**OT** Well, I don't get it. I am glad to have the 3 “prisoners of war” back from the Serbs, but…

As I understand it:

They separated from the two other vehicles they were with, to get some thing to eat, going against regulations. They then proceeded to put themselves at great risk by getting to close to the border while searching to join the others.

Then when attacked and under fire, since the machine gun was latched down, the gunner just closed the hatch and they tried to flee. In their flight to escape they drove the vehicle into a ditch. Something you would expect Gomer Pile to do…of course they were captured with out having returned a single shot.

For this brilliant display of American fighting prowess…they each receive six medals, some for bravery! And, NOW “parades” as they return to the mainland.

What would we have done if, they actually did “something” right? Give them each the Congressional Medal of Honor????

Bill Clinton and his political maneuvering have to be behind this.

Regards,
LG
