Shades of Thich Quang Duc, and it won't change a damn thing.

Must have been smoking something prior to the fire?
Really, we need to consider how many of these 'deviates' are within our military. How many are just waiting for an opportunity to display their true agendas?

GI suicides are always sad & happen too often. Even worse is when the suicide is politicized, like this one.

Tragedy for a family who will never live it down, of course. Cynically, the AF is better off.

The guy has died.
The man was pronounced dead at a hospital Sunday night.

I was going to say, I have worked several severe burns while I was a paramedic, although none of my patients' burns were self inflicted. It is a horrible and painful injury. A person standing as this man was, his face is at the top of the fireball and he will inhale the flames and smoke. Pulmonary burns. I was going to say he will be dead tomorrow but he beat me to it.

Yep, when AF is forced to lower standards for recruits.
Recruiting so tough right now they are asking for some retirees to come back to AD.

It is good that he died in away, there are some injuries that are worse than dying.

"The time for hesitation's through
No time to wallow in the mire
Try now, we can only lose
And our love become a funeral pyre
Come on, baby, light my fire..."

Mental illness and maybe incurable/operable disease, too? Maybe someone paid him to do this stunt? I hope they do an autopsy to exclude my theories.

Mental illness knows no bounds. Got caught up in the rhetoric of politics and took it to the maximum. Sad in all aspects.

Oh, ‘torches’.

I think he attended too many Burning Man Festivals and decided to play it out…..

It is always sad when someone is so ill that they can believe this stunt would make any difference in situation.
Unfortunately, A BOC song keeps playing in my head every time I look in on this thread....
