I'm wondering if that incident reported by Ted Koppel the other day was more serious than reported at the time. Koppel was critized here for reporting that a large assault force (Marines?) was sitting around waiting to be refueled. Supposedly in the "red zone" fuel wise. One bridge too far?

All Marine officers i've ever met were outstanding leaders. However, each service has its own way of doing things. In the case of the Army, I can't see a brigade commander being relieved for something a reporter said on the air. He might be warned how to handle reporters, but i can't see relieving him.
