What a loss. Killer Elite was one of my favorite modern pieces of war reporting. Wright didn't let the hilariously dystopic "embedded" rules muzzle him or intimidate him - no, he went to play bullet dodger with Marine Recon. A lot of other press, the embedding worked like it was supposed to and kept them well to the rear.
His true crime is a similar round of WTFs, like when you learn about weird CIA crap for the first time, but over and over again.
Mental note to watch the TV series - that somehow passed me by.
