Huh?
They were ambushed. Tillman and his unit were executing a standard immediate action maneuver.


Sorry, I was still tracking with the story I believe CD put out there that it was two US patrols intersecting by mistake.

It makes considerable sense how this occurred if it was an Afghan militia unit firing AK-47s..

I would also make the assumption that they were the enemy.. Hard to tell the difference..

Thanks for clearing that up.. But can you provide documentation? I haven't seen much in the way of actual facts regarding who was, or wasn't, involved in that firefight.
