Insight: Once when training Columbian air assault soldiers, a six-man patrol wandered off course outside the training area. Morgan was about to turn them around when they were surrounded by a larger group of FARC guerillas who demanded they surrender their food, weapons, and communications gear. As the story goes, Morgan negotiated the safe return of the team, weapons and comm gear by handing over their MRE’s and not detonating the fragmentation grenades he held, pin out, in each hand. Great story, right? 

But in true Morgan fashion it doesn’t end there. On the way out Morgan realized he’d lost one pin so, lacking any tape, he held that grenade until getting back to base. He was debriefing the patrol when a staff major from his 7th group battalion headquarters saw him and said, “You’re in a lot of trouble sergeant first class Morgan, give me the grenade.” Which Morgan did to the major’s dismay when he realized there was no pin.

The charges included assaulting an officer with a deadly weapon, insubordination, and a host of other UCMJ infractions. Embarrassed by the event and actions of the officer the group commander dropped the charges and sent Morgan back to Ft. Bragg where in a moment of serendipity he crossed paths with Wolf who he hadn’t seen since he left active duty.
