I'm not trying to keep any hope alive. I just want to see a fair and unbiased investigation.

It seems that there WERE NO OTHER shots being fired. They looked at all the equipment and it seems that NONE of it had taken ANY external hits, which pretty much rules out a firefight of any sort. Even if the Taliban couldn't hit a soldier, they would have had a hard time not at least nicking one of the humvees.

O'neal was as green as they come, and he wouldn't know what the heck was going on. What he DID know was that the guys that shot at Tillman were close enough that you could see their faces and Tillman had put up a flare and then stood up.

Maybe they DIDN'T kill him on purpose. Maybe the guy that shot him was just SO incompetent that he couldn't tell a U.S. soldier from a Taliban at close range. If that's the case then they should STILL investigate it so that guy doesn't blow off some other U.S. soldier's head.
