Historical hero or a liar?

This is what is supposed Dakoya happened to Meyer in September 2009 when he was marine in Afghanistan was his patrol car with two sections of Afghan troops heading to a town called Ganjgal when they were attacked. Four of the co-Meyer became caught fire several bursts with so many soldiers. Meyer could hear on the radio. He had been ordered to stand still, but ignored. Like a madman, rushed to the heavy gunfire and went to where his companions. In the end, that day would end up saving 37 people (about two dozen Afghans among them) on several trips. He broke five trucks that were so intense bursts of bullets. The last trip I made up and went to recover the bodies of their dead comrades.An incredible story. Both Meyer became the first soldier from the Vietnam War, receiving the highest honor you can give the U.S. a member of the army: the Medal of Honor.But there is another version.In that convoy was another person, a journalist named Jonathan Landay, who has submitted a report claiming that everything is quite exaggerated. Meyer could not save because at the U.S. 13 traveling alone were 12 and four others were killed Meyer. Of the survivors, no one saw a Meyer kill those eight Taliban killed are supposed to, but remember that some were saved by a helicopter that came later. The rest said they got in the truck all by themselves while Meyer sought refuge. Nor is it clear that Meyer was ordered to sit still.The Marines have rejected this report. Say it is easier than in a battlefield to see things differently, and has followed a rigorous research process to deliver the Medal of Honor, including witnesses, graphics, and two major investigations. What is not known is the version of Meyer himself. The army continues to refer to the version that is posted on their website to not make the sergeant now have to repeat what he considers "the worst day of his life."The curious thing is that this change of image, from hero to liar, is not the first big problem with Meyer since he received the Medal of Honor. It has also been sued by the company that hired him when he returned home, the arms manufacturer BAE Systems. It turns out that this company spent as much effort to put their weapons on both U.S. soldiers and Afghans. And Meyer that sounded wrong. So he explained to his boss by e-mail: "While my job is to create better weapons for my countrymen, I am doing. But arming those killing our people ...". BAE sued him for libel, and dismissed him. Since then, no private company related to the military-even those who directed his friends-he wanted to hire. All cite the demand. Meyer, the only veteran of Afghanistan, which Obama has personally decorated, the Maxim magazine that wanted to be his military technician, who starred in an article in the prestigious entire 60 minutes, is now working as a mason.
