NOW from PBS|Fog of War Episode
Dozens of families say the military has misled them about how their loved ones died, and the army has officially acknowledged seven instances of misinformation. In the most high-profile case, the army is finishing its fourth investigation into the death of former pro football player Pat Tillman in Afghanistan two years ago. This time, they are investigating to see if facts were intentionally covered up. But Tillman is not the only disturbing case. NOW talks to the mother of Army Pfc. Jesse Buryj, reportedly killed by friendly fire in Iraq. "They have two options: to tell me who killed my son, or to have a very good reason why they can't figure it out," Buryj tells NOW. "Those are their only two options. And one will not be acceptable." Also this week, David Brancaccio talks to Tyler Drumheller, a 25-year veteran of the Central Intelligence Agency, to get his insight into past intelligence blunders and what anti-terrorism tactics we can expect from the CIA moving forward.
