Listen Later

In this emotional and powerful episode of The Scoop, part of the VET S.O.S. Network, host Kingsley “Kings” Scott talks with Sergeant Major (Ret.) Bart Womack, Bronze Star recipient and author of Embedded Enemy: The Insider Threat.

Womack relives the harrowing night of the 2003 insider attack at Camp Pennsylvania—the first deadly attack of the Iraq War—and shares how betrayal, chaos, and leadership collided under fire. His story explores the emotional aftermath, the collapse of trust, and the fight for justice and recognition that continues to this day.

This is more than a story of survival—it’s a lesson in resilience, accountability, and healing. Bart’s experiences expose the realities of command responsibility, situational awareness, and the cost of silence.

🎙️ Tune in to hear:

  • The “Five Minute Mayhem” that changed everything.

  • How leadership decisions in chaos save lives.

  • The long fight for recognition and Purple Heart justice.

  • Lessons in rebuilding trust and purpose after betrayal.

Don’t drown in the sea of transition—grab the VET S.O.S. lifeline and be inspired by those who have walked through fire and found their way forward.
