| Working as security, was he ordered to provide security unarmed by the State Department? Glen Doherty, a former Navy SEAL from Massachusetts, was one of the victims of the deadly attack on the U.S. Consulate in Benghazi, a family friend confirmed to Fox News. Doherty is the latest victim to be identified. The U.S. government earlier confirmed that U.S. Ambassador to Libya Christopher Stevens and Sean Smith, a foreign service information management officer, died in the attack. The name of the fourth American who died in the attack has not been disclosed. The Boston Globe first reported that Doherty was among the victims. His sister told the Globe that Doherty, 42, was working for a private company providing security at the time. A former ski instructor in Utah, Doherty reportedly trained as a sniper and medical officer after joining the Navy SEALs. He served for seven years before leaving to work at the private security firm. According to FOX5 in San Diego, Doherty lived in Encintas, Calif., after leaving the Navy. He worked at the CrossFIT/SEALFIT gym as well as security firms. Based on an account of the Benghazi attack provided by senior administration officials, Doherty was one of two people who died while trying to take cover from gunfire in the annex near the main U.S. consulate building. At least three others were wounded in the attack. Hillary, step down. |

| #1 I was a proud veteran That served my country well To those that would listen I had many stories to tell. We fought for America's freedom In far away places on foreign land. Wherever the battle for democracy raged, America's finest made a stand. We fought for your future And the right to remain free. For we saw what freedom meant To those not blessed with Liberty. For you and yours We would gladly have given our life. We faced the fears and perils of battle We braved endless turmoil and strife. Please remember us veterans And the sacrifices we made for you. Please share the blessing of freedom. Proudly wave the red, white and blue. Lynne Cary, 2004 Today we shall mourn. But tomorrow We Will Take Care of Business! |
