Thanks to you both.

It seems that Perry’s piece is somewhat different than the other two.

Don’t know what to think about the company commander warning snipers that “the Marine Corps eats its young.” Doesn’t seem like a very good way of installing morale in your men, depending on the circumstances and the way it was said.

Glad this is getting the coverage that it is. So far I would say the public should be supporting Sgt. Winnick and his Marines.

It seems after officers determined no IED had been planted, Winnick was relieved of duty, but his platoon commander refused to give him a negative evaluation even though he was ordered to.

Seems the platoon commander. Lt. Dominic Corabi, was trying to be realistic with his Marines telling them to be careful, but when push came to shove, he stood up for them.
