Episode notes
Medal Of Honor: Robert Modrzejewski
- Robert Joseph Modrzejewski led Company K through repeated, overwhelming attacks during Operation Hastings in July 1966.
- Despite wounds and dwindling ammo, he crawled 200 meters to resupply troops and directed close artillery and air strikes to hold their position.
Terrain Masks Enemy Strength
- Dense jungle and mountainous terrain hide enemy numbers and materiel, making accurate troop estimates nearly impossible.
- That concealment repeatedly led U.S. units to land outnumbered and be surprised by much larger enemy forces.
Avoid Phone-Trap Conversations
- If someone repeatedly lures you into long, unimportant phone calls, refuse further traps and set a clear limit.
- Prefer short calls, in-person meetings, or texts to avoid being monopolized on the phone.
