If you heard last week's episode, then you know something of the story of the Iraqi photographer,

Kamon Najim, who went missing on a battlefield and the efforts to find him.

This is part two of that story.

So if you didn't yet hear part one, we would highly recommend you go back and listen to

that first episode to get the full experience, and it is an experience.

But if you only listen to this episode, don't worry, we will catch you up along the way.

Just a quick warning before we get started, there is the sound of gunfire and some cursing

in this episode.

When Kamon went missing, one of the people most desperate to find him was a 27-year-old

woman from Holland.

So my name is Shontina von Herbina.

Yantina had met Kamon in 2009, and the first thing she'd noticed about him was his laugh.

Yes.

Happy times.

It was a laugh that made you feel safe, which she knows sounds weird, but that's just

how it felt.

They started talking at a conference, and when she told them that she was making a work

trip to Baghdad, he said, oh, maybe I'll be there.

And he was.

We spent a week together in Baghdad, and he showed me everything there.

And whenever something happens in Baghdad, like a bombing, I would be really scared and

react to it, even when it was far away.
