unfortunaly if the soldiers that were from your hometown are MP's then not its not it. One of them was a female solider named Kelly Bosveld. This happened October last year when I was there.

yes media involvement has really messed things up. Several times my unit would plan a raid on a house (i.e. counterfeiters) and the raid would go bad because the media rep. assigned to my BN leake info. hence allowing the mission to go bad, luckly now troops were injured or killed, but there have been several cases were the involvement of the media has gotten troops killed.

Yeah, the one I was thinking of happened on June 5. Three soldiers died when their vehicles were attacked. Story


On a sick sidenote, check out the results I got from this spyware pop-up window deal when I searched for "three Oregon soldiers killed in Iraq"

I've never hated pop-up windows more
