I've read this with interest. Thanks for the clear and well informed posts, all of you guys who know how it works in the real world.
This story clearly shows a degree of spin.
I wonder if it would even be possible for the US press to run a story that said "these soldiers died because they did not use their equipment correctly, and did not fight a sensible battle"; this being the feeling I get from the well informed opinions above - please forgive me if I'm over-simplifying.
