Marcus Luttrell, hero Navy SEAL, was the lone survivor of a Special Forces operation that took place on June 28th, 2005 in Afghanistan’s Kunar province. The mission was to kill or capture Ahmad Shah, a high-ranking Taliban official responsible for numerous killings in the region. Marcus Luttrell and three of his SEAL team members were ambushed by 150 Taliban fighters, with Luttrell being the only survivor.
A failed attempt by Special Forces helicopters to recover Marcus Luttrell led to the death of 16 more Special Forces soldiers, the largest one-day loss in Navy SEAL history.
Marcus, severly wounded, CRAWLED for seven miles through the mountains of Afghanistan, and was hidden from the Taliban by locals, who sent word to the army of his location.
He wrote the bestselling book “Lone Survivor."
Marcus has had many surgeries dealing with the wounds he suffered. He had returned home after yet another surgery shortly before this horrific shooting of Dasy took place.
"Dasy" is an acronym consisting of the first initial of the names of his fallen comrads. He was given the beautiful lab when he returned from Afghanistan as a therapy dog. As he puts it, she was like a daughter to him.
Since this video, a second dog murderer has surrendered. They need to be punished to the full extent of the law.
