Pundit Review Radio

Platoon 7 of Charlie Company of the 1st Battalion of the Royal Canadian Regiment The Canadians called in strike after strike on the Taliban positions. The battle raged for 3 and a half hours before the Canadians departed for their stronghold. Charlie Company lost four soldiers that day. Nine others were wounded. The Taliban suffered many casualties, some estimates are that there were 200 killed, 80 captured and 180 fled the region. On September 8th, over 2,000 people attended the memorial service for Warrant Officers Rick Nolan and Frank Mellish, Sergeant Shane Stachnik, and Privates William Cushey and Mark Graham. Graham was killed in a friendly fire incident on the 4th. All were eulogized by their fellow soldiers and friends. Perhaps the words of Sergeant Mike McNeil apply to all as he spoke directly to the sons of Frank Mellish, “Matthew and Colvin, be proud of your dad’s name. Hold your head up high because he was a real hero. We are all proud of him.” What is Pundit Review Radio? Pundit Review Radi
