Summary

Part 2: On April 22, 2004, the Army’s most famous soldier was killed in Afghanistan. Pat Tillman was famously known for leaving behind a lucrative career in the NFL, playing for the Arizona Cardinals, and choosing to serve his country as an Army Ranger. Pat’s death in Afghanistan was a devastating blow to his family and to the country. But, how and why Pat died was kept the Army’s dirty little secret - until finally - the truth was revealed. Pat died by fratricide. For close to two years, Pat’s family went head to the head with the Army to get the truth.
