Sickens me. :(
“Alvarez advised that he was in Iran and was on a mission to rescue the U.S. ambassador,” FBI agents later wrote in an affidavit describing their interview with Ms. Campbell (http://www.washingtontimes.com/topics/melissa-campbell/) days later. “During the raid, Alvarez (http://www.washingtontimes.com/topics/xavier-alvarez/) was wounded several times, but returned to the U.S. Embassy to retrieve the U.S. flag that was flying.”
To Ms. Campbell (http://www.washingtontimes.com/topics/melissa-campbell/), the story sounded an awful lot like the plot from the movie “Rules of Engagement,” starring Samuel L. Jackson, whose character rescues the flag from the embassy — though the movie-version embassy was in Yemen, not Iran, as told by Mr. Alvarez (http://www.washingtontimes.com/topics/xavier-alvarez/)
it gets deeper
Another time, she said, Mr. Alvarez (http://www.washingtontimes.com/topics/xavier-alvarez/) said he wasn’t getting on any helicopters on the tour because he had been in two other Edison helicopter crashes
and deeper
she asked him from which base he retired. She said Mr. Alvarez (http://www.washingtontimes.com/topics/xavier-alvarez/) said that he had retired from Camp Pendleton as “Delta,” or Special Operations Delta Force. To Ms. Campbell (http://www.washingtontimes.com/topics/melissa-campbell/), the answer didn’t make sense.
until it hits the bottom
One supervisor said, “I don’t understand why you made such a big deal. You’re not even a Marine anymore,” Ms. Campbell (http://www.washingtontimes.com/topics/melissa-campbell/) recalled.
“Do you understand what they do to earn their awards?” Ms. Campbell (http://www.washingtontimes.com/topics/melissa-campbell/) replied.
Suspended from her job, Ms. Campbell (http://www.washingtontimes.com/topics/melissa-campbell/) said she later got a phone call from the company asking her to attend a meeting. When she walked into the office, she said, she saw boxes full of her belongings.
It was official, she said — she’d been fired.
But he feels bad and was given probi and community service. I would have kicked his teeth in and ****ed on him.
Mr. Alvarez (http://www.washingtontimes.com/topics/xavier-alvarez/) ultimately was convicted and sentenced to probation and community service. In a sentencing letter, he wrote, “I’m so remorseful and embarrassed of my misconduct.”
