In this gripping episode, Murph talks with Ken Kraus, a former Marine and combat veteran, who survived one of the most harrowing international incidents in U.S. history. On February 14, 1979, Ken and his fellow Marines stood their ground as a violent mob stormed the U.S. Embassy in Tehran, initiating a life-or-death standoff that tested their training, brotherhood, and will to survive.

Ken recounts the chaos, courage, and split-second decisions made under extreme pressure. From the moment the attack began to the brutal aftermath, this is a firsthand account of military heroism, sacrifice, and survival behind enemy lines. The episode also touches on mental health, the emotional toll of combat, and how veterans like Ken process trauma years after their service.
