My Story BATTLE OF NAJAF - Brent0331 PART II - Choices Not Chances

Originally aired on the ‪‪@choicesnotchancespodcast‬ Episode 76, on 6/11/2024.
This past May I sat down with the Choices not Chances Podcast to talk about my Marine Corps Career. This is part II of a two part episode. In this episode I will recall my experience fighting in the Battle of Najaf in the Najaf cemetery in Iraq in 2004. I'll then go into my deployment to Afghanistan in 2010/2011 and the rest of my Marine Corps career up to today.

Hello sir, I am from Iraq Iraq is now safe, stable, and developed, and life is much better than before. Do you remember the golden dome that resembles a mosque in Najaf? It is the place where the holy person for Shiite Muslims is located. His name is Imam Ali

[@Brent0331]

Yes! I can't forget it. I'm glad to hear its peaceful now.

[@Teaamery]

@@Brent0331 I think there was nothing special in Najaf except that place which looks like a mosque unlike Babylon and Baghdad anyway I wish you happiness and goodness respect from Baghdad🇮🇶

[@Brent0331]

Thank you, you too. One day I hope to return to visit, but not yet.. I'm not ready.

[@nathanexplosion1021]

Oh shit, the Delta Force game? I'm 24 and love the Delta Force games.

[@Brent0331]

Yup, I played the original game made by NovaLogic.

[@Live01Legends]

adding pictures and video was really helpful

[@Brent0331]

Agreed, I thought the host was originally going to do it but he's more of a podcast format. I'm thankful that he gave me the green light to post this here so I could add the photos to give people a better understanding of things that were going down in our operations.

The freaking ass shot!!😂love your content Brent, shame even if I have notifications on that I don’t get notified for the vids. Appreciate the content!!!

[@Brent0331]

@@Brent0331just know your story is well appreciated, hunting season is coming up and I always enjoyed the vids deep in the field. Just waiting for a buck to come out!!!

[@Brent0331]

​@@HornetsNest121 Thanks, for me its more about telling the story of Najaf. Its the greatest story never told, completely overshadowed and few know about what happened there.

[@nathanexplosion1021]

Now I gotta watch part 1 again

[@eltenda]

Great stuff

[@Brent0331]

Thanks

[@btbrilz]

Check. Check

[@zanefischer1984]

RAH!

[@coomman-e4j]

Is that a Danish LMG or am I seeing things?

[@Brent0331]

No sure what you're referring to but anything I'm holding is U.S. made.

[@coomman-e4j]

@@Brent0331 I thought that's a Colt LMG handguard. I know the Danish and Dutch happen to use them wasn't sure if you encountered those guys. Maybe something that had inspired you to admire the AR-RPK concept.
