Controversial Special Operations Afghanistan Montage
Published 3 years ago
An epic Special Operations montage from Afghanistan that produced quite a bit of controversy, set to the tune of Kendrick Lamar's 'Be Humble'.
This video, when released, caused quite the bit of controversy amongst individuals not in the know. Twenty seconds into this video, an ODA team member can be seen conducting a drive-by shooting of a truck driver, and that small clip got the ODA team into a lot trouble, for a short period of time.
An investigation into the incident was conducted, and it was determined that the Special Operations team member in question was using beanbag rounds, and that the driver of the vehicle was not seriously injured. The beanbag rounds were deployed to stop the driver, who was attempting to cut into the Special Operations team's mounted patrol.
For those of you not in the loop, when a civilian vehicle enters the inner-ranks of a military convoy in a place like Iraq or Afghanistan, it becomes an immediate hostile threat as it could be a car bomb. This successful attempt to get the driver to stop his vehicle and pull it off to the side most likely saved his life.
The rest of the video just shows an ODA team doing what an ODA team does best. Kicking ass and taking names.
