HoogkinBan Salon Ep.18 - Drop Bodies, Not Packets

In this episode I talk about my responses to people that have been throwing around the, "So... Afghanistan, huh?". I compare the differences in Japan and Germany becoming democratic after losing wars and Afghanistan after outlasting the Brits, the Soviets, and now US. What American patriotism looked like when I was a kid and my dad left to fight in the Gulf War and Operation Iraqi Freedom as a Marine aviator. I reference a Breaking Points interview with Lucas Kunce, a former Marine officer that discusses some of the lies and disingenuous aspects about U.S. operations in Afghanistan. I also talk about some of my buddy's combat experiences in Afghanistan and some of my experiences on a Joint Special Operations Task Force.
