Betty observed:
It's "under investigation."
Which usually means, "Let's stall until the press loses interest."
Reality: The press lost interest long ago.
Another American who should have been somewhere else, not being used to continue the never-ending Iraq War -- a war that his 14 years next month.
14 years.
And Barack swore he would end it.
Liar.
He's a War Criminal and so is Bully Boy Bush.
Mike Glenn (HOUSTON CHRONICLE) notes, "Odiorne was originally from Ware, Mass. - about 80 miles west of Boston. He joined the Army in October 2015 and had been at Ford Hood since May 2016." Anthony Fay and Hayley Crombleholme (WWLP) report, "Since May, Odiorone had been assigned to the 2nd Battalion, 82nd Field Artillery Regiment, 3rd Brigade Combat Team, and 1st Cavalry Division out of Fort Hood, Texas. He entered active-duty service as a cannon crewmember in 2015."
Honoring #USArmy PFC Brian P Odiorne, died Feb 20, 2017 in Iraq. Honor him so he is not forgotten.
Brandon Gray (KCEN) reports on the passing, Samara Abramson (WESTERN MASS NEWS) speaks with those who knes Odiorne:
Odiorne's loved ones said that he stayed in touch with them even when he was busy.
"Even if we didn't get to talk until the next day, we'll make sure that we at least keep in touch, like 'Hey, I'm okay, I'm letting you know I'm safe'," [Kelsie] Delisle added.
Delisle spoke to Odiorne on the phone every night, including Sunday - the night before he died.
"We'd always tell each other every night, when we hung up, that we missed each other and we loved each other and I'll talk to you tomorrow," Delisle explained.
That's what they told each other Sunday night, but Delisle found out about her close friend's death Monday morning after reading a post on Facebook.
"I don't know what to do and I have not stopped crying since then because it feels like I lost a part of me," Delisle said.
Patrick Johnson (MASS LIVE) notes rememberances of Brian Odiorone on social media including this from Brianna Woodman:
I can't believe what I'm
hearing... I had just received a message from you the other day asking
to check up on your grandmother for you every now and then since you
can't always talk to her. I promise I will visit her. This is just so
surreal. You were such a kind, gentle, caring person who's heart was as
big as your smile. Thank you for serving our country, RIP Brian Odiorne, you'll be missed and never forgotten.
And he notes Molly Przybyla:
I lost the most incredible man I have ever met. Brian made me who I am today, he broke me out of my shell, and helped me be more confident and out going and I didn't get the chance to tell him that he is the love of my love, the one I was supposed to end up with. We were supposed to get back together but at least I know how he felt about me, told me he never stoped loving me, and I told him I loved him too. I will never forget him, I will always hold him in my heart forever... and noone can ever replace that he's my soul mate and his family will always be my family. I am so sorry, you guys always where there for me and I love you guys and I love you
That's about all from the western press.
