What is the SCID? Fighting terrorism in Iraq.

During the Iraq War, a little known detachment played a big role in fighting terrorist actions and saving lives of our service members in Baghdad and other locations in Iraq. The Strategic Counter Intelligence Directorate (SCID) made up of Army CI, NCIS and Air Force OSI agents and a group of patriotic Army National Guard and DOD contractors diligently fought a secret war against insurgency and saved lives and provided crucial intelligence identifying our enemies (Jaish Al Mahdi, Al Qaeda and others) operating in the theater of operations. Ultimately, the downfall of this highly successful operation would come from within our own government through politics and bureaucracy. Former Army Major Dave Pounder joins me to discuss our time with the SCID and the "good times" in Baghdad.
