Interesting,jaz. I remember when this ambush/battle was reported....it was an example of how the ROE’s had changed in Afghanistan. It’s only gotten worse over time.
Interesting that Patraeus name was mentioned....that’s where my mind went first.
Agreed, Girl...I immediately thought of Petraeus also as well as Gen. McChrystal. McChrystal was commander at time of battle but I believe Petraeus would have been commander at time of nomination.
