Pat Tillman: Life. Death. Legacy.

Twenty years after Tillman died from friendly fire in Afghanistan, E60 presents new reporting and interviews that shed light on the captivating story of one of the most famous soldiers in U.S. history, whose decision to turn down a multimillion-dollar football contract and enlist in the military drew major national news coverage during the War on Terror. 

In an interview with Schaap, Tillman's mother, Mary "Dannie" Tillman, discusses her long quest for answers and how she feels today about the platoon and commanders. She also describes what she suspected and ultimately concluded.

In an E60 exclusive, former Secretary of the Army Pete Geren, speaking publicly on the subject for the first time in more than 15 years, addresses the failures of the military in the aftermath of Tillman's death.

Viewers also hear from Eric Godec, Steven Elliott, Don Lee and Bryan O'Neal, who were with Tillman's platoon when he died and who discuss the trauma and shame they've endured in the years since as well as how they've tried to move forward.
