Watch preview video above. The new episode recounts the headline-making events during the Iraq war which unfolded when Thomas Hamill, as civilian truck driver for the U.S. military was in a convoy attacked by Iraqi insurgents who took him hostage. It led to weeks of danger and uncertainty during which he could have been killed. The episode reveals how he managed to survive and how he was able to return home.
He later wrote a book about the ordeal, “Escape in Iraq-The Thomas Hamill Story” and sat for a number of interviews upon its publishing, one of which you can see here.
