The Tillman Case: WHO is the chaplain who contradicts Sgt. O'Neal's Testimony?

And where did he come from?

‘Tillman Testimony Disputed’

http://www.azcentral.com/arizonarepublic/


There are two different versions of the last minutes of Tillman’s life which reflect on the personality and character of the former football hero’s life. Good guy/bad guy!!!

One from Sgt. Brian O’Neal who was next to Tillman when he was shot who said Tillman was asking the “friendlies” to stop shooting.

The other from an “unnamed chaplain” who contradicts O’Neal’s testimony in a way that O’Neal says Tillman never would have degraded him. O’Neal also claims he does not ever remember talking with the man.

4. I read ths last night BUT this Chaplain's NAME has to come out

in the open. His testimony is relevant He MUST be identified and he must testify at the next hearing.

5. It is just the normal process

A bit of character assassination. The General used a line that the Tillman family weren't Christians so they couldn't deal with the death, the Chaplain is playing off a similar theme. Discredit Tillman so some will focus that he was a Atheist, in too many minds this will be all they need to hear to dismiss the rest of the story.

6. If this is the normal process and those bastards

are allowed to get away with this smear and God knows what else is involved - then we, as Americans, deserve everything that comes our way from them.

7. The chaplain could be a real stand-up guy or he could be a fundie-groupie.

We need to know!

8. So...

We have a soldier who was actually on the scene when the event took place - and then we have this chaplain who was (pardon the pun) God knows where.

Which one should be believed?
