Copyright Dispute - Michael Yon Vs. The Army

Posted By Blackfive

Yon wins.

He left a voicemail yesterday thanking us for our help in getting the Army to stop publishing his photos without permission.

Mike is a class act, through and through.

If you are new to military blogs, you should start here with Michael's most read dispatches from Mosul, Iraq.  While Gates of Fire is everyone's favorite (rightly so), I also really like this one - Operation Iraqi Children: A Bright Shining Hope - about some heroes that won't make the nightly news.


Mission: To protect and promote the reputation and dignity of America's Warriors.

  • Uber Pig
    AuthorLogo-pig.jpg
    Uber Pig was an Infantryman from late 1991 until early 1996, serving with Second Ranger Battalion, I Corps, and then 25th Infantry Division. At the time, the Army discriminated against enlisted soldiers who wanted use the "Green to Gold" program to become officers, so he left to attend Stanford University. There, he became expert in detecting, avoiding, and surviving L-shaped ambushes, before dropping out to be as entrepreneurial as he could be. He is now the founder of a software startup serving the insurance and construction industries, and splits time between Lake Tahoe, Boonville, and San Francisco, CA.

    Uber Pig writes for Blackfive a) because he's the proud brother of an enlisted Civil Affairs Reservist who currently serves in Iraq, b) because he looks unkindly on people who make it harder for the military in general, and for his brother in particular, to succeed at their missions and come home in victory, and c) because the Blackfive readers and commenters help keep him sane.
