Doing the right thing is tough business in a politically charged environment where multiple factions have agendas to prosecute at the expense of others and the truth. Time has passed for us to step back and appreciate the analysis of the situation and the actions of leaders involved at various levels. The author i I appreciate the author embarking on this endeavor to provide a detailed accounting of who, what, when, where, why things happened.

The author indicates much was learned from the events that transpired. Was and is this knowledge being used to prevent future occurrences? It appears the jury is still out. Either way, Bob Shadley did a great job of objectively sharing his experiences and lessons learned from this major event.
