And that's solidifying the fact that I was so integrated into that platoon.
I've never left that platoon.
I've never left that company, that team.
They trusted me and I trusted them and they knew what I was capable of.
And they're like, well, come up and have a little trial, like see if your equipment works on the rooftops of Mosul.
Like, yep, fucking where do you want me?
And I got very fortunate, like got put on a private little plane and flown up to Erbil.
And then from Erbil, the boys were already there in Mosul and they're attached to the SEALs.
So SEAL team seven, I believe, was there in Mosul already.
And Hemo and the boys, like a few of the Bravo company boys were there too.
in the outskirts of Mosul with the SEALs getting ready for the clearance.
The initial push was about to happen on their, what we refer to as the eastern side of Mosul.
But the ISIS boys, they refer to their cardinal points are flipped to ours because they think of the world looking from Mecca.
So it's confusing as fuck.
And my interpreter's like, they're starting to come on the west bank of Mosul.
It's like,
Yeah.
They're looking for Mecca.
So you've got to flip it around.
So sometimes things got wrong and I'm like whipping my turd like, you fucking idiot.
