Episode 44 - The Lion of Kandahar, Part 1

The Panjwai Podcast

Almost every Panjwai veteran has read, or heard of the book Lions of Kandahar. We read it before and during our deployment, and the story of Major Rusty Bradley and the seizure of Sperwan Ghar in 2006 is one the best told modern adventure stories set in the Global War on Terror. This week, Major Bradley joins us for the first part of a two part interview about that operation, starting with Rusty’s origins as an SF officer, his previous experiences in Panjwai, and the lead up to Operation Medusa.

Join us next week for the conclusion to the interview
