A young man, who grew up...in the right way. While on his tour, he started to become a conscience objector; The military took away his armor, denied him leave, and some members of his unit harrassed and abused him.

While Aidan softened, others did not, and he reveals the harshness overcoming our once young and innocent citizens.
Iraqi's initially offered goodwill; initially the soldiers were gracious. Over time they hardened and bewildered the Iraqi citizens with harsh abusive behavior.

He speaks openly about the conditions at Abu Garib; disentary and 80 prisoners to a tent, with only trenchs for the bathroom. They were served rotten food, often subjected to food poisoning, rats, etc.

I applaud Aidan Delgado for coming out of Iraq unjaded, but more sensitive to what he was exposed to, and compassion for those The US sought to destroy.
