This article gives a few quick details on the “60 Minutes” interview given by Staff Sergeant Frank Wuterich regarding his actions in Haditha, Iraq on November 19, 2005. Examine the key final paragraph which is Wuterich’s explanation and evaluation of the events on that fateful day nearly a year and a half ago. Is this a correct assesment of how soldiers and marines are trained or is it a mischaracterization by Wuterich? Also, if he is, in fact, accurately describing current training, does that training need to be re-evaluated or is it correct and are his actions justified? Discuss.
Update! Sorry I forgot to link the original article.
I have now fixed that oversight. ![]()
