Mikael Cook's 'Life and Death at Abbey Gate' - The Afghanistan Project Podcast Ep. 108
Description
Welcome to Episode 108 of The Afghanistan Project, where we cover all topics related to two decades of war in Afghanistan, and the fallout of our Afghanistan withdrawal.
Today, my guest is Army veteran Mikael Cook, my formerco-host and the author of Life and Death at Abbey Gate.
Mikael and I finally tell the story of how this podcast cameto be – which includes some embarrassing tears (mine), and the desire to counteract hatred and misunderstanding in the general population.
We talk about how Mikael began fighting to help his formerinterpreters escape Hamid Karzai International Airport, and how the effort morphed into involvement with two other evacuations
