Scott Thomas Comes Forward… And Answers Precisely Nothing
Fob Falcon
The New Republic blog The Plank is featuring an entry from disputed diarist Scott Thomas, who has now come forward as Scott Thomas Beauchamp, and now the fun truly begins.
There are two parts to this entry: a preface from “the editors,” and then a statement by Beauchamp himself. I’ll now discuss each at length, and in turn.

The Private is obviously lying. If he were my private, he’d be up on charges. I’d Chapter him out in a heartbeat. He reflects great discredit upon himself, his unit and the United States Army.
In the military, you have rights, but not to the extent that you have in civilian life. If the private wants to write a novel, he can do that…wait until his ETS date and have at it.
But, obviously the private is a schmuck. Therefore, he deserves a schmucks reward: Investigate his allegations, pull him out of comabt, and if he is lying, Chapter his worthless ass out.
I got no patience for privates with an agenda. And I’m speaking as a former Infantry PSG.

July 26th, 2007 at 6:07 pmGuys - Either way you look at it be it his accusations false or true - his next orders will be to Ft Leavenworth Kansas.
“The fact that Beauchamp has become the darling of the left-of-center media as a result of his “speaking out” is ironic at best – for, if what he says is true, then he not only witnessed some very unfortunate examples of human depravity (not to mention potential war crimes), but participated in them.
Had he really witnessed such things, and had he really wanted to make a difference in preventing them, then, as Major Kirk Luedeke (Public Affairs Officer for the 4th IBCT on FOB Falcon) said, the right course of action would have been to report it immediately – thus sparking a military investigation into the events he recounted, rather than – as is now ongoing – into himself and his gross impropriety. ”

July 26th, 2007 at 8:38 pmScott Thomas sent me an email. I posted it at my website if anyone wants to see it.
July 26th, 2007 at 9:40 pmI hope they really put this guy through the anal exam and if he’s lying he needs to be sent home and court martialed and his no good lying ass needs to be exposed for the entire nation to see.

July 26th, 2007 at 10:46 pmI almost wish some of his stories were just a little true, true enough that he could be hauled up for participating/failing to report the same. Mutherfucker must die.
July 26th, 2007 at 10:51 pmI want to know if anyone in his command is aware of what he is doing. And if so what they are doing to remedy the situation. For arguments sake..lets assume he’s telling the truth well then he’s obvisouly violating UCMJ. Which has been said many times before. If he’s lying I’m not sure what exactly they could get him with but since his prior private blog posts has made his intentions completely clear then hey if they can get him for treason just for joinging in order to under cut our effort than so be it.
July 26th, 2007 at 10:57 pmShame on him and shame on anyone who defends him truth or not. He obvisouly can’t follow any kind of code other than some kind of classification of Narcissistic personality disorder.
Those barracks look at least semi-permanent. Note the individual window A/C units. Better than central A/C as it could be taken out by one strike. A/C is important.
Probably four to a room. The roof is a watch platform.
