PEACHLAND, B.C. — Talking to Luke Sommer is a bit like enduring a commando raid.
The former Army Ranger talks fast, flits between subjects and occasionally blurs reality.
Securing the truth during such an onslaught is a tough task.
This much is certain: Sommer is living in the basement of his mother's home in this snow-covered corner of British Columbia while under house arrest. According to a U.S. grand jury, Sommer, while stationed at Fort Lewis, persuaded five friends — including three fellow Rangers — to rob a Tacoma bank in August.
============================================================
He is seeking Political Asylum in Canada, Claiming he robbed the bank to get notority so he could expose war crimes committed by American Forces.
