Now, Ani, you're a producer for the lines led by donkey.

So you listen to a lot of our dumb military stories, both personally and from history, I should say.

Do I get therapy for it?

No.

Okay.

Well, this job does not come with benefits.

The emotional trauma is actually part of the hiring process.

And brain injuries, which you don't have yet.

So we're going to have to look at your, like, employee review packet at the end of the year and just hit you in the head with a break.

You just can't read my medical records.

But today you're going to be the guest on a dumb military story because today we're talking

about a guy that I know you've never heard of. And that is because he is one of the most

decorated United States Marines to ever live. And he's certainly the most decorated American

Armenian to ever serve in the U.S. military. And I don't know how to describe him, as we'll go on, but a strange murderous jungle cryptid of the Pacific War, Victor Machakian.

Or I will say, I'm going to put on my American hat here, which I actually am wearing.

It's a true Red Wings hat.

And say, I think I know how Americans pronounce his name. And it was Victor Maghakian. MacHakian. If I was the guest. If I was a guess. Because he is also from the Midwest. He's from Chicago. I think it should be pronounced Marakian. He pronounced Mahakian. Well, you know. I also say Kasabian.

Well, Armenian say my surname is actually Kasavian.

So, you know.

Yeah, because I mean, it's using the wrong Armenian, you know, the Western Armenian.

He is also Western Armenian.

So once again.
