and we get fired upon and remembered as...
The two of us here, are still waiting to hear why there wasn't an operational transponder with that unit as is SOP for a nightfire training mission...
Not trying to detract from what happened but if there was one of those little things with the radioman like there should have been, then the unit would have been ID'd from the start as friendlies or friendlies taken hostage... Too many simple mistakes end up with someone dying, and all for no good reason.
btw, the phrase "Don't be a Poindexter" has been around alot longer than that particular idiot did what he did. lol No clue where it came from but the phrase was in some of the old 40's era movies. He must have had a screwup dad eh?
