The wall of Maj. Brent Taylor’s quarters in northern Iraq looked much like his living space when serving a mission to Brazil,
reports. He decorated both with photos of his family, cutouts from religious magazines, and inspirational quotes.
“My choice of decorations was very different from my men,” he once wrote, describing himself as “a straight-leg Mormon and not ashamed of it.”
In keeping with that statement, he often struggled to sleep after hearing some of the tales his comrades exchanged.
“My ears were burning,” he wrote. “Profanities and dirty language are as routine in the military as food and water.”
He fast-walks through rolling, dun-colored foothills below a solitary ridgeline east of Kabul. Body armor hugs his chest. A heavy ruck jostles against his back, straps chafing his shoulders. At 39, he’s in the best shape of his life, 200 pounds and a sinewy 6-foot-4 counting his wavy, salt-and-pepper hair. The air is sour with burnt refuse and sweat, but Maj. Brent Taylor keeps flashing a toothsome politician’s grin.
Behind him, about 40 Afghan commandos kick up dust. Like every Saturday, they’ve volunteered for this ruck march, a 2.5-mile trot in full kit, with M4s in hand. Brent leads, as usual. He veers off the road, winding over a hill, past some water tanks. His Guardian Angel a 19-year-old bodyguard fresh out of basic and his interpreter stay close, but Brent is among friends. Guys tell stories, lean in for selfies and play American music for each other on their phones. Down the hill, a few Afghans take tea at a tiny table beside the path.
Good Monday morning, Utah!

Curtis says Cheney is right that the 2020 election was legitimate, but he may support her ouster anyway
Rep. John Curtis agrees with Rep. Liz Cheney.
He agrees the presidential election was legitimate, and Republicans should resist those who tell lies about it, including former President Donald Trump.
But that doesn’t mean he won’t vote to remove Cheney for her leadership position within the House Republican caucus.
