IAFCI Presents... The Protectors

I enjoy this podcast! I became aware of it during an AARP Perfect Scam podcast. Listening to both podcasts about scams helps me be more vigilant and provide family and friends with important information. These stories are gut-wrenching, however, they end with hope, healing and growth. I’ve had my share of crime and empathize with the victims. Thank you for hosting this podcast! Best wishes.

Now I know what to look for when it comes to Fraud! Thanks guys!

I take some issues with some of the things brought up in this episode. What the guest talks about is half truths, and does a disservice to those of us who were actually there. First off, no we did NOT allow the Taliban bachi bachi boys on to our bases. Any Afghans who crossed the line, whether they were interpreters or workers were immediately escorted off base. As far as the equipment, yeah it was less costly to sell and turn things over to local ANA partners. Yes, there was a lot that was wrong over there, however a majority of us over there were doing the right thing. As in Iraq, the equipment was just not handed over all at once. We there there for 20 years (give or take the times outside of the general mobilization), yes weapons and equipment was handed over- but over a period of time unlike what the news reports. Slightly disappointed in this episode.

Love it, Missy’s dad is the best.
