Man I'm sincerely sorry that happened to you and especially your three friends. It sounds criminal that was allowed to happen.
You said the "LTC withheld intel and sent us into a hornet's nest....with no support" because "If it worked he would have got his promotion." Even leaving aside the craven soulless callousness of that, it just sounds fucked in the head if the idea made any kind of good sense to him. Evidently the guy didn't know his ass from a hole in the ground. Horrible he advanced as far in the ranks as he did.
I'm sorry again man that that happened. You and your three friends really deserved better leadership, but that can't ever take away what beautiful & brave young lion-hearted men you all were. I dunno if that sounds right but I hope you understand what I'm saying. God bless you and your friend and God keep your other two friends.
How do you know?

Just goddamn. And yes, fuck Islam. And everything u/CannonballJunior said above. Sorry man.
China may be asshoe, but Islam was the original asshoe
How do you get past this?
Like I said. Lion hearts.
Sometimes I wonder if this isn't a requirement for moving up the ranks.
Sorry about your friends, DocOne, that's just sad.
I want to say something, but I have nothing that matters. Only that he has to rot in hell.
