The legacy of our fallen, question everything.
This podcast shares the trauma experienced by the Marines, Corpsmen and their families who were in Fallujah during the early days of the Iraqi conflict. Their voices, as well as the Iraqi family who lost their loved one, demonstrate the loss that remains years later. Their sacrifices are real and raw even after 20 years. The lies of their superior officers are political, self serving, and an antithesis of all the USMC prides itself on. Thank you for shedding the light on the vain and fruitless Iraqi war Bush started without stated objectives, except to remove Saddam Hussein. The chaos that vacuum created should have been anticipated and avoided. “Friendly Fire” incidents are documented for the past 100 years. That officers don’t use this incident in their training exercises is also inexcusable. As a daughter and sister of career Marines, I can only say that after Korea, Vietnam, Iraq and Afghanistan, we must demand that politicians who make decisions about going to war should be held accountable for their actions. Finishing this just before Memorial Day poignantly reminds me of the many lives lost in service to our country. Semper Fi Donna Seelyo

A problem that many may not know exists and a problem that some people think is restricted to a “lower class” of people. The truth of the matter is that addiction to pain killers (or addiction in...Read full review »
