War Stories with Preston and Sayre
Society & Culture
Today we talk about the second episode of Generation Kill (The Cradle of Civilization). We talk about the challenges of walking the line between scaring your men and holding on a healthy amount of fear, the challenge of identifying fighters on this new battlefield and the crazy high that comes after a firefight.
Sayre was a Ranger-qualified Infantry Officer and served as a platoon leader for the entirety of a twelve month deployment to Zhari District, Afghanistan with the 101st Airborne Division’s 2nd Battalion, 502nd Infantry Regiment during the troop surge of 2010-2011.
