Chaotic, Deadly Day for Charlie Company
Re "A Deadly Day for Charlie Company," Aug. 26: I last wore
the uniform nearly 40 years ago, but I got really mad when I
read the poignant story told by the guys who survived the
first few days in Iraq, about what President Bush, Defense
Secretary Donald Rumsfeld, et al, are doing to my Marine
Corps. They not only lied to us about the real reason for
invading Iraq; they tried to do it on the cheap. No armor for
the "tracks." Fuel-short tanks diverted on a rescue mission.
Weak batteries. Lousy communications. Pictures of 18 good
Marines killed — for what?
