My drinkin’ buddy, Thus Spake Ortner takes on yet another IVAW fable-ist at The Sniper<\/a>. A sample;<\/p>\n

We relieved the Second Battalion, Fourth Marines, and they wanted us to do the same death mission that one of its squads–which is eight Marines, plus a Navy corpsman, for a total of nine–did.<\/font><\/p>\n

The squad was completely wiped out. They got ambushed in a bad part of Ramadi, and all of them were killed–their bodies were stripped and left on the street. They wanted us to do the same thing–to go on the same route, but have backup at some distance. They wanted us to draw the fire, call in the backup and then wipe them out.<\/font><\/p>\n

Death Mission? There are several things to this story that are interesting\/inaccurate. First off, the so-called \u201cDeath Mission\u201d happened on April 6, 2004, over 6 months before Diaz\u2019s unit even arrived in country. So it wasn\u2019t like they were sending him the next day. When a unit is said to \u201cLand on Omaha Beach\u201d, it would make a big difference if they did so on June 6, or November 6.<\/font><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Speaking of IVAW, TSO also sent me this video last week promising to write about it (and he never did – but it’s good for entertainment value). It should have been entitled The Army of Duh;

For those of you who don’t know, Robin of Chickenhawk Express<\/a> (my alter ego according to the IVAW) is back blogging more regularly.<\/p>\n
