A conversation with Dexter Kamilewicz [pronounced Kammel-lev-ich] , a Maine father who's son is bravely speaking out about the conditions he and the other troops are really facing in Iraq.
Ben Kamilewicz is a world-class biathlete who hoped to be on the US team at the 2006 Olympics. When he was recruited by the Vermont National Guard to be on their biathalon team, pre-9/11 he never thought he'd find himself a few years later, poorly trained and badly equipped fighting a war in Iraq. But since he was sent there in July he and his family, who live in Orr's Island, Maine, have been doing everything they can to call attention to what's really happneing in Iraq. We spoke earlier today with his father Dexter Kamilewicz.
