WHY WAS PAT TILLMAN"S DIARY BURNED? Will someone please ask

[Decruiter]

the question? Please!

Ask the question guys, they are right in front of you. Ask them why!

[Deja Q]

1. Because it got too chilly in Baghdad that night and they needed to get warm by buring things?

:hide:

[Decruiter]

3. They were in the mountains of Afghanistan, not Baghdad, come on

Hyp, you know better.

Even if it was cold on the mountain or in the valley, that diary was to have been held close. His brother was there. WTF happened that day?

[Maat]

2. I agree ...

that is key.

4. Not just his diary. Why did they burn his clothes?

Why was his armor destroyed?

[dkofos]

5. Cover up

Why was his uniform burned? Cover up


Any way you look at it, the men (bad choice of word) in his squad
covered up his death.

6. burn

The same reason they shredded or burned the 9/11 ATC tapes? :shrug: :hi:

[OmmmSweetOmmm]

7. And I want to know why, in the hearing that just ended, how come this never

came up, nor the fact that he was killed with 3 bullets to the head at a range of 30 feet????http://wcbstv.com/topstories/topstories_story_207212230.html

8. Well all, the hearing is over and not one single representative asked the key questions.

Not one damned thing was resolved, not one person held accountable.

I quit. I'm firing them, yes I am, I can do it and I am going to.

EXEMPT on taxes.

I pay not one dime until I have some representation. PERIOD!

Take me away, agent Mike.

9. What??!!

I had not heard his body had been burned.

What the hell is this?

Is this common practice in the field? Because if it has something has changed that I have never heard of.

10. According to one of the Tillman stories on Monday (don't remember if it was SFGate or TPM)

The diary wasn't burned. The Dept. of Defense refuses to release it.

11. Careful, we don't want to upset the center by asking questions that make us seem like rabble rousers

We don't want to engage in political theater, like the Republicans said we did.

12. Wonkette says the Pentagon still has his diary. Link:

"The Pentagon still has his diary that he kept with him in Afghanistan, where he was killed, and they won’t release it to his family."

Someone posted this link earlier and I was shocked to read that the pentagon still has his diary.

[Decruiter]

13. I had not heard this, the Pentagon has his diary and refuses to give it to

his Mom? You have just got to be kidding me!

If I were his Mom and I just even thought they were keeping his last thoughts from me I would be arrested day after day until they gave it back to me!

I had only read his diary had been burned along with everything else.

Anyone have more info on this?
