East Baghdad with Maj. Danny Sjursen

Maj. Danny Sjursen (ret.) shares his experience as a young 1st Lieutenant in the Shia-majority East Baghdad in 2007 – a very dangerous time, with upwards of 100 U.S soldiers being killed each month. Danny reflects on the loss of soldiers under his command by a deadly improvised explosive device and the political conditions that led to it all.

Danny Sjursen is a retired US Army strategist and former history instructor at West Point. He served tours with reconnaissance units in Iraq and Afghanistan. He has written a memoir and critical analysis of the Iraq War, Ghostriders of Baghdad: Soldiers, Civilians, and the Myth of the Surge.
