Powderburns is Cellie Castillo recapping his career as a soldier, police officer and DEA agent. This culminates in him figuring out that the CIA was helping the Contras smuggle Cocaine into America. He would present the evidence and of course he would be given the runaround, ignored and finally after a while his career was ruined, as well as his life was in serious danger. Castillo put his life on the line as a soldier in Vietnam and as a cop and DEA agent and this was the reward he was given. This is just another example of the United States government being caught redhanded in international dealing of dangerous life destroying hard drugs. But hey keep locking those pot smokers up in the phony drug war money making scam back in the States.

Unfortunately, this is an all too common occurrence for those who give their heart and soul to the United States. This man had the best intentions to make the world better, but was chewed up by the federal government and spit out with his marriage destroyed, no allies, no career, and extreme PTSD as a parting gift. He's a damn hero, but they made him a criminal because he didn't play by their (unequivocally corrupt) rules. It's an absolute embarrassment and shameful.
