Enough political correctness! The trial of Marine Staff Sgt. Frank Wuterich, one of the so-called “Haditha Marines” mentioned in the foreword of my book, Three Days In August: A U.S. Army Special Forces Soldier’s Fight For Military Justice, ended today when he agreed to plead guilty to one count of negligent dereliction of duty, according [...]

Congressman John Murtha Dead at 77
February 8th, 2010 · 2 Comments
Rep. John Murtha (D-Pa.) has died at the age of 77 after succumbing to an infection following gall bladder surgery a few weeks ago. Aside from the fact that he served his country as a Marine in Vietnam, I can’t say that I liked him much. Still, his passing is newsworthy. Congressman Murtha first found [...]

Six Important Facts About the Assault Charges Three Navy SEALs Face for Doing Their Jobs
December 2nd, 2009 · 15 Comments
In recent years, I’ve published too many posts about members of the Armed Forces facing undeserved charges: First, it was the so-called “Haditha Marines” who faced trumped-up charges, thanks largely to idiots like Rep. John Murtha (D-Pa.) declaring them guilty before a mainstream media eager to paint them in a bad light. Next, it was [...]

Help Boot Jack Murtha From Congress!
August 26th, 2008 · No Comments
I learned through a comment on this post that an effort has been launched to help Pennsylvania Republican Bill Russell raise $200,000 by Sept. 11 en route to ousting turncoat Congressman Jack Murtha from the 12th Congressional District seat he’s held far too long. Not familiar with Murtha? He’s the Pennsylvania Democrat who described the [...]

Another ‘Greatest Generation’ Hero Passes
August 7th, 2008 · No Comments
When I learned of the passing of Eric “Digger” Dowling, another hero from the “Greatest Generation,” I couldn’t help but think about how his efforts may have been received by anti-war and environmental-extremist liberals had they taken place today. In case you’re not familiar with his story, Dowling was a British man whose efforts as [...]

On six occasions during the past two years, I’ve highlighted the case of Marine Corps Lt. Col. Jeffrey Chessani and his fellow Marines making up the group that came to be known in the media as the “Haditha Marines.” Today, I offer more news — VERY GOOD NEWS — about Colonel Chessani: Today, he was [...]
