Members of Corporal Tillman's platoon knew almost
immediately he had been killed by his fellow Rangers.\49\
Moreover, within 24 hours, the top officers in Corporal
Tillman's battalion and regiment, Lieutenant Colonel Jeffrey
Bailey and Colonel Craig Nixon, also knew about the suspicions
of friendly fire and had authorized the first Army Regulation
15-6 investigation into the circumstances of his death.\50\
I am guessing it is the same one as he:
He commanded a combined U.S./Korean Battalion in the Korean DMZ, third Ranger battalion and the 75th Ranger regiment. During his career, he led multiple diverse organizations that included all services, other government agencies, contractors, and soldiers from other nations that ranged in size up to 20,000 people.
Since 9/11, Nixon has spent four years in combat including tours in Afghanistan and Iraq as the director of operations for Joint Special Operations Command and the commander of the 75th Ranger regiment. Following an assignment as the director of operations for United States Special Operations Command, he returned to Iraq as the deputy commanding general of 25th infantry division/multi-national division north, Iraq. His final military assignment was in U.S. Central Command as the deputy director of operations responsible for force protection.
---I could be wrong of course 
But that was Tillman's regiment.
