The Weirick's post on the burning bodies incident

LtCol James W. Weirick, USMC (Ret)
The Weirick (a retired Marine Corps lieutenant colonel judge advocate) has posted this story about an incident in which bodies were burned by Marines in Iraq in 2004. One hopes the complete investigation is made available. If the involved Marines acted out of necessity, the Weirick argues, their conduct should not be disavowed. Watch this space.
