One has to wonder why so many protocols were breached in the recent tragic deaths of Navy Seals...
Why were so many highly trained Seals traveling ALL TOGETHER?
Why were they using the type of helicopter that they did? it wasn't the one usually used.
Why did they have Afghanistanis with them?
Speculation on what mission they were on.
:confused:
You are right. Something is not right about the whole thing. As an ex military man, I can tell many stories of things that happened that were never officially reported. We once had 2 reporters with us on a two month mission. They requested a helicopter out of there after two days. My CO was peeved because it gave our position away to the enemy.

My nephew was Airbornne in the Desert Storm. He did his work alone. If he was given an order, that is what he did...

My stepson will tell you that the fire on the USS George Washington (http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,357924,00.html) was a LOT worse than was reported. He was there - his ship was ordered to help out and he became a firefighter for a day.

This I can easily believe. Publicly reporting damage that could lessen the mission capability of a ship would be irresponsible under the circumstances. The 'right to know' does not supersede the right of force safety.

Pull the plug, hide the remote, give it a try...I think you will like it! TV free for 26 months. Have lost weight, improved relationship with spouse and kids and pets, cycling 50-75miles per week, and don't miss TV one teeny tiny bit! Go online and get the entertainment and news that you need and when you need it. Heck, that is how we came across The Villages~while surfing the net :cool:

Katz-

Congratulations on unplugging your television. I hope that you do go to a variety of news websites for your news and not just one. True, the television news has only a couple of minutes of news each program but it is good to get a crossmatch of opinions.

Hope you also go to a variety of on-line newspapers to get all sides of the issues.

The bike riding is a great thing. Be careful and keep it up!
