Detainee holding area in Iraq. I had already deployed to Afghanistan, and it was my first tour in Iraq. The job in general was already misaligned with my own moral fabric, seeing people in cages is not good for our minds. Seeing people who were with the wrong person, or in the wrong place at the wrong time, terrified of the stories they'd heard about being in American custody. So it was already a morally difficult job for me, and was changing my perspective on the war. Then I came across a father and son that were being detained. Super polite, spoke decent English, complied with everything, seemed genuinely decent. Then I learned they were captured with video proof of their multiple sniping kills of US military. Seeing that footage of fellow brothers and sisters in arms drop and others on their convoy react was really disturbing. I had a subsequent second tour in Iraq and have since gotten out. My experience changed my entire perspective on life, US involvement overseas, and politics. I love my country, but I wish things were simpler. War sucks.
