August 2019 update from Funker: If you would like to ask me any questions, or join our veteran community on Twitch, I stream live Mon-Fri at https://twitch.tv/Funker. You’ll find that most people in chat are veterans, and it’s a chill place to hang out for a few hours each day if you feel like connecting with other vets. You can also join our discord at https://discord.gg/8fpqjg
I have made the decision to re-activate this channel, despite the threats and risk of having YouTube shut us down completely. Major media platforms are have gone too far when it comes to censoring voices outside of the mainstream media, and I have decided to continue reporting on ongoing global events through this outlet. We are now taking video submissions from veterans who would like to share their stories with the world. Email Funker530 (at) gmail.com.

Paktika Province, Afghanistan – After spotting Taliban forces on a distant ridge line, U.S. Army mortar teams engage with 60mm mortars. A simultaneous airstrike is called in which accidentally drops a 500 pound bomb on a U.S. Army infantry outpost, mistaking the position for Taliban fighters.
Luckily there were no friendly casualties in this rare incident, due to the First Sergeant’s decision to bring everyone to “stand to” before the drop. It is still unclear what caused the pilot to target the wrong position.
“If it wasn’t for the decision of our First Sergeant, three of our guys would have died in that wooden building which was shredded by shrapnel.”
