Wow, here is a story I completely missed, from the AP. I came across the story this afternoon while reading Blackfive’s blog. It had been a year or so since I had last visited the blog and had really forgotten how much I enjoy the site. A great site that supports our military! Anyway, enough of my praise, head on over to Blackfive for the rest of Uncle Jimbo’s post: Pat Tillman shot in the head:
Since the Army did an investigation and I assume knows the answers to these questions, they were satisfied that this was an accident. Absent that understanding, I’m having a tough time reaching that same conclusion. I do not believe that this means his death was not an accident, but it raises serious questions about where the shooter was in relation to Tillman.
In reading the AP story, the first thing I realized was how quickly I had forgotten the details surrounding Pat’s death. With the spin the military had already put on his death, this new information really casts a very dark cloud on the entire investigation. The truth will hopefully come out, if what we have been told up till now turns out to be false, so that we can get past the controversy of Pat’s death and remember him as the hero that he is and was; one who sacrificed himself for the greater good of our nation.
