YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

Jimmy Watson rips open the ugly truth about contractors vs. mercenaries — naming Blackwater, diplomatic missions, and the GS-13 vets sent out to “get coffee.” This clip calls out the cost: former Marines and Rangers risking everything for routine work, and the system that treats them like expendable armor.
