I don't buy this. If the plane was close enough to shoot with a rifle, I would have expected them to notice it was an airliner from the second largest airline of South Korea?



Something tells me that this is something thought up by their CO to save face; these soldiers won't be allowed near guns again for a while.

Two marines spent 10 minutes firing 99 rounds at a plane that was out of range? That's just silly.
