“Only the Dead” Documentary
Posted: Thu Aug 12, 2021 9:41 pm
I noticed in the preview trailer, one of the guys talking at about 2:00 mins in is Medal of Honor recipient Sgt. David Bellavia, who earnd his medal in Fallujah.
Any words I can string together about what this guy did would be an understatement. Basically, he was alone in a house after his squad pulled back after being ambushed, he stayed and engaged no less than 5 enemy fighters, some in hand to hand combat, killing all of them.
What’s also interesting is at the time of the fighting in Fallujah, a journalist was imbedded with Sgt. Bellavia’s squad named Michael Ware. He went on to make an *amazing* but very graphic documentary about his time as a war correspondent in Iraq titled “Only the Dead”.
It’s pretty hard to find as it’s practically a snuff film, but I saved it to my google drive using 100% legal not sketchy video downloading from the internet services. If anyone is interested, I’d be happy to send it to you if you wanna shoot me a PM.
