What really happened on October 4 in Niger?

On October 4, Johnson’s squad had heard reports that a leader of a militant group had been coming from Mali to resupply on fuel and food at Tongo Tongo, whose villagers are seen as sympathetic to the extremists. The Americans were keen to follow up with the Tongo Tongo village chief when they saw motorbikes in the horizon – a sign of likely terrorist activity. Motorbikes are the vehicle of choice of insurgent groups operating in the area, allowing them to easily navigate the harsh terrain, especially now, the end of the muddy rainy season.


Sgt. La David T. Johnson was an exemplary soldier who lost focus on his mission and his loyalty to the flag, the country and the President.

Eventually, after talking to the village chief, the troops got into their vehicles to return to their base, a two-hour drive. But less than five minutes after they drove out of the village, the convoy was ambushed by a group that outnumbered them two to one.
According to a Nigerian official, about 100 armed insurgents, many of whom were on motorbikes – two or three people a bike – as well as others in about 10 sport utility vehicles, surrounded the Americans. They were armed with heavy weapons, including anti-aircraft weaponry as well as rocket-propelled grenades, and a firefight lasting about two to three hours ensued.


During this time, two or three vehicles in Johnson’s convoy were destroyed and part of the convoy became separated when at least one of the Land Cruisers became stuck in the mud. According to the New York Times, Johnson was in the vehicle that had gotten stuck, along with Nigerian soldiers who also died.


However, American forces who survived the fight described one Land Cruiser driving away from the ambush at high speed in the opposite direction of the convoy. That Land Cruiser was driven by Johnson and was the only Land Cruiser that contained Nigerian soldiers and no other French or American soldiers. According to one survivor who spoke on condition of anonymity as investigations are still ongoing,
“As we came under heavy fire, I looked up and saw Johnson jump into one of the Land Cruisers and speed off in the other direction. That Land Cruiser was manned by the Nigerian soldiers who were with us, so I thought it was weird that he would do that instead of providing covering fire.”

Nigerian officials shared intelligence with the American forces in Niger that the meeting with the Tongo Tongo village chief had been arranged by Johnson and that he had leaked the information of the size of the squad and the convoy that would be at the village that day. This gave the Tongo Tongo village chief ample opportunity to stall for time as the Islamic militants brought down overwhelming firepower on the unsuspecting American soldiers. Johnson, who had intended to flee all along would have succeeded if not for the fact that he was shot and killed by a member of his own convoy.

It wouldn't surprise me. It's getting really polar now.

Either cite your sources or shut the fuck up SHILL

Hope this isnt something the fake news on the right tries to use so as to make tge left fake news side retaliate

This shit has got to stop. This “story” is from Fakebook.

No Green Beret would do that, regardless of race. Character flaws and personality quirks are weeded out. Too much at stake. The mission and your life depends on every squad member being flawless and efficient to a T during an operation.
During training they are exposed over and over again to mind breaking shit on purpose, to weed out the weakest link, for the safety of the team and the mission.

This is made up news by some Trump hating shills.

"According to a senior White House official who was privy to the discussions between the Pentagon and the Oval Office"

Cite YOUR source, shill.

Iranian democrats make up these fake news stories all day long

The OP should enlist and show these loonie lefties how it's done.

Link is no longer valid or woking

The link doesnt work but ive been wondering why he was found miles from where the soldiers were ambushed

Niger going to niger Unfortunately the level of soldier has gone down in the army what used to be hard charge no bulshit SF teams which had to go through a rigorous selection process and qualification as well as have an active-duty time and reach the realm of specialist. Is no longer existing now they take then off the streets send them in Infantry airborne rip School then Special Forces

So you're going to get the dumbasses at times and not the devoted

yeah something is not adding up

Bumping as a bookmark

Fake news he died a hero

You hate him because he's black admit it

Nearly three weeks after the deadly ambush on U.S. Special Ops forces in Niger, ABC News has learned chilling new details about the mission gone wrong from a survivor of the attack and a senior U.S. intelligence official.

Their accounts, provided in separate interviews, raise questions about why a second, potentially more dangerous mission was tacked on late in the day even after a second team that was supposed to join them was unable to do so.

What was started as a reconnaissance mission to meet with local leaders turned into a kill-or-capture mission aimed at a high-value target, according to both sources.

That target – codenamed Naylor Road – has ties to both al Qaeda and ISIS, according to the intelligence official.
According to multiple intelligence sources, this target is one of the U.S.’s “top three objectives in Niger,” one that the U.S. has been “actively pursuing.”

But that change in plan meant that the team was out for over 24 hours and put them at greater risk.

“They should have been up and back in a day. Because they were up there so f------ long on a mission that morphed, they were spotted, surveilled and ultimately hit,” the official said.

He was not a Green Beret. He was a Ranger.

so he was working for bot Al Qaeda and ISIS

has anybody checked to see if he is a muslim?

His body being found so far away from fellow fighters

raises a huge flag...

Is this guy connected with John Brennan some how?

with a locator beacon on his body, active and working in good order and he was left on the battlefield for 48 hours.
Huge flag why he wasn't found A LOT faster.

And OP is slurring him.
I hope his widow sues for libel.
