One year ago, the USA pulled out of Afghanistan. Maj. Fred Galvin was part of a unit deployed to the country during the two decades of conflict, where his unit was ambushed in 2007.

His book, "A Few Bad Men: The True Story of U. S. Marines Ambushed in Afghanistan and Betrayed in America," details the events before and after.

We must go direct with farmers who use the kind of methods we want for our dinner. Even if we ban glyphosate, there are plenty of worse (yes, hard to believe!) chemicals waiting to take its place. There is no way out ...
