“Scott Thomas” now known as Private Scott Thomas Beauchamp writes:
That being said, my character, my experiences, and those of my comrades in arms have been called into question, and I believe that it is important to stand by my writing under my real name.
Isn’t this just a bit too precious? The guy writes about how his comrades mock disfigured women, slaughter dogs and wear baby skulls as hats, but he’s upset that others have called his and his comrades’ character into question? Someone explain that to me.
In fact, much of the criticism has been that U.S. soldiers would have better characters than those described in his pieces. Sorry: No sale. Scot Thomas Beauchamp may or may not be honest, but he’s by no means a victim.
