Chris Covington's Story of the Explosion at the Schoolhouse

Chris Covington was Rob Zurhide's best friend. He got his bell run when an RPG flew through a window and into a room at the schoolhouse where he was positioned on April 12th. Chris lives with his family in Tijuana these days. We wanted to tell him what we were learning. The shame, this remorse over something you did in the chaos of combat. In military circles, they talk about it as a moral injury. There's no prosthetic to replace the piece of you that was lost.
