Brumar...I don't really know what happened and I don't think Tillman's family does either.

You know it's not unheard of that a new guy comes into a Unit and presents himself as sort of a "pain in the ass" and ends up taking one in the back.

A lot of Second Lieutenants in Vietnam and previous Wars came in with a little too much "Gungho" and were unceremoniously dispatched by their more "worldly" peers.

I don't really know Tillman's story, but I have to think he was followed by a LOT of publicity and interest and that might have made him less than popular.

I just don't like the way the whole thing was handled.
