A friend heard on the news that benefits to Master Sgt. Wheeler's family are in question because of how the US's military activities in Iraq have been defined by the administration. I couldn't find an article about it, yet, but will keep looking.

God be with him, and with his family. May he rest in peace.

If the enemy islamist CIC can find any way to screw over an American soldier, he’ll do it.

He was a courageous man, no doubt. And should be honored and his family taken care of.

And I hate to go down this road, but just when Russia is clobbering ISIS, we free hostages in an assault with the kurds for possibly the first time since i can remember?

and 60 minutes is showing our pinpoint attacks on ISIS this weekend?

did obama risk lives for propaganda?

either way, people got freed, and we lost a great american.

i hate my president.

it probably distracted from clintoon’s hearing too.

No disrespect to this hero but who did they rescue. I don’t trust anything coming out of the administration. The story is already changing. First it was Kurdish fighters. Then no Kurdish fighters but Iraqis. Tonight I hear something about some ISIS captives were taken.

I am not happy as to the loss of an American life for muslims, but, given that Kurds were freed as well, softens my thoughts a bit.

On Fox News about half hour ago, the news guy said that the family WOULD get full combat benefits.

Yeah, and the liberal MSM says he brought it on himself for running to a gunfight. They’ll Chris Kyle him for sure.

a prison

Wonder whether the guards are still being issued rubber bullets, as they were during the GWBush years?

I don’t want to spend a dime or a drop of American blood to rescue a muslim, but I admit, I don’t know the makeup of the prisoners.
