Surprised that he was not fragged in Nam.

Fragging was rare, and was by definition done to incompetent field commanders who kept getting people killed (as opposed to a one time mistake). Murtha was a rear echelon type, for the most part. Fragging was not simply murdering people for being an a**hole - that is a hollywood attack on our troops.
