Soldiers' mothers demand truth
Pat Tillman's mom to confront CongressBy Julia Prodis Sulek, MEDIANEWS STAFF
Three Northern California mothers are bonded together by death and deceit.
Each was told by the military that her son died gloriously in battle — charging up a hill to confront the enemy, fighting off an ambush or saving 60 fellow soldiers.
And each found out later — five weeks for one, 15 months for another, and two years for another — that the stories were false.
One of them — Mary Tillman of San Jose, whose son, Patrick, gave up an NFL contract to join the Army Rangers — will address a congressional panel Tuesday to demand the dignity of the truth and an explanation for the lies.
The sons of the two other mothers, Karen Meredith of Mountain View and Nadia McCaffrey of Tracy, were less well known but they feel equally betrayed. They talk almost daily and are counting on Mary Tillman to carry their message to Congress: This does not happen only to high-profile families.
"I wish I could be in Washington. I wish it could be Nadia, Mary and me. Those generals would probably run from the room," Meredith said. "I pity Congress if the three of us get in front of them. I say that with much amusement. They deserve everything they would get from us."
