U.S. Marine Officer Discusses 'A Few Bad Men' on Point of the Spear

ALPHARETTA, Ga. - July 20, 2022 - PRLog -- This week and the following week, the military history podcast Point of the Spear with Robert Child features a powerful two-part interview with retired U.S. Marine Major Fred Galvin on July 20th and 27th. Maj. Galvin discusses his book, A Few Bad Men: The True Story of U.S. Marines Ambushed in Afghanistan Betrayed in America.

Maj. Galvin's book is about the wrongly accused men in his special operations unit, including himself, who became known as the MARSOC Seven. They were all charged with homicide and faced life imprisonment.

Fox Company Marines (MSOC F) were accused of indiscriminately killing Afghan civilians in March of 2007, and that narrative was spread throughout the media as a result of a rush to judgment by several military leaders who were directly responsible for the expulsion of Fox Company from Afghanistan. This rush to judgment occurred without sufficient evidence, as later proven during the Court of Inquiry.

Child stated, "This is one of the most powerful episodes we've done on the podcast because Fred Galvin is so candid about the incident and how clear he is on the innocence of his men. The conversation was so compelling we had to make it a two-part episode."

Point of the Spear is available on all the major podcast platforms, including Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Goggle Podcasts, and several other outlets. Find out more at and listen to Part one at https://www.podpage.com/point-of-the-spear-with-robert-ch...
