One of the U.S. Marines who was caught on video urinating on the corpses of suspected Taliban fighters has broken his silence to say that he's not sorry for what he did and he'd do it again.
"These were the same guys that were killing our family, killing our brothers," Sgt. Joseph Chamblin told ABC News affiliate WSOC in his first interview since the 2011 incident. Chamblin said he did regret any repercussions it may have had on the Marines, "but do I regret doing it? Hell no."
When asked if the act of urinating on the corpses was his form of revenge, Chamblin told WSOC, "We're human. Who wouldn't want that if you lost your brother or mother? Wouldn't you want revenge?"
Chamblin said one of his fellow Marines, Sgt. Mark Bradley, was killed in an IED explosion days before the incident.
