why was ambassador chris stevens in such a dangerous place? the report says he was filling a temporary staff gap and spearheading an effort to make benghazi a permanent diplomatic post, witnesses told the committee ambassador stevens was laying the ground work for a visit by secretary clinton to benghazi the following month. a major focus of the report is the military's failure to carry out orders from defense secretary leon panetta to deploy forces to benghazi. a force did not get to tripoli until the next afternoon, partly because of previously reported failure to have airports ready. but also because of conflicting orders from state department and pentagon officials over whether marines should wear military uniforms or civilian attire because of diplomatic sensitives with the libyans. one commander said while waiting on a plane for three hours he and marines changed in and out of their uniforms four times, the republican report comes the day after benghazi committee democrats issued their own report with a sharply different view. democrats
