SAN JOSE, Calif. — Alone in a foxhole in Afghanistan, Lance Cpl. Harry Lew wrote a message on his arm to his mom: “May hate me now, but in the long run this was the right choice.” Then he leaned over his military-issued machine gun, put his mouth over the muzzle and pulled the trigger.
A new U.S. military report revealed why he did it: He had been mercilessly hazed by his fellow Marines.
