The son of one of the war lords in Somalia was a Corporal in the USMC reserves. I THINK he was Adid's son,but may be wrong about that last detail.

He was a Corporal (active duty) in 1st Bn, 8th Mar. and he was Adid's son. We both served together in 1/8 at the same time. He was in a different Company, and we never met, but I heard that when we got to Somalia, he was not allowed to go ashore.

I also heard he just took over as some type of head honcho in Somalia.
