The Pentagon is trying to cover their own butts in this fiasco. He may not have been intentionally left behind, but he was. As GetHereQuickly said, they should have flooded the area where his beacon was being registered but they didn't. 2 days is way to long to leave someone in the field injured or dead.
Tell us your military experience, tell us what the situation was during these 2 days. You just don't flood anything when doing a search and rescue, you plan....
Why not wait till the investigation is over to post the bold?
well, getherequickly has said many times in this very forum
They intentionally left him behind. That is a bold accusation, isn't that?
I did not say he was "intentionally" left behind. I said he was left behind. There was absolutely no reason why it should have taken 2 days to find someone with a active beacon with today's technology.

well. gothereasquickasIcould (or whatever her name is) did
I didn't say you. She posted they intentionally left him behind at least 4,5 times in this very forum (in different threads.)

Did you feel the same when it came to Benghazi? According to your fellow Conservatives, we should have swarmed Benghazi within minutes of the call.
Have you lost anybody in combat? You need to leave people's grief alone, man, you really do.
In the first place, I'm a woman.
In the second place, I've lost people I've loved to war.
I became an adult during the Vietnam War. When I stand at that wall, I can run my fingers along names and recall faces, smiles, good times. Schoolmates from kindergarten on through high school graduation.
The first man I ever slept with is nothing but a memory and a name on that damn wall because of that damn war and all the damn lies.
It wasn't just those who died we lost. Many came back an empty shell. I worked on Crisis Response teams for years and have met more than my share.
Why do you think this breaks my heart?
Kelly's grief has got nothing on Cowanda Jones-Johnson or Myeisha Johnson. They deserve answers not insulting phone calls.
Your posts remind me of that nitwit Sarah Huckabee-Sanders and her asinine claim that questioning Kelly would be "highly inappropriate."
We all should be questioning what went on here and why we are spending a ton of our taxes and going into debt to create enemies all over the world in order to protect "foreign investments."
Don't tell me about grief.
My heart is breaking for Sgt. Johnson's family and all the families with a picture on the piano and an empty place at the dinner table this Sunday.

Trump, a man that received MULTIPLE deferments to avoid serving in Vietnam because he's a coward, knows very little about what it means to be a "patriot."
At just 25 years old, La David Johnson was more of a patriot and a man than Trump ever was. Johnson was a man who proudly volunteered to serve his country and gave his life for it.
A guy with 5 deferments would say anything. Some rich people think military service is for the peons in the country.
