A lot of keyboard commandos talk about flying over to Iraq and bringing the fight to ISIS, but SOFREP writer Kurt Troter on the other hand is the real deal.  A former Marine, Kurt volunteered in fighting with the Peshmerga, and the group seems to be getting a taste of some long awaited recognition for their efforts.  Just recently, Norway lawmaker Himanshu Gulati nominated the group for a Nobel Peace Prize, which would be well deserved if they win.  We hear the latest on the Syria/Iraq region from Kurt, and him and Jack also discuss some of the funnier cultural divides they picked up on while over there.  Kurt is now a full time writer with the site, and has been pumping out some tremendous work for us.  You may also remember him from "Inside the Team Room: Peshmerga," which is available now for subscribers of SOFREP TV to check out. - http://sofreptv.us Jack Murphy also touches on some hard truth regarding the supposed trade of terrorists for Bowe Bergdahl back in 2014, which he believes to have been a disinformation campaign that not many are talking about.  You will not want to miss it.  We also check your emails sent to sofrep.radio@sofrep.com, keep 'em coming.
