Summary: Thats not the way I saw it!
Comment: Capt Rogers was very much in denial about his crew. Upon return to the US in 1988, 32 members of the ship were arrested, removed and discharged from the Navy for the use of drugs of various types. As the only law enforcement officer onboard the ship at the time. This book fails to even come close to fully disclose what did happen between July 1988 and May 1989. Yes, the downing was justified. However, the question still remains, WAS THE CREW THINKING CLEARLY AT THE TIME IT HAPPENED. The NCIS, FBI, myself and those onboard know what happen and no one is talking. Ms. Rogers's thoughts have been shaded buy her blind faith in her husband and the fact that the Navy did not want the word to get out about the crew and its drug use.

Summary: An Avoidable Tragedy
Comment: I have the utmost respect for the soldiers who risk their lives to defend our country and our way of life. But... when one looks at the fact about this so-called "accident" it is clear that those in charge were so full of war-time blood-lust to kill the "enemy." Who they killed were 290 innocent travelers on a commercial airline.

Of course, when one is responsible for such needless death, they need to create another reality in their heads so they can get by. But, the truth is there and it is important for all Americans to know what our military does in our name.

God bless the hard working and intelligent soldier. Rogers is not one of these men.

Summary: Not a bad read...in fact, not a read at all.
Comment: The epitome of history as fictional narrative. Buyer beware.
