the. markets. find out what's really happening to the global economy for a no holds barred look at the global financial headlines to name two cars a report on our. talk about if you just joined us you're watching and these are the week's top stories more in general a lot of calls a genocide charges against a monstrous as serbia and some over to the hague but instead of clearing a past of the easy to belgrade fines the court here is a list just got longer. the libyan intervention loses altitude as nato eager to regain the initiative rolls out having gunships knighting fears of an imminent ground war. health inspectors zoning in on

a german restaurant to hunt the source of the killer but it's little relief for struggling spain after he was initially blamed for the outbreak. as for the top stories of the week next are two reports on what it means to be a good american soldier. there was one particular incident are still the story. i wish i could take. given that. we went to an area near the baghdad stadium this kid came into our area and actually start about seventy five meters from our vehicle that kills you for the vehicle came into our perimeter. and. which is why we alluded. we

had three of the. victims in the wreck that there were expiring rapidly we pulled them out of the car and we started doing it for a state i called a corpsman the corpsman came and got the three bodies and took them back to the battalion surgeon. corpsman came back dump the bodies on the side of the road and i went over to the corpsman i asked him i said what were you doing how can you bring him back and me to get him out you need to get him back to an area where they can see a surgeon. there's nothing we can do for him so. you can leave you know you can leave the bodies on the side of the road and i said yeah we want to do steps or so i want to go and pass them up

so they dumped him on the side of the road and. and the guys brother he come running over to him and he just said they're holding them while they roll around on the on the asphalt on a highway. and rolling around in pain they didn't even give many morphine. the guy's brother he kept he kept running around and he had his hands in his and his and his face. and he's was crying and sobbing and he's saying why did you kill my brother. we didn't do anything to you we're not terrorists. remember i remember i just want to i wanted to close my years i didn't want to hear

and i just sat there and he's time that he said. it was like it was permanently being. burned into my brain. and. i lost that's the last night there are gotten a good night's sleep the night before that. i think and then on the. next morning lieutenant you walked up to me and he said sasser. are you all right you seem a little distressed

a little agitated. and i was not all right and. i'm pretty pissed off that what we're what we're doing over here. and he said i will give me your interpretation of what we're doing over here. what we're trying to accomplish over here. i just looked at a minister there well. he feel that we're committing genocide. and he didn't like my answer and he stormed off towards the. ceo's vehicle. and i knew at that point that my career was done i crossed the line and i knew i had to watch my back and grow our eyes so after that night i pretty much slept with

my not a millimeter underneath my poncho liner within easy reach. me in the door the door to us. when i first came back from vietnam and i turned sixty six i saw protesters out speaking. body want to hear it i did believe it to get away from it i put in a ten forty nine to go by a vietnam because i was what let's arm we'll wired. and i don't think it would have taken much for me to take one of the protesters out failed had i stayed here i would have ended up killing some people that i could do it legally in vietnam so i put in a ten forty nine and go back i think i would look and i justification doing what i

would do want to kill it it was only there on my second tour when i began to realize that something was wrong. when i came back to the states i wanted to washington d.c. to the white house or a caucus all the way to mexico to say that i would not grow by a vietnam. when i arrived back stateside i was ordered to report into the middle health clinic in twenty nine palms. the. psychologists looked at me and she said why don't deal with conscientious objectors and. just about last. for them so they will be as a conscientious objector that's the ultimate slap in the face you call it be

a conscience subject here i just killed thirty plus individuals for you and you called me a conscience factor. stood up and i said ma'am if you want to label me as a conscientious objector for not wanting to kill innocent civilians then i'll see you court. i went down and i hired an attorney. a man by the name of mr gary myers. and. mr mars was represented during the may lie trials and. mr myers in the marine corps came to a very discrete mutual understanding i was on it with this chart december thirty first of two thousand and three and here i am.

i came back i think that that sense of a long term planning has come. i went through a divorce some things i did recklessly probably in the back of my mind i would not have minded. but my. i went through a period when the p.c.p. cocaine on. and about it and thought it means. a long period of severe drug abuse. i finally got to the point where i had no warning and. i had no water for i had long since moved out of the house and could not come back home exactly where do you

go from here. and it was when the national guard needed someone that my and i my experience in teaching people how to fly they armed helicopters the cobras and i was asked to come in and help train some of those folks and the money was. you know fifteen twenty thousand dollars a year for part time work and it carried a retirement with even though i had and a change of heart about wars i needed the money you first come home and you immediately forget about everything and you go to mcdonald's you go to all your favorite restaurants and you do all your favorite things and you're having a great time and you know and then all sudden you wake up one day and you're like

wait a minute i'm not having a good time anymore. i'm starting to think about this i'm starting to think about that because all the newness has worn off your whole a lot i got my arm i got my legs i'm alive. but then the mind. the mind starts catching up. with everything else. i found myself going through my career prepping like i'm getting ready to go to combat. i mean i even look for suicide bombers you know anything out of the anything out of the ordinary. once you reach that level of of your senses being that high it's hard to turn it off it's like being in a cage tiger.

and. i got back in december of forty four there is nobody you can talk to you know there was nobody who had been in combat around. i can remember still seeing that glow red glow on the tip of the christ. and my god i was wrong wasn't good. one day you're killing somebody they're trying to kill you and the next day you're sitting in a bar in new york city it's it's crazy. i look so normal nobody knows it's your hand at work nobody you know if you got a you got a headache or you got a hole in your head you can't see when i wrote home that i was wounded i had been in france from the middle of august to i was. dad said to the newspaper

reporter who interviewed him he was only there for a few years that was to me the only was a at that time not now was a real rejection of who i was as a man he didn't last he didn't make it he got hit. and i think i didn't even understand it but that started a defining our relationship which spiraled downward downward downward. so you don't talk about it or. you sit on it. and see i was lucky why didn't i can't write another book somebody you know guys do that or why did no

prometheus why didn't i do this i once tried i got on a stool and. i remember you live in the y. new york city totally although i don't. put my bathroom sash iraq hung it. share and why i got down was because. my friends. i had made after the war who had been through the same thing i had and i felt if i did that to myself i would betray. the bond we had.

coochie vietnam federer for a change biting six to six party p. they call it hell's halfacre because of the american people. that have been still there tonto to island the akong snipers have done most of the damage today was no exception. i'm a sucker twenty seven and for the framed wolfhounds moved out to. the snipers opened up from such perfectly camouflaged positions the most with a carpet and want the whole day with the sea and not of the enemy the sergeant was hit in the shoulder and leg as he rolled over as it were up to his back. a medic broke from cover and rushed to his. drop to his knees to be again given

a bullet smashed into the stomach. both a sergeant and a medic. and artillery barrage was laid down to screen a squad going after the world especially his fourth world and they have crossed the deadly fifty yards without a fight and to this he was hit again this was no you were there yes it's our duty to bring back to a minimum well below. zero correct but certainly we're building up to go and i thought think obama grandson. they were where if they had to draft they would be drafted so i stopped thinking

of what i could do to protect them to keep them from. joining the military but the same reasons that the young people join not because it is the poor people out of people on the laurian of the economic scale but i want to fight these wars. even though modern america came out years later and say it we had no it was a mistake it did not take. from me. started it take the ville that i carried for killing people when i went to vietnam i was a car courts rule and i believed what i was going there was the right thing and i was a good soldier but now i'm a soldier on the other side and i think i'm just. thanks.

so much so long tom i'm just here trying to come. back. in a few more hours and i do for. people as we want you free to go to prison i mean so you're saying you're a war criminal rather i'm already in prison this is veterans for peace chapter zero nine nine western north carolina hoping that this moment registers in everyone's mind that this is one of the total cost of war.

sick food soon was a great war political war one wrote a line war was a scene can stop their clocks though we met him grim and gay and i know people who got their clocks stopped so badly they never got beyond drugs booze women suicide whatever you want to call and that happened to me and i think my clock was stopped for close to forty years before i got over it i was ashamed i was ashamed and i had been wounded i was ashamed that i had many hero. i never understood that my problems with my parents my problems with my wife my ex-wife were buried in the fact that i've gotten blown up i'd never i never understood it were pressed and totally

and then back again to go to a coffee shop and i would hear the big bands of my two hundred forty five and i would weep like a baby in public i had no idea that what i was doing i could weep right now was going back or try to fly that little boy all night pete and what happened. the fall of eighty four i was driven to go back to fly to look for more discriminant or to rent a car and file find the place where i was wounded on september seventh one hundred forty four. again suddenly. i found the bridge with a recross that had been blown when i'd been shot. i discovered to the hour at the moment where i had been wounded forty years before and i cannot explain it but that

discovery began my healing. my generation really were pressed with the war was about we didn't want to talk about it we weren't allowed to talk about it and then slowly in the one nine hundred eighty s. and one nine hundred ninety s. this whole thing of the greatest generation occurred it was wonderful you know the greatest generation what a nice thing to call it and we forgot what we had done we forgot that we had been animals for a lot. war is about one thing it's about killing you either learn to kill somebody else or you get killed or wounded yourself and that's why i've come to so low the idea of war so i think that's all it purports to. vietnam is something that's constant with me i think of it every day i still have

the flashbacks from to memorise still go to counseling for. and. it's is now worth it but what i did do this man is to find some good in that war i think vietnam made me a better person and made me love people more. made me understand that we are one one people throughout this earth this is sort of not a guilty thank you learn to live with you compartmentalize it or unite you rationalize you you know i call the excuses i mean i really don't have to make excuses even. there are things i wish i had not done. but there's no way to change social.

class. when you come to the point that you're not sure you're actually much more is not the way just so. disagreement. like a post from you can lead to a war and i. loathe luxury. good luck.
