In my first book, “Lions of Marjah”, I talk about several situations that took place in the country. Specifically, I wrote about a day when we were in a pretty good gunfight. There were fighters squirting out of the forward edge of the battle area and this was observed by my squad and the remaining Marine co-located at the same Patrol Base. During the Fight, an enemy mortarman squirted out of the battle and headed east away from the fight on a motorbike. He had his mortar system in tow. Instantly our 60mm mortar team, headed by Kyle Mihalecz, went into action. They prepared the rounds for airburst, calculated the flight time, and used another one of our weapons guys inside the courtyard as an aiming stake. They let the round fly and gave us a 3-second countdown to the splash. Like clockwork, the round splashed, and the enemy fighter disappeared in the mortar impact. It was a direct hit and the surgical accuracy of the shot meant we didn’t need to conduct a battle damage assessment BDA. Kyle later became a Scout Sniper and deployed again.  In this conversation, we cover his life, career, and subsequent initiatives. Please enjoy this episode.
