At almost the very last part of the video, I made a 1 frame mistake in Lake Urmia, and I am not changing it because I am not as braindead to even bother when I am already dying inside. Thanks for watching!

Very small textbox mistake: At the end of the video we see Multinational Forces — Iraq transition into United States Forces — West. This is wrong as USF — West as the name implies means that it is just a division of United States Forces — Iraq. I got confused due to Wikipedia's errors, which therefore became my error. I believe someone fixed this mistake later.

WARNING: I will cut aside my professional manner of speaking. Let's have a father-to-son conversation. HurricaneHunter03 and Soulchester's videos regarding this topic will give you cancer. Do not watch those videos. There are one billion reasons why, but the best way is to compare the research of this video to theirs. Theirs is almost 100% fiction.
