This week The Panjwai Podcast returns with full episode once more with the start of Season 3.
We are joined this week by 1SG Ronnie Morgan. 1SG Morgan served as an infantry squad leader in Bravo Company, 1-64th Armor Battalion at COP Sperwan Ghar and the Panjwai District Center in 2012. 1SG Morgan talks to us about his experiences before Panjwai, to include rotations in the Kunar, Uruzgan and Iraq before diving into the unique experience of the Panjwai 2012 Deployment.
In Part One, we dive into 1SG Morgan’s history, his journey to Panjwai and Sperwan Ghar, and his fight to get into the fight at Sperwan Ghar while assigned to the Panjwai District Center. He talks about the strain of seeing his platoon mates in 3rd Platoon killed and wounded while he sat at the District Center, yearning to return to his Platoon and take the fight to the enemy.
Stay tuned for Part 2, where Morgan returns to his men and learns the harsh reality of warfare in the grape fields of Panjwai.

CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist
It’s 1996 in rural North Carolina, and an oddball crew makes history when they pull off America’s third largest cash heist. But it’s all downhill from there. Join host Johnny Knoxville as he unspools a wild and woolly tale about a group of regular ‘ol folks who risked it all for a chance at a better life. CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist answers the question: what would you do with 17.3 million dollars? The answer includes diamond rings, mansions, velvet Elvis paintings, plus a run for the border, murder-for-hire-plots, and FBI busts.
