Summary |
Into The Fog Of War Part Two - EXCLUSIVE<br /><br />This week we continue our compelling two-part program giving a powerful insight into one of the most controversial cases in Australian military history.<br /><br />At the centre of the story is Dave, a highly skilled commando in the Army Reserve.<br />In February 2009, whilst on a capture-or-kill mission looking for Taliban, his unit raided a family compound in the middle of the night in Afghanistan. Six people, including five children, were killed.<br /><br />For the first time, Dave and other members of the unit give their account of the night and its aftermath.<br /><br />Dave and another soldier were subsequently charged with manslaughter of the five children and faced the possibility of a court martial and 20 years in prison. These charges were later dismissed.<br /><br />Since then, details of the operation have been shrouded in secrecy.<br /><br />What happened has been a tragedy for everyone - for Dave, his fellow commandos and, most of all, for the Afghan families who lost so much |
