Tillman Comrade Recalls Final Moments

I used to do a lot of precision reloading.
But when I read the accounts of the tightly spaced bullet wounds to Tillman, I have to wonder how far up the chain this cover up goes. And why?

This is as SICKENING as it gets. Praise jesus the pat robertson way or catch some lead to the head. Seems that headshots are a favored method for this administration, just ask cheneys hunting buddy....

And why are they letting Tillman keep his Silver Star. It is now apparent he died through his own stupidity. They should pull his decoration and replace it with a dunce cap. Rule 1: Keep your damned head down when they are shooting at you, dumbass.

It is now apparent that you live through your stupidity, here's your helmet, get back on the short bus and keep all hands and feet in the vehicle at all times. You would think that all this rain lately would have washed all you cat-turds away, since you tend to keep your trailer parks on low ground...

So you whine that the government covered up the circumstances of his death, but now think he should still be treated as a hero when he clearly was not? You're an idiot.

If justice is served in his death, and it brings down this corrupt regime, he should be awarded the CMOH posthumously. You prisoner, in the meantime are up for the don't-ask-don't-tell stopper on a chain medal.

Gays do not belong in the military or in civilized society. You just hate Bush because he beat your Gay lovers Gore and Kerry. Get over it and start preparing for Hillary to lose in 08.

LOL! We need hillary like the Hindenburg needed static electricity. I'm rooting for Ron Paul, because he will do a FAR better job of gutting you nationalist worms.

What the hell is a Ron Paul? One of those 3rd tier annoying windbag freaks? Get real. It's gonna be Hillary against Newt and Nader. Nader is going to split the Demoncrat vote and Newt will win in a landslide. Now don't act surprised when it happens because I already told you.

It sounds like Tillman's fellow soldiers didn't think too much of him. Maybe it was because apparently, he was really full of himself. When a chaplain badmouths you, that is bad.

So I wasn't the only one who thought he came off as a bit of a prick? I apprecate his sacrifice, but call em as I see em. And this guy was no hero and does not deserve the Silver Star. The Army really screwed the pooch making this guy out to be more than he was.

This sounds to me to be similar to what the British used to do when a Military Blunder occurred - Declare a Victory and hand out metals.

No doubt the Military tried to cover-up this really unfortunate event but they probably wanted to avoid the 'black eye' the Liberal Media would bestow upon them and decided to cover it up and portray Sgt. Tillman as the HERO he was.
Friendly Fire Incidents occur more than you'd ever know by Both Sides in the Conflict. This unfortunately, falls under the category of Collateral Damage.
That's like calling Sodomy Following too Close.
That's also like calling Illegal Aliens, Undocumented Aliens.
Or Liberals, Patriots.

There have been many many soldiers who have died as a result of friendly fire, and it really is a shame. Tillman should not have moved so far away from his group. While spacing is good, i.e., being to close together can result in many being hurt, but being too far apart can result in this kind of incident.

People that have not experienced being under fire (in combat) should becareful not to judge too harshly. It can be quite terrifying, and quite confusing at times.

I'm sorry Tillman died that way, but you're right he's no hero.

As for Ron Paul, I think he's been running for office since WWW II.

By Hero I mean All of Our Troops that are Fighting For Our Freedom and Country.
God Bless America and Save Us from Tyrants !

... nobody seems to get it. Ya think maybe there were some high ranking REMFs making $$ from the poppy trade in the Stan? Tillman was too straight and obviously not money oriented .. wouldn't be corrupted ... making him a target. He knew or saw something that was a threat to higher ups ... they had to eliminate him. This crap went on in Nam too.

Apparently, he should have kept his head down like this O Neal fellow.

For all of you who are knocking Tillman leave the guy alone he is dead have some feelings for his family.I hope you people are not taking up space in church.God loves him and thats what counts.There is nothing better than being nice.Try it you may like it.

Can't they leave this guy rest in peace?

The stupid press has to keep digging him up...

He isn't the only mistake killed by friendly fire...

End it......
