This was in the AZ news this morning. Richard Tillman seems not to have the character he credits his brother.

Richard Tillman, Pat's younger brother, recently discussed the tragedy on 'Real Time with Bill Maher'.

Richard was on Maher's show Friday, saying that what happened to his brother was "gross negligence" and "criminal."

Richard said, "I wish he would've just lit these [expletive] idiots up with his own gun, you know. 'Cause he knew that they were shooting at him. I wish he didn't have so much character, and he would've shot his own guys."

"I wish he would have been like, you guys are [expletive] clowns, and just lit 'em up," he added.

Interesting, given the fact that his other brother, Kevin, was in that second element.

Just recently read the Krakauer book on Tillman.

If the book is accurate on describing the events at that pass, it seems a soldier died due to the decisions made during the operation & "fog of war". Also if the book is factual on how the fratricide was handled, seems that several mistakes were made and the death was used as a political piece.

However, the family cant seem to let it go and keeps on making accusations of who knows what and stupid statements like that dont change what has happened..

And in a perfect world, Yoko Ono would have stepped in front of John.
