"...As we were headed towards the airport, a large convoy of military personnel in armored vehicles were entering the city. I looked out the side window to my left, looked out to my right, where my wife was sitting, and I said, 'this doesn't look good.'"
Dustin Watson and his wife escaped Myanmar on February 20, 2021, the same day that security forces opened fire on innocent people protesting the month-old military coup. His story kicks off a new season for the Surviving podcast.
