sadly there are many more stories like that.
in one case, they refused to fire SMOKE rounds in support!
Obama’s R.O.E. has caused the death of many of our brave troops i believe. they are beyond ridiculous.
and McChrystal and our new CIA director Petraeus signed off on them.
(while Colonel West gave up his career to protect his men!)
I just read about Colonel West today. He’s definitely hard-core. That’s why for the remainder of his command, there weren’t any ambushes on his soldiers where they were patrolling.
