HADITHA: Even though the ever increasingly repugnant John Murtha continues to act like a circus barker, even though he has shot off long and loud about what happened on a day when the hell of war broke out via a roadside IED in the most violent area of Iraq, we still do not know all the facts. And I for one am not willing to throw the Marines, who are the finest trained defenders we have, overboard - simply because one inane Congressman seeks greater political power.
This morning Hugh and Mary Katharine have put together the best round-up I've seen by way of response to the on-going investigation into the events of that hellish day.
Here's a link to how the family of the Marine who was killed by the IED is responding to the smearing of these Marine's by Murtha - who knows as little as the rest of us do.
My finest military consultant source will be attending a closed door meeting with Pentagon officials today, discussing the known facts of the case and as I am able to I will bring you his results here.
Mary Katharine Ham also highlighted this piece. In light of Memorial Day, and the ever eager Congressman Murtha to smear our serving men and women I feel like its more than appropriate to highlight a story of sheer bravery, it features the story of the 173rd Airborne from November 8, 1965 - when the entire unit was attacked by 1200 Viet Cong.

Also worth another look - "We Were Soldiers" by Mel Gibson - the true story of Col. Hal Moore where his 395 men overran 4000 Viet Cong in Vietnam's Death Valley.
