Hermes Mejia

Between 2010 and 2011 I lived through and witnessed the atrocities and abuse of power by people who are entrusted with the safety of soldiers and civilians down range. I grew to know and respect the people of Iraq and am ashamed of the way they have been mistreated by our American Military. I lost 9 close friends who died for a pointless war. This war is a big mistake and needs to be ended now before more lives are lost.
