Wiffleball never lets you forget what a twat he (wiffleball) is. 

Well if this isn’t a pot/kettle scenario, I don’t know what is

Pretty much the same. I thought it was an honorable thing he did. I still do. It was a dumb war but most are, doesn’t change that some are willing to sacrifice. We should honor that more by not having it end up in vain but it’s not the individual soldier’s call

Well said Worms. And I’m no twat.

Yep. We should honor our heroes and demand accountability from our leaders, but we won't.

Pat Tillman and I are close to the same age and he did what most men wouldn't; Including myself.  He was so moved / pissed at 9/11 that he quit his job and served America.  I respect the hell out it and God Bless him and others like him.

I refuse to let politics and the dumbassery of politicians over the past 19 years sway that view. 

 

 

This post wins. The entire week.

6. Less than a month in country, Pat was killed in a friendly-fire incident with three shots to the head from roughly 10 yards away. Pat's cause of death was immediately concealed from the American public. 

By the time of Pat's memorial service, his family still had no idea. https://t.co/CMave3rpb3 https://twitter.com/Partisan_O/status/1517945734166990849?s=20&t=dgBaBStgMpumqhz9hSAPPQ

Interesting that you bumped this today, as this is the day of the annual Pat's Run, a 4.2 mile charity run.  In celebration my wife and I did a 5 mile hike (goal was 4.2 but we didn't know how long it would end up).

Completely inconsequential. However,

Well, I'm certainly not drafting him.

I just saw this, and pretty much what I've suspected...

Former NFL star Pat Tillman was hailed as a hero in 2004 after he was "killed by the Taliban." But it was a lie — he'd been killed by friendly fire. And while the shooting has since been described as accidental, some believe it was intentionally planned by the U.S. Army.

Not only was Tillman shot three times in the head, but he was also shot at close range and it was later determined that the Army had lied about his unit being ambushed by the enemy. Eerily, all of Tillman's personal items had been burned — including his uniform and private journals. On top of that, rumors had surfaced that he was about to go public about his opposition to the invasion of Iraq and the War on Terror with a televised meeting with Noam Chomsky. But this meeting would never happen.
