Conclusion of 3part investigation into Pat Tillman death - Read it

Say what you want about Tillman being a soldier and took his chances and, what about the local people's situation. I'm not posting this in dispute of any of that. It strikes me as "C. Sheehan" like situation that should be told to confront this administration on all fronts. Worth the read.
Splat.


More than two years after Pat Tillman was killed by friendly fire in Afghanistan, his family and friends are working to create a positive legacy even as they remain angered and frustrated with lingering unanswered questions about his death.

The initial embellished story of Pat Tillman's death puzzled his youngest brother, Richard, from the beginning. The stories didn't ring true to Richard Tillman. Sitting up front at the memorial service for his brother, he listened to politicians and other luminaries tell the heroic tale, gushing their heartfelt goodbyes. Pat Tillman, so many of them suggested, died valiantly though violently, then had slipped off peacefully to a better place.

To Richard Tillman, it sounded contrived. Too neatly packaged.

It didn't sound right. Not like Pat.

A super man did in deed die. I was lucky enough to see him play all his home games as a Sun Devil. He as a warrior cut down to too soon.

Republican congressman Curt Weldon (PA-7th) denounced the army for burning Tillman's clothes, obviously in order to cover something up, you can read that speech here:
