Smith’s coverage of RCT‐31 east of the reservoir, a topic that will contain many comments by this editor because it not only contains errors, but also exposes his limited knowledge of what had happened in that action, as well as noting an attempt to absolve his command of responsibility for a subordinate command, in this case an Army Regimental Combat Team.
