Nathaniel,
I don't think enough real information is out there to help answer your questions.I'm sure that Tillmans family knows more about this than anyone else.The fact that his brother was also on the same mission(although not with him at the time of the killing).The probability that he was much liked by the other soldiers with him.I am inclined to think that it was just a friendly fire accident,and the soldiers "freaked" when they realized what happened.Then,they tried to cover things up.I don't know,just my sorta educated guess.Friendly fire accidents happen all to often.I've seen it happen myself in Vietnam.Shit,I even took a stray.22 caliber round in my side while just sitting on a rock fishing in California!Strange things happen when lead is flying about.Can you post some information that will shed some light on the situation?
