Speaking for four heroes who no longer have a voice. We will not be silent. The present administration in Washington, DC was breifed on the inadequate security of our embasy in Bengazi Libia. They were updated regarding growing threats, and deteriorating situation, There was an assassination attempt on the British ambassador. They closed their embasy the next day. On June sixthed
our own embasy was attacked with a large hole in the perimeter wall. The Red Cross had to leave. US Ambassador Stevens sent requests to keep the security team that was temporarily there. It was refused. Finally, the feared attack happened. Two heroes had to disobey orders to ”stand down”, in order to help the US citizens trapped in our embasy. They repeatedlly asked for help. It never came. They held off the attack long enough to get some 30 US citizens out. They pinpointed the location where the mortars were coming from and were prepared to mark them for fighter jets that never came. Injured, and bleeding, they fought on, holding our sovereign US soil waiting for
reinforcements that didn’t arrive because they were told to ”stand down”. Ambassador Chris Stevens, diplomat Steve Smith, former seal Tyrone Woods and former seal Greg Doherty died waiting for the help that never came because they were told to ”stand down”. Speaking for 4 herroes lost in Bengazi
