After 13 years, CIA honors Green Beret killed on secret Afghanistan mission

For more than a decade, the CIA did not recognize SFC Chapman's role as a communication specialist on a CIA paramilitary team. Finally, more than 13 years later, SFC Chapman shall forever be remember on the wall and book of Honor.

"when they inventoried Chapman’s gear later that day, the magazine in his M4 carbine was empty with its bolt locked to the rear — evidence that he had expended every round he could before collapsing from blood loss."

Extraordinary. Which, if you read more about SFC Chapman, sounds like it comes as no surprise.

Nice.

In the first link where there is a hand written letter from him to his family on cardboard from Panama, "Rangers lead the way, not the 82nd Airborne" :D
