
You’re correct; There’s a reason Sullivan jumped so high to slam those who questioned this story. Anyone who read Scott’s blog knows.
I want to know who his ‘mentors’ are at Columbia Journalism. They also jumped up in the sky and slammed the investigation of his story... before we found out about the Columbia connection.
