The following is quoted from above:

“If your outside of the military, it’s hard to grasp the importance of training in military life. To turn young men and women into war-ready professionals is a serious process, involving significant expediture of time and money. It’s an investment that builds are Army, and makes it the best in the world. For an Army that has spent the last nine years at war, creating an evolutionary training process that reflects changing needs on the ground is incredibly important. It makes the difference in our success, and saves lives.”

It is poorly written and should be checked prior to posting. The improper usage of “your” should be “you’re”. Also the use of “are Army” is incorrect. It should have been “our Army”. It is obvious that spell check was not even used. Please see “expediture” above. It should be expenditure.

I appreciate the Army’s attempt to gain ground on information ops through the use of a blog, but if the content is hard to read, then it is degrading the intent.

Lt. Michael Brehenna sits in Fort Leavenworth prison for protecting his own life against a known Al-Qaeda member. Expert witness testimony rejected by the military prosecutors and never informed to the defense, in direct violation of the Brady Material.

Lt. Brehenna deserves a new trial and most importantly, this American hero should be set free. Instead, he has been punished by the same military that he so proudly served.
