According to
the citation
on the award, this noble, young man went to astonishing
lengths to help his fellow troops. He disregarded orders to
remain at a safe distance from the ambush and proceeded to save the
lives of 36 fellow Marines, soldiers and Afghani military members.
".. he disregarded orders to remain safe"
is key tho this story.
Less than a year after leaving the Corps, Sgt.Meyer went to work for
BAE Systems, a British company with extensive U.S.
operations. When he learned that BAH was planning to sell
high-tech rifle sniper scopes to the Pakistani military, he
objected. The company were not amused. Meyer decided to leave to
work for another defense contractor when BAH
retaliated. His supervisor effectively blocked his hiring
by making supposedly false claims that he was a drunk and had a mental
condition.
Yesterday the slandered hero filed a defamation lawsuit. This,
ladies and gentlemen, is a hero, and a stand-up guy for his nation's
interests, [Decorated
Marine Sues Contractor]

I've read elsewhere that Robert Mc Creight, the supervisor at BAE who disparaged Dakota, belittled his Medal of Honor award and torpedoed his chances for future employment, is a former Marine himself... and a sniper to boot. Mr McCreight may very well possess the requisite skill set that will enable him to soar like an eagle in the corporate world and Dakota may end up digging ditches, but the big difference is that Dakota will be doing it with his dignity and honor intact.
ReplyDeleteExcellent work on the photograph, by the way. The truth of the matter is that Chump in Chief doesn't deserve to occupy the same room as Dakota.

Our European "Allies" have been selling hi tech to our enemies for decades. Steyr .50 cal rifles to various Muslim countries for instance. Combine those with IR scopes...
