About the Program
Mitch Weiss and Kevin Maurer talk about "Operation Commando Wrath," conducted by U.S. Special Forces soldiers in Afghanistan in 2008. The soldiers felt the operation was flawed but undertook it anyway, resulting in one of the larger battles of the war so far. Ten soldiers in the unit received Silver Stars for their conduct in the battle (the most ever awarded to a unit since Vietnam). Hosted by Union County Library in Monroe, North Carolina.
