Tyler Vargas-Andrews x Shawn Ryan

Don’t stop holding their feet to the fire. Every American needs to watch this. Great testimony Tyler, thank you.

I was there for the withdrawal as a medic in the 82nd at HKIA. We were ordered to do a police call of the area even after the attack on the 26th. Paratroopers picking up trash out in the open within 200m of the Taliban and ISIS-K. Leadership during this withdrawal was horrendous and I’m still in disbelief about how it went down.

As a Marine vet, Thank you, Shawn, for exposing all the BS in failed leadership. Nothing but respect for this Marine and all the sacrifices he's made for our country. Semper Fi. Love the show, sir.

This one hurts so much. This administration has the blood of 13 service members, 1000s of afghans, and my buddy who killed himself because what he saw out there, on its hands. 45+ servicemembers wounded. My bro who was the chillest dude ever, can't sleep anymore because of what he saw here. And nobody is doing anything about it.

@JP-qh9lc
I Appreciate you covering this topic. RIP fellow Marines. Never forgotten

Going straight to the uncensored version. I'm an Afghan vet and the fact that they are censoring this is even more infuriating. Adding insult to injury. Thank you for the work you are doing Shawn

Tyler this quote was written for you over 1000 years ago... "No carelessness in your actions. No confusion in your words. No imprecision in your thoughts. No retreating into your own soul or trying to escape it." ― Marcus Aurelius



The United States withdrew the last of its troops from Afghanistan in August of 2021, signaling the end of a nearly 20 year conflict that cost 8 trillion dollars and the lives of 900,000 people, including over 7,000 U.S. Service Members. The U.S. exit from Afghanistan resulted in the Taliban reestablishing armed control of the country and created a refugee crisis as over 1.5 Million Afghans fled. The withdrawal has been widely considered a disaster and a gross display of incompetent leadership from the President down, echoing similar failures seen at Saigon nearly half a century earlier.

SRS is honored to present the story and view point from one of the Marines on the ground in Kabul, just days before the last U.S. Embassy fell. On August 26th, Tyler Vargas-Andrews was gravely wounded by a suicide bombing at the gates of Kabul's Airport, ultimately losing two limbs as a result of his injuries. This premeditated attack killed 60 Afghans and 13 U.S. Service Members.
