In this powerful episode, we're joined by award-winning journalist and author Gregg Zoroya to discuss his gripping new book, Unremitting: The Marine "Bastard" Battalion and the Savage Battle That Marked the True Start of America's War in Iraq. This is the untold story of 2nd Battalion, 4th Marines, known as the "Magnificent Bastards," and the brutal, underrecognized battle they fought in Ramadi in April 2004. While Fallujah would come to dominate headlines, it was in Ramadi—just days earlier—that the insurgency launched its full fury.    DON'T FORGET TO SUBSCRIBE AND LEAVE A RATING OR A REVIEW!
