<p>On The Radio Tuesday Night!</p>
<p>ONCE A MARINE &#8211; An Iraq War Tank Commander&#8217;s Inspirational Story of Combat, Courage, and Recovery. Nick Popaditch appeared in an AP photo on April 9, 2003. The striking image was of the Marine tank commander smoking a victory cigar in his tank, the haunting statue of Saddam Hussein hovering in the background. &#8220;Gunny Pop&#8221; was immortalized forever as &#8220;The Cigar Marine.&#8221; A year later he fought heroically in the First Battle for Fallujah and suffered head wounds that left him legally blind and partially deaf. The United States Marine Corps awarded him a Silver Star for his valor and combat innovation. Coming home, however, is when the toughest fight of his life began &#8211; a battle to remain the man and Marine he was. Join Political Pistachio Radio on Tuesday Night at 10:00 pm Eastern Time/7:00 pm Pacific for a riveting interview with Nick Popaditch, a Marine&#8217;s Marine, a man who embodies everything noble and proud in the Corps&#8217; long tradition.</p>
