      REQUEST FROM THE PUBLISHER 19

      Abstract

      Douglas Cubbison, the Command Historian for the 10th Mountain Division, conducted a series of interviews with the soldiers of the 10th Mountain Division in Afghanistan during January 2007, along with several additional interviews conducted in February 2007 at Fort Drum, New York. The interviews are fairly wide ranging in the topics covered but all center around one  particularly memorable event for the soldier being interviewed, such as an ambush, a patrol, a  firefight, a helicopter crash, or a hero ceremony. This transcript is from the interview with Staff  Sergeant Cunningham conducted on 24 January 2007. The other interviews conducted by  Cubbison can be found at the transcripts for Brigadier General James Terry, First Lieutenant  Justin L. Sax, First Lieutenant Jorgensen, Sergeant First Class Connors, Sergeant First Class Eban  Duer III, Sergeant First Class Hunsacker, Staff Sergeant John Bickford, Staff Sergeant Anthony  Nilon, Sergeant Jemon Calhoun, Specialist Joe Mattie, and Specialist Edward J. Vasquez.
