Did I read that right? There are thousands of patriotic, honest, American boys serving in dangerous parts of Baghdad. They should be honored that Beauchamp is "paying his price" by joining them?
All due respect Mr. Yon, dead wrong here, he has not paid his price yet. When I hear that he has repeatedly volunteered for the most dangerous missions, saved a few of his comrades, and donated his first medal to his old unit, then maybe he would have begun to pay his price.
For God's sakes Mr. Yon, his fabrications were translated in Arabic and published on untold numbers of blogs in the Middle East, many people over there do not - and will never - know that he was unmasked as a fraud. The damage he wrought the country and the war efforts is immeasurable, and you think he is acquitting himself well of all of this by joining his fellow soldiers in doing his duty?
Are we living in alternate universes?
LTC Glaze wants to keep Beauchamp, and hopes folks will let it rest.
