https://www.tridentfortruth.com - Twenty years of changing stories. A documentary built on a lie. A Medal of Honor they still won’t let John Chapman keep in peace. In this second episode of the Trident for Truth Podcast, Retired Navy SEAL Eric Deming continues the examination of Roberts Ridge and the fight over John Chapman’s actions on Takur Ghar. Using Pete Blaber and Britt Slabinski’s own public statements, Deming shows the narrative shifting in real time — then rips Mitch Hall’s Ground Spoof. Chapman earned it. Slabinski didn’t. On March 4, 2002, Air Force Combat Controller John Chapman of the 24th Special Tactics Squadron was left on Takur Ghar during the battle known as Roberts Ridge. He was embedded with a SEAL Team 6 element. Evidence later showed he regained consciousness and continued to fight alone. What followed was not only a dispute over medals. It was a fight for truth and honor. This episode digs deeper into how the official story has been shaped, delayed, and diluted over two decades, and why the campaign around Chapman’s Medal of Honor remains contested. Names in this account: John Chapman. Rob Harrison. Britt Slabinski. Tim Szymanski. Vic Hyder. Pete Blaber. Mitch Hall. Watch Part 1 here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wlalBcmBHOA Watch through.
