On this Memorial Day weekend FSRN brings you an exclusive documentary, "A Real Marine: No Place to Serve". Please stay with us. Philippe Louis Jean is a non-citizen Marine who was among the first battalions to roll into Iraq when the war was declared. On his return, this young Haitian-American was arrested by immigration authorities and spent 10 months in prison as the government tried to deport him to Haiti, a country he left when he was 5. He told his story to FSRN's Deepa Fernandes.
