Which makes sense, what would be the point of setting up a relay station in an area where the enemy wasn't? Because it was only a relay station, to link combat communications back to their command center.

This is what I mean by a flat out lie. Coulter and others took existing information and spun it. But you're making this BS up. Can you provide any evidence that he EVER refuted the claim that he was going to have a beer with his buddies? If you can, then I think you have an argument. But I couldn't find that. I'm inclined to believe if it weren't true, he would have at least said, no, it isn't true. All you've come up with is the remark of a commander who wasn't even there. Per my link, the grenade was someone else's. Your link (which I previously read and discounted as lacking credibility) was a letter, ostensibly written by someone who wasn't there, who took issue with the man who was injured. I'm sorry, but such a link is not authoritative and lacks credibility. AFAIK, there is no real debate over this. Cleland has clearly made a statement about the incident in his autobiography which neither of us has read.
