Initially I thought that the embedded reporters might be a good idea

Well, I thought it was a bad idea but I have changed my mind. We are seeing the reporters true colors. Some foolish, some anti American and some very patriotic. I think Fox chose wisely (most of the time :')). Oliver North doing great. Rick Leventhal(?) impressive too, even though I wondered if he had enlisted. It's "we" this and "we" that and if someone wasn't sitting really close to him yesterday talking, I think it was him calling out to a solider (by name) to "watch out and then yelled don't shoot him, he's surrendering "lol

I really like Rick Levanthal and think he has done an amazing job and that he does identify closely with the troops. I did kind of a double take on the incident that you referred to as well, but I don't recall if that was Levanthal or Kelly.

I guess I can see it from both sides and have mixed feelings about it. I guess what really bothers me is the possiblity of some event being misinterpreted, or worse, reported falsely, putting soldiers in the position of having to defend themselves and in the future not being able to focus as completely as they should on the task at hand for always having to worry about how something will play to the cameras or how it will perceived back home.

I am pretty sure Rick Leventhal is a marine officer, helicopter pilot, and is in the reserves.

Pentagon is saying that NO Americans were killed but that several of our Kurdish allies were killed. Definitely a friendly fire incident according to Major Garrett.

That was G. Kelly, former Marine.

The incident you were talking about was with Gregg Kelly. I think Rick Leventhal is a bit whinny at times. Of course Olie is doing fantastic.
