Witness is a BBC World Service programme
of the stories of our
times told by the people who were there.
For almost five years, Brandon Bryant worked in
America’s secret drone programme bombing
targets in Afghanistan and elsewhere.
He was told that he helped to kill more than 1,600 people,
but as time went by he felt uneasy with what he was doing.
He found it hard to sleep and started dreaming in infra-red.
Brandon Bryant told Witness about his doubts and the
mission
 that convinced him it was time to stop.
