    If you have a bit of time

    Guys and ladies,
    If you have a bit of time. This is an interview about the battle of wanat. If you are unfamiliar with it...It was a battle that eventually led to the death of 9 paratroopers. The man talking, SSG Ryan Pitts, was my boss. I was hurt a few weeks before the fight and still had an "open" laceration in which I could not go. God bless my brothers and the officers that are under fire for this incident.

    Important discussion Monday night w/ Uncle Jimbo and Tankerbabe about "Wanat"

    God does things for a reason. He chose for you not to go. Prayers sent for all those involved.

      It's not really about me at all. Our CO and our BN Commander are both getting letters of reprimand for this incident. Just seems a bit harsh.

          It's a bit long joey. Theres a little sound box on the right hand side of the page when u open it. Also I think like the first three mins of the clip is music. But these are guys that survived the attack. Tough as nails kinda fellas.
