I routinely support our military in its endeavors, but I, too, must protest at their fleecing of Michael Yon.
Memo to the Army: Yon was one of the best war correspondents of the past 4 years and brought a lot of perspective and flavor to those of us watching from the stateside sidelines. To treat him unjustly is more than just rude – it’s abjectly stupid. Apologize and pay the man his due. For goodness’ sake, he had to appeal his case to Ted Kennedy to get any traction on this issue.
Sheesh. A bureaucracy is a bureaucracy, I guess, no matter what uniform it wears.
