I thought the Utah National Guard did well for itself by admitting they had made a mistake and taking full responsibility for the Herriman/Machine Gun Fire incident. Maj. Gen. Brian Tarbet said it was the Guard's mistake to shoot under the existing weather conditions.
Its refreshing in a way to see a public/government/military organization take responsibility so quickly. I've found that more damage to credibility, trust, and reputation tends to be done in the cover-up and spin of explanation than just flat out admitting the truth right away.
So for such an awful event it's nice to see the Guard own up to it's mistake.
