"He was a hero there."

Right. Shoots a wounded, unarmed man in the back and then writes himself up for a Silver Star. Real heroic.

You forgot the "wounded by a .50 caliber machine gun" part.

I'd like to see more of this incident in the press. At best, he executed a wounded enemy soldier, who should have been captured (POW). At worst, this "wounded man" may actually have been a village boy, running from the scene after being caught in the crossfire!
