If you paid any attention to the withdrawal from Afghanistan you may have noticed that it was a catastrophe. From the handing over of Kabul airbase to the Taliban stocked full of weapons and equipment, to losing the lives of 13 service members in an attack that could have been prevented.

I personally remember thinking to myself, "If I know this is a mess-up then I know other people do as well, why is nobody of rank standing up and saying anything?" I then turned on the TV to see then Lt. Col. USMC Stuart Scheller in uniform calling out those in command for their lack of leadership and accountability.

After Scheller spoke out against those in command he later faced everything from ridicule of his superiors, his friends, later thrown in military prison, ending with the loss of his family. One man failed to compromise, failed to give in, and stood his ground for what is right.

Today I have the honor of speaking with Former LT. Col. Scheller, and this is his story.
