175: Joshua Mooi - US Marine during Operation Steel Curtain
Sayre Payne and Preston Stewart are joined today by Joshu Mooi. Josh joined the Marines after high school and before long found himself in one of the deadliest areas of Iraq, Anbar Province. Josh talks about working his way through boot camp, showing up to a unit that was on track to deploy and arriving in country a little under-equipped. During the months Josh and his unit were in Iraq, they played a major role in combating the al-Qaeda threat that was encroaching on Baghdad through the Euphrates River Valley during Operation Steel Curtain.
Josh has done a great job of documenting his time in Iraq on his Instagram page. Worth checking out!
