Good. These were all absurd cases of good men railroaded for killing the enemy. They never should have been charged in the first place.

@detrajackson5992 Oh please. A woman soldier and her POG husband? You don't understand any more than any civilian does. I was a Marine rifleman, I fought in Iraq, and I understand that the ROE aren't always realistic, and sometimes it is absolutely necessary to the mission and to the lives of our own men to...shall we say "cut a few corners" where absurd ROE are concerned. If you aren't a combat vet, if you don't have a CAR or CIB, you don't know what you're talking about.

These three men were all good men who killed the enemy and were brought up on politically motivated charges for doing their jobs. It's an absolute disgrace they were ever charged in the first place, but that's what happens when a bunch of chumps in Washington who have never been on the same continent as an armed enemy set inflexible rules of engagement that don't always fit neatly with the reality on the ground.

@c3aloha Krulak is a man whose opinion I respect, but the fact of the matter is that he wasn't on the ground in Iraq or Afghanistan.
