      <itunes:summary>Jason Belford spent 20 years in the U.S. Army, and he gave nearly 17 years to the war in Afghanistan as an infantryman, sniper, platoon sergeant and Army Ranger. He went on 12 deployments to the country and to Iraq as a member of 3rd Battalion, 75th Ranger Regiment and the 10th Mountain Divisions. 

Jason has been not only a guest on this podcast multiple times, but he has also been a cohost on this show, having helped cohost shows for about a year many years ago. He and Robert have stayed in touch, but recently bumped into one another at the airport in Pittsburgh. They hugged and talked. They instantly knew that another episode was needed.

While cohosting years back, Jason had openly talked about how he attempted to take his own life and had hoped that it would help others. He shared the story of how his friend Dave helped him during that time of need. 

Years later, in 2022, the world was crumbling around him. A number of different events created the perfect storm. Dark clouds. Robert was checking up on him and he was told that Jason was going to be out of the net for a while. He was going to get some help. Jason shares on this episode the events that led up to that moment and what he did after to receive help. He shares his spiritual journey and his story will leave you speechless.

We couldn't be more happier to see Jason back in studio with us at Mentors4mil. He's been an inspiration for so many while he was in uniform and since he's left service. He continues to deal with his demons daily. He has accepted the fact that it will take daily work to fight what he calls "the war inside me". 

Jason's book, 'The War Inside Me' will be out soon.

      <description>Jason Belford spent 20 years in the U.S. Army, and he gave nearly 17 years to the war in Afghanistan as an infantryman, sniper, platoon sergeant and Army Ranger. He went on 12 deployments to the country and to Iraq as a member of 3rd Battalion, 75th Ranger Regiment and the 10th Mountain Divisions. 

Jason has been not only a guest on this podcast multiple times, but he has also been a cohost on this show, having helped cohost shows for about a year many years ago. He and Robert have stayed in touch, but recently bumped into one another at the airport in Pittsburgh. They hugged and talked. They instantly knew that another episode was needed.

While cohosting years back, Jason had openly talked about how he attempted to take his own life and had hoped that it would help others. He shared the story of how his friend Dave helped him during that time of need. 

Years later, in 2022, the world was crumbling around him. A number of different events created the perfect storm. Dark clouds. Robert was checking up on him and he was told that Jason was going to be out of the net for a while. He was going to get some help. Jason shares on this episode the events that led up to that moment and what he did after to receive help. He shares his spiritual journey and his story will leave you speechless.

We couldn't be more happier to see Jason back in studio with us at Mentors4mil. He's been an inspiration for so many while he was in uniform and since he's left service. He continues to deal with his demons daily. He has accepted the fact that it will take daily work to fight what he calls "the war inside me". 

Jason's book, 'The War Inside Me' will be out soon.

Sean overcomes barriers including low test scores and a diagnosed heart murmur, leverages mentors and education (University of Hawaii, Columbia, Naval War College), and serves in key assignments from the 173rd Airborne to the NSA and West Point.

He shares lessons on leadership, the importance of mentors like Sergeant Snabel, the concept of “camouflage leadership,” and how persistence, humility, and giving back shaped his career.

      <itunes:summary>A Ranger recounts the sudden shift from training to chaos after the “boom” — helicopters struck, smoke and gunfire, and a race through Mogadishu to extract teammates. They focused on the Ranger Creed.

The episode traces Colonel Larry Perino's (then Lieutenant) path from West Point and Ranger training to Task Force Ranger in Somalia, describing fast‑rope assaults, ambushes, downed aircraft, and the desperate vehicle and foot exfil under heavy fire.

He reflects on the losses, survivor’s guilt, the duty to remember fallen comrades, and how the experience shaped leadership and care for soldiers afterward.

      <itunes:summary>Part One of a 3-Part Series for 2025 as we approach the anniversary of Operation Gothic Serpent - "Black Hawk Down"

In this episode, Tara Harris, daughter of First Sergeant Glenn Harris, talks about her father and all of the men who served with him as part of Operation Gothic Serpent in Mogadishu, that became known as The Battle of Black Hawk Down based on the movie.

Today, Tara gathers photos, interviews, and archives to preserve the stories of her father, but also of all of B Company, 3rd Ranger Battalion before and after Operation Gothic Serpent, Somalia — including the Somalia deployment, the training and daily lives of Rangers of that period, and life then and now at the B Company 3/75 day room. She digitizes records and connects veterans and families so the Rangers’ experiences and legacies from Task Force Ranger are remembered and shared.

If you or someone you know has 75th Ranger Regiment photos, especially those from Mogadishu, email Tara at tharris75thrgrhistory@gmail.com

      <itunes:summary>Kevin Key is a retired U.S. Army Lieutenant Colonel who served with the 2nd Battalion, 75th Ranger Regiment before going through special forces selection and assessment (SFAS) and becoming a Special Forces Officer (18A) with 7th Special Forces Group. He started his military career in the Army National Guard while attending college under the simultaneous membership program (SMP). He served at Special Operations Command - South (SOCSOUTH) and has commanded a unit within the 82nd Airborne Division. 

At one point in this episode, Kevin recounts Operation Willing Spirit (Colombia version is Operation Jacque) — the effort to locate and verify hostages taken after a 2003 FARC plane was shotdown in Colombia, and how U.S. and Colombian forces used covert tactics (including a fake humanitarian operation) to free captives years later.

The episode also traces Key’s path post‑military shift into real estate, restaurant/event property ownership (Cosmic Tiki), cattle ranching and writing about carnivore nutrition in his book.

      <itunes:summary>This episode dives deep into the journey of a seasoned veteran who transitions from high-stakes military operations to confronting personal struggles. Despite the challenges, he finds new purpose and meaning by leveraging his military skills to aid in disaster relief and impact the lives of others. Through candid discussions, discover the power of identity, mission, and community in reclaiming one's life after service. Join us for an inspiring conversation about overcoming adversity, understanding self-worth, and the ongoing battle to make a positive impact in the world.

Adam Smith, a former Green Beret with 17 years of service, is outspoken in leadership, disaster relief, and operational consulting. As the founder of Savage Freedoms, he has built a movement that empowers individuals and businesses to operate at the highest levels of resilience, preparedness, and efficiency.

When Hurricane Helene devastated Western North Carolina, Smith didn’t wait for bureaucratic red tape—he mobilized a massive number of Special Operations Veterans and civilian volunteers which resulted in the formation of Savage Freedoms Relief Operations.

Their effort executed over 2,500 air sorties and countless ground missions to deliver life-saving supplies where FEMA and State Authorities dropped the ball. Since Helene SFRO has deployed to VA, WV, KY, CA, and Texas to provide support and assistance to those who have lost everything.

His expertise in logistics, crisis response, and leadership under pressure has made him a sought-after speaker and consultant, helping organizations and communities build the mindset and infrastructure to thrive in chaos.

      <itunes:summary>In this episode, we sit down with Major Meg Tucker, a U.S. Army veteran who served for 15 years across several sectors of the military. Starting her career as a Kiowa helicopter pilot, Meg later transitioned into psychological operations (PSYOP), where she spent the majority of her time embedded in special operations units. Known for her exceptional physical fitness—scoring the equivalent of a 270 on the men's PT test—Meg brings firsthand insight into the evolving standards of military readiness.

We dive deep into the Army’s newly announced sex-neutral physical fitness test for special operations and combat arms, exploring its implications for the future of combat and the inclusion of women in these demanding roles. Meg Tucker shares candid thoughts on gender integration in the military, the challenges women face in elite units, and how her organization, The Valkyrie Project, is empowering the next generation of warrior women through mentorship, training, and advocacy.

      <itunes:summary>In this episode, we dive into the pervasive impact of social media, phone apps, and digital devices on our daily lives, exploring how they consume hours that could be spent on more meaningful activities.

We discuss recent studies showing that the average person spends over 4 hours daily on their phone, with social media platforms like X, TikTok, and Instagram designed to keep users engaged through addictive algorithms. The hosts share personal anecdotes about missing out on family dinners or quality time with friends due to mindless scrolling. Experts have shared how notification overload and app-driven dopamine loops hijack our attention, reducing productivity and straining relationships. The episode also offers practical tips for setting boundaries, such as app time limits, digital detoxes, and prioritizing face-to-face interactions. Ultimately, the episode challenges listeners to reflect on their digital habits and reclaim time for what truly matters—connection, creativity, and personal growth.

Key Topics:

1. The addictive design of social media and apps

2. Impact on productivity and mental health

3. Strategies for balancing tech use with family and friend time

4. The value of intentional, offline moments

      <description>In this episode, we dive into the pervasive impact of social media, phone apps, and digital devices on our daily lives, exploring how they consume hours that could be spent on more meaningful activities.

We discuss recent studies showing that the average person spends over 4 hours daily on their phone, with social media platforms like X, TikTok, and Instagram designed to keep users engaged through addictive algorithms. The hosts share personal anecdotes about missing out on family dinners or quality time with friends due to mindless scrolling. Experts have shared how notification overload and app-driven dopamine loops hijack our attention, reducing productivity and straining relationships. The episode also offers practical tips for setting boundaries, such as app time limits, digital detoxes, and prioritizing face-to-face interactions. Ultimately, the episode challenges listeners to reflect on their digital habits and reclaim time for what truly matters—connection, creativity, and personal growth.

Key Topics:

1. The addictive design of social media and apps

2. Impact on productivity and mental health

3. Strategies for balancing tech use with family and friend time

4. The value of intentional, offline moments

      <itunes:summary>Guest: William “Red” Redheffer, Former Army Ranger, National Guard Elite Special Operations Detachment, Philadelphia SWAT Officer

Summary:
In this gripping episode, hosts Robert Gowin and Sean Jarvis sit down with William “Red” Redheffer, a decorated former Army Ranger now serving in the National Guard’s elite special operations detachment and is a SWAT officer in the Philadelphia area. “Red” shares his extraordinary life story, including two near-death experiences that left him clinically dead—once during a head-on vehicle accident and again when a railroad stake impaled his head. With raw honesty, he recounts the surreal moments of "crossing over" and the profound insights that reshaped his worldview.

“Red” delves into his philosophy of resilience, forged through years of combat and high-pressure law enforcement work. He introduces his unique mantra: "Every day, kill your clone." This powerful metaphor urges listeners to shed yesterday’s limitations, habits, and fears to embrace each day as a fresh opportunity for growth and purpose. He explains how this mindset has guided him through trauma, loss, and the relentless demands of his dual roles in the military and police force.

The episode also explores “Red’s” current mission to mentor young soldiers and officers, emphasizing mental toughness, adaptability, and the importance of living with intention. His advice is both practical and philosophical, offering listeners a roadmap to confront their own challenges with courage.

Key Moments:

Red’s vivid recounting of his first "death" from a head-on collision, including a moment of peace he can’t explain.
The chaotic SWAT raid where he helped a veteran struggling with PTSD and a heartfelt message to veterans and first responders struggling with PTSD.
A freak accident where a railroad spike impaled his head that led to his second brush with death and its lasting impact on him and his family.
Practical tips for "killing your clone," including daily rituals to reset and refocus.

      <itunes:summary>In this poignant episode, we discuss the challenges faced by veterans as they transition back to civilian life, touching on topics such as the lack of training for reintegration, the mental health struggles, and the physical effects experienced by many after service.

The episode delves into how military training prepares individuals for combat but often fails to address the return to civilian life, leaving some in a perpetual state of fight or flight. Our guest opens up about a pivotal moment triggered by a podcast episode, highlighting the forgotten aspect of deprogramming the combat mindset post-service.

We explore various treatments available for veterans, from stellate ganglion block procedures to magnetic therapies, while acknowledging the absence of a one-size-fits-all solution for issues like PTSD and long-term TBI effects.

Join us as we discuss the need for systemic changes within the VA system and military training protocols, the importance of community and support among veterans, and the crucial issue of rising veteran suicide rates. This episode serves as a call to action for better resources and more substantial support for those who have served.

Our conversation emphasizes the importance of reaching out and checking in with those who have served, offering hope, understanding, and a reminder that they're not alone in their battles after service. If you're a veteran or know someone struggling, tune in for insights and solidarity, and remember the lifeline available through veteran support channels.

Call 988 if you need assistance with the crisis hotline.

      <description>In this poignant episode, we discuss the challenges faced by veterans as they transition back to civilian life, touching on topics such as the lack of training for reintegration, the mental health struggles, and the physical effects experienced by many after service.

The episode delves into how military training prepares individuals for combat but often fails to address the return to civilian life, leaving some in a perpetual state of fight or flight. Our guest opens up about a pivotal moment triggered by a podcast episode, highlighting the forgotten aspect of deprogramming the combat mindset post-service.

We explore various treatments available for veterans, from stellate ganglion block procedures to magnetic therapies, while acknowledging the absence of a one-size-fits-all solution for issues like PTSD and long-term TBI effects.

Join us as we discuss the need for systemic changes within the VA system and military training protocols, the importance of community and support among veterans, and the crucial issue of rising veteran suicide rates. This episode serves as a call to action for better resources and more substantial support for those who have served.

Our conversation emphasizes the importance of reaching out and checking in with those who have served, offering hope, understanding, and a reminder that they're not alone in their battles after service. If you're a veteran or know someone struggling, tune in for insights and solidarity, and remember the lifeline available through veteran support channels.

Call 988 if you need assistance with the crisis hotline.

      <itunes:summary>Robert &amp; Kyle coming at you from Pearl and Pine Brewery in downtown Senoia, GA. We had an awesome chat with our guest Logan Lewis (Lew), who just witnessed a graduation at Ranger School. Lew's journey from the 75th Ranger Regiment, Old Guard, and 6th Ranger Training Battalion (RTB) to mentoring and coaching soldiers is nothing short of inspiring.

Lew opened up about his transition from the Ranger Regiment to the Old Guard, and how he found his true calling in guiding young soldiers. He shared some incredible stories, like mentoring a soldier who went from feeling discouraged to becoming a top Ranger. Lew's all about pushing boundaries, both physically and mentally, and he's got a knack for spotting potential in others.

We also got into the nitty-gritty of Ranger Regiment life, the importance of mental toughness, and how leadership is all about empathy and compassion. Lew's dedication to filling the Ranger Regiment with top-notch soldiers is truly commendable. Plus, he's got some cool insights on the evolving nature of warfare and how training needs to adapt to keep up.

If you're curious about what it takes to be a Ranger, or just want to hear some heartwarming mentorship stories, this episode is a must-listen. And hey, if you want to connect with Lew, just shoot him a message on Black Flag Nation (@blackflagnation_ on Instagram). He's always there to chat, share advice, and help you reach your goals.

Catch you on the next episode!

      <itunes:summary>Robert and Kyle bring you this episode from the cozy Pearl and Pine Brewery located in Senoia, GA. We're thrilled to welcome our special guest, Kaitlin, a remarkable woman whose journey from the Air Force to Surgical Neurophysiologist is nothing short of inspiring.

We dive deep into Kaitlin's experiences, from her time as a weapons troop in the Air Force to creator and host of the "Sierra Hotel Echo" podcast. Kaitlin opens up about the unique challenges female veterans face, the importance of mental health, and how she found her true passion in neuroscience and psychology.

Kaitlin and the Mentors4mil team discuss whether there were potentially preexisting traumatic experiences prior to many of us veterans enlisting that may exacerbate symptoms caused by new traumatic experiences. 

Listen in as we explore the intricacies of trauma, the significance of understanding oneself, and the power of turning off life's noise to find true healing. Whether you're a veteran, a mental health enthusiast, or just someone looking for a heartfelt conversation, this episode is packed with insights and wisdom.

Join us for an engaging chat that reminds us all of the importance of self-discovery and the journey toward well-being. Cheers!

      <itunes:summary>In this dynamic episode, Robert and Kyle, along with other veteran hosts, discuss the often overlooked topic of conventional forces versus special operations forces (SOF). They offer an internal perspective, sharing their unique experiences and the critical role SOF plays in global events. They challenge preconceptions, affirming that anyone can aspire to join the SOF with sufficient determination and guidance. They also underscore the importance of fluidity of roles within the military and the potential organizational consequences of leadership unwilling to yield talent.

The discourse then shifts to the importance of internal cohesion and communication. The intriguing discussion probes the diverse cultures within the military and why both are essential to maintain a balanced force. Intertwining expert opinions, veteran experiences, and actionable advice, this episode promises a deeper understanding of the military world through first-hand accounts.

We proceed to examine the relationship and communication between conventional army and SOF. We stress the importance of regular dialogues, breaking down barriers, and creating mutual understanding. We question the inherent power bias favoring special operations and emphasize recognizing the journey and contributions of conventional army members. Delving deeper, we scrutinize the competitiveness within these forces, the effect of transitions on a team, and the contrasting dynamic of the corporate-like conventional army against the closely-knit SOF. The episode concludes with a challenging query on the potential parity of conventional forces with SOF given the same resources.

Lastly, we explore the selection and training processes, highlighting the 75th Ranger Regiment. Through the lens of former Regiment member, we reveal the grit and determination needed to join this elite organization. We then shift to examine the interplay and mutual relevance of both conventional and special operation units, emphasizing the importance of unity amidst competition. This episode does not only appeal to military enthusiasts but to anyone interested in personal growth, unity, and purposeful rivalry.

      <itunes:summary>In this episode, we introduce you to Jovon P. Quarles or 'Q' as his friends call him, an ex-Navy SEAL from a challenging background of drug-abuse and domestic violence. Q's story, drawn from his experiences in the inner city to military training, is sure to inspire you. His path from hardship to accolade-winning Navy SEAL is a testament to perseverance and the pursuit of dreams despite adversity. We explore the people who shaped his life - his coaches, teachers, aunts, uncles, and grandparents - and his transformative journey of independence and self-discovery prompted by sports.

We dive into Q's various trials and victories, from his state championship days to the racially tense environment of the '90s that he had to traverse. The episode brings you the candid narrative of wrestling personal hardships while aspiring for greatness, and overcoming seemingly insurmountable obstacles with determination and resolve. His tale of redemption, resilience, and triumph amidst adversity resonates with everyone, regardless of background.

Q's path to becoming an elite Navy SEAL, filled with hard knocks and fumbled opportunities, serves as a testament to the indomitable human spirit. His own story is not just about success; it's about acceptance, growth, self-belief, and the power of 'why'. We also discuss his emotional journey through success and loss as he joins the Navy SEALs, reflecting on how adversity can build resilience and empower us all to emerge victorious.

Finally, Q shares his struggles with mental issues, homelessness, and family tragedy. His commitment to self-improvement and passion for mentoring others in the Navy SEALs demonstrates how one can rise above adversity. From his battlefield experiences to his shift towards mental strength and resilience training, Q’s journey underscores the importance of a holistic approach towards success and maintaining constant vigilance.

This episode is an amalgamation of raw, powerful journeys towards achieving personal power, building camaraderie, and pushing boundaries. Q’s story encourages us all to find our inspiration, use it as a fuel to move forward, and embrace the daily gifts of life. Immerse yourself in this profound discussion, filled with determination, strength, and triumph over adversity.

      <itunes:summary>Join in as our panel uncovers the critical transition from being soldiers to becoming numbers, highlighting the inevitable disconnect between civilian and military life. They navigate the subtle war raging within many veterans, and the hesitance surrounding open disclosure of their experiences. Join us as we appraise the struggles, losses, and triumphs of the shared veteran experience.

In the following segment, hear conversation exploring the importance of utilising military service experiences and values positively for society. The episode emphasises the essentiality of veterans consciously deciding to enrich their communities rather than encapsulating an entitlement mentality. Learn about the powerful influence veterans possess to change the world around them through anecdotes of those who've done just that. Highlighting that the 'veteran' tag should be a continued commitment towards societal improvement, not just a badge of entitlement.

Our dynamic panel of four US military veterans ends by addressing leadership, processing trauma, the concept of entitlement and community integration. From the trenches of leadership to the dark crevices of trauma, the episode peels back layers of complexities that come with service. Acquire wisdom through our candid conversation as we unravel the veteran's journey.

If these perspectives enlighten you or you have other topics you'd like us to explore, reach out. Being a veteran encompasses a journey of constant growth and impactful citizenship. So, join us and let these discussions guide your journey.

Sean Jarvis and Mike Burke (Legends of the 75th) join Kyle and Robert as guest hosts on this episode.

      <itunes:summary>Welcome to the latest episode of Mentors for Military Podcast where we are joined by Command Sergeant Major Daniel L. Pinion. A veteran of several historic military operations including the Cold War, Operation Joint Endeavor and Operation Iraqi Freedom, Sgt. Major Pinion offers a compelling narrative of his experiences on the field and as a military leader.

Over his 28-year career, Sgt. Major Pinion has served in a host of leadership positions. His firsthand experiences bring to life the stories of courage, sacrifices and resilience of the soldiers he served with. Now a Department of the Army Civilian in Virginia, he continues his commitment to service but from a different perspective.

Our conversation also covers his recently released book, "Chop That Sh*t Up". A tribute to our brave soldiers, the book encapsulates the trials and tribulations, the shocking and inspiring stories from their deployments in Iraq and elsewhere.

His personal journey, the struggles with depression, PTSD, and the emotional toll of losing soldiers are candidly put forth. Included are his vivid accounts from Ramadi, Iraq, when his unit faced the nearly insurmountable task of making one of the world's most dangerous cities a safer place. These gripping narratives offer a raw and unprecedented view of military life and service.

One of the highlights includes an emotional recounting of an IED explosion that claimed the lives of his fellow soldiers, Staff Sergeant Clint Story and Sergeant Bradley Best. Grappling with emotional turmoil associated with their tragic loss, Sgt. Major Pinion exposes the debilitating reality of PTSD among veterans.

Join us in this deeply touching conversation and gain profound insights into the world of our soldiers, the immense challenges they encounter on the battlefield, and the silent battles they continue to fight in their minds.

      <itunes:subtitle>Welcome to the latest episode of Mentors for Mili…</itunes:subtitle>
      <description>Welcome to the latest episode of Mentors for Military Podcast where we are joined by Command Sergeant Major Daniel L. Pinion. A veteran of several historic military operations including the Cold War, Operation Joint Endeavor and Operation Iraqi Freedom, Sgt. Major Pinion offers a compelling narrative of his experiences on the field and as a military leader.

Over his 28-year career, Sgt. Major Pinion has served in a host of leadership positions. His firsthand experiences bring to life the stories of courage, sacrifices and resilience of the soldiers he served with. Now a Department of the Army Civilian in Virginia, he continues his commitment to service but from a different perspective.

Our conversation also covers his recently released book, "Chop That Sh*t Up". A tribute to our brave soldiers, the book encapsulates the trials and tribulations, the shocking and inspiring stories from their deployments in Iraq and elsewhere.

His personal journey, the struggles with depression, PTSD, and the emotional toll of losing soldiers are candidly put forth. Included are his vivid accounts from Ramadi, Iraq, when his unit faced the nearly insurmountable task of making one of the world's most dangerous cities a safer place. These gripping narratives offer a raw and unprecedented view of military life and service.

One of the highlights includes an emotional recounting of an IED explosion that claimed the lives of his fellow soldiers, Staff Sergeant Clint Story and Sergeant Bradley Best. Grappling with emotional turmoil associated with their tragic loss, Sgt. Major Pinion exposes the debilitating reality of PTSD among veterans.

Join us in this deeply touching conversation and gain profound insights into the world of our soldiers, the immense challenges they encounter on the battlefield, and the silent battles they continue to fight in their minds.

Mohammed Sulaiman was the son of a distinguished military officer of Saddam Hussein and the Iraq Air Force. He grew up one day wanting to follow his father's footsteps and fly. He graduated flight training and his experience resulted in him becoming a member of the Iraq elite VIP Squadron. It wasn't long before he became the pilot of Saddam and his family.

In this episode, Mohammed shares how he became Saddam's pilot and how he was in Baghdad at the military airport in a bunker during Desert Storm when all of the aircraft was destroyed by US bombing raids. He shares how things changed in that country and how his life was in danger, before escaping to America where he's raised his four children and has enjoyed the American Dream.

      <itunes:summary>Veterans Day - World War I 

Larry Freeland is a U.S. Army veteran from the Vietnam War whose father served in WW2 and Korea and a grandfather who served as a doughboy in World War I in Europe. In this episode Larry talks mostly about his grandfather and the stories that he overheard he and his grandfathers veteran friends sharing while playing poker every week. 

He also talks about his grandfather protesting following WW1 in Washington D.C. as part of the Bonus Expedition Forces (BEF) and how the President and government at that time turned against the crowds of veterans who protested. 

A great listen with it being close to Veterans Day as a reminder of the hardships many veterans who've returned from war have endured.

      <itunes:summary>This is part two on the topic of healing from the trauma of war. The previous episode is 349. If you haven't listened to that one first, it would probably help to start there.

Welcome back to a new episode of Mentors4mil. We're happy that you're here. On this episode, Phil and Jared discuss several topics and answer your questions regarding the use of Psychedelics to help with post traumatic stress and traumatic brain injuries.

Jared Rinehart is a former U.S. Marine as an infantryman from 2006 to 2011, and separated as a sergeant. In 2013, he became a contractor and protected a base in the southern province of Afghanistan where he saw a lot combat.

Phil Sussman is a former U.S. Army cavalry and civil affairs officer who saw the trauma of war from his three deployments and he spent a total of 10 years in service.  

Both share their own personal experiences, the challenges of using psychedelics as part of the healing process and having to face their demons, how the process shouldn't be taken lightly, and how it's helped them in their healing journey. It's not the destination, it's part of the journey.

The FDA designated MDMA and psilocybin as "breakthrough therapies" in 2017, which expedites the study and development of drugs that "may demonstrate substantial improvement over available therapy." The Veteran Affairs continues to research opportunities to aid in those struggling with PTSD.

Please see our show disclaimer regarding this content. This episode and the second part are meant to share personal stories of two individuals and to describe/share treatments our veterans are seeking as part of their healing process.

In this episode (Part 1 of 2) Jared and Phil join us to discuss how veterans are now turning to psychedelics to help them heal from the trauma of war. After experiencing the positive effects of psychodelics himself during a trip to Peru, Jared knew this was his purpose: to help others like himself overcome the demons he knew too well. Both share their own personal experiences, the challenges of using psychedelics as part of the healing process and having to face their demons, how the process shouldn't be taken lightly, and how it's helped them in their healing journey.

Somewhat unknown and hidden within Fort Moore (aka Fort Benning) is the Army National Guard's Warrior Training Center (WTC). The ARNG Warrior Training Center trains Service Members in critical functional skills, develops leaders, and represents the ARNG in order to increase the Federal and State operational readiness of the ARNG. 

In this episode, we dive into the Ranger Training Assessment Course, a precursor for those who are wanting to attend Ranger School, with Cpl LeShane, an instructor and former student of the program. He provides all of the details of how to attend this course and how some have also returned to become instructors full-time.

      <itunes:summary>Army Fitness - Change is Coming: Will They Get it Right This Time?

Through the years, the U.S. Army has modified how it performs fitness and tests soldiers to succeed in combat. The Army Combat Fitness Test could change - again - if the Senate Armed Services Committee's markup of next year's defense budget is passed. The final version of the 2024 National Defense Authorization Act still needs to make its way through both chambers of Congress before being signed by the president. 

The guys discuss this topic.

      <itunes:summary>Within 75th Ranger Regiment there are many military occupational skills that are supporting roles known as "low density". Although many are within the Regimental Special Troops Battalion (RSTB) at Fort Moore (aka Ft. Benning), there are also opportunities to join units within each battalion. We sat down with six non-commissioned officers in the Darby Room of the 75th Ranger Regiment HQ. 

RSTB provides the 75th Ranger Regiment and U.S. Army Special Operations Command with increased operational capabilities to sustained combat operations. RSTB conducts command, control, communications, computers, intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance functions in support of the 75th Ranger Regiment and other special operation task forces in order to enable the execution of joint special operations anywhere in the world. Additionally, RSTB provides qualified, trained and ready Rangers to sustain the Ranger Force.

The 75th Ranger Regiment is a lethal, agile and flexible force, capable of conducting many complex, joint special operations missions. Today's Ranger regiment is the Army's premier direct-action raid force. Each of the four geographically dispersed Ranger battalions is always combat ready, mentally and physically tough, and prepared to fight our country's adversaries. Their capabilities include conducting airborne and air assault operations, seizing key terrain such as airfields, destroying strategic facilities, and capturing or killing enemies of the nation. Rangers are capable of conducting squad through regimental-size operations and are resourced to maintain exceptional proficiency, experience and readiness. The regiment remains an all-volunteer force with an intensive screening and selection process followed by combat-focused training. The 75th Ranger Regiment is a proud unit and a team of teams - serving the nation.

      <itunes:summary>You Can Sit Back or Be in Control

STOP: If you haven't watched "Overcoming Adversities &amp; Getting on Track", please watch that episode first. This is Part 2 of our show with Sean.

Sean Jarvis is a retired sergeant major with the U.S. Army who served as a cavalry scout on multiple deployments and has had several assignments across his 26-year career, including the operations sergeant major for 1st Security Forces Assistant Brigade (1st SFAB). 

Sean talks about a night that leads to a driving while intoxicated (DWI) and the set back it took on his career and mental state. Losing a good friend and mentor in combat took an additional toll on him. He knew he needed to get himself straight and he shares how he overcame these initial challenges by taking the tough love former leaders gave him and using it to get back on track. He then goes into the time when he realized, through those who cared about him, that he can either stay stuck in a rut, or do something about it by taking control of his life and his success.

      <itunes:summary>The Battle of Haifa Street was a battle fought during January 2007 for the control of Haifa Street, a two-mile-long street in downtown Baghdad, Iraq, pitting American and Iraqi Army forces against various Sunni insurgent forces between January 6 and January 9, 2007 (phase one), and then two weeks later on January 24 when US forces launched a second attempt to clear Haifa Street of insurgents once and for all. This battle was the precursor for clearing operations that would set the conditions for "the surge" which ultimately neutralized insurgent groups in this part of Baghdad during the spring and summer of 2007.

In Jeff Morris's book, "Legion Rising", he describes his time as a commander of a unit that is caught up in one of the fiercest firefights of the war, the battle of Haifa Street. He previously joined us in Episode 291 to share what happened during that battle where he lost 8 men during and then after due to their wounds. He shared that while looking in the mirror after the battle, "A burning sensation on my face caused me to pause. I leaned closer to my reflection and saw a gash, running across my cheek, under my right eye. I stood still for a moment, trying to imagine what could have caused the cut.

And then I realized.

The skin on my face had been torn by fragments of another man's skull. Fragments that were embedded into the flesh of my own hands."
Episode 291: https://youtu.be/KLCEOcqXWXc

In this episode, Robert and Kyle sit down with Jeff to discuss more of the lighter side of war, when he met with President George W. Bush, when he fired an M1 tank at a target in war, and other stories.

      <itunes:summary>Sophie Hilaire | My Journey Part 2

Sophie Hilaire grew up in a very strict household. These challenging years caused her to push herself constantly and she later set out on trips to Peru and elsewhere to find healing. 

Sophie is a former U.S. Army ordnance officer who graduated West Point and later deployed to Afghanistan in 2012-2013. She holds a Guinness World Record for the 'Fastest marathon in full military uniform' while raising funds for veterans with traumatic brain injuries, she's ran the Boston Marathon, has summited Mount Everest and Denali in Alaska, and traveled to North Korea to compete in the Pyongyang marathon, among many other things. Sophie transitioned out of the Army and then received her MBA from Wharton. She's traveled North America in her van-while advising Fortune 100 clients as a strategy consultant at McKinsey &amp; Company. She's constantly working on herself, while also helping others in their own journey.

      <itunes:summary>In 2011, with the belief that his musical talent was given for the purpose of putting more good into the world, GRAMMY award-winning artist Zac Brown purchased 400 acres of farmland in Fayetteville, Georgia and built a world-class facility dedicated to serving youth and veterans.
Camp Southern Ground's programs are founded on Zac’s own experiences and beliefs. Growing up as a camper and then counselor, Zac has seen first-hand that summer camp has the power to transform a child’s life. Also a staunch supporter of America’s active-duty and veteran servicemembers, Zac believes it is our obligation to honor and care for the men and women who have protected our freedom and kept this country safe.

We are joined by Chris and Jake of Zac Brown's Camp Southern Ground on this episode that was taped at Line Creek Brewing Co. in Fayetteville, GA

      <itunes:summary>We're taught to see leadership as an abstract undertaking, a matter of vision and values rather than practical detail. Combat demands more and requires self-reflection and empathy from the leader. In this episode we sit down with the fellas from Brigands Co. and talk about the differences and challenges of leading in different situations, including combat, and the challenges that go along with that.

      <itunes:summary>One Team, One Fight is the name of a beer brewed by veteran Matt Berger, but it also represents how veterans should join together to support one another post military transition as they did while on active duty. 

Matt served eight years in the U.S. Army (2006-2014) as a mechanic with one tour in Afghanistan (09-10) with the 82nd Airborne Division. He separated the Army and after a while ended up at Line Creek Brewing Co., where he began brewing beer. The brewery decided that they wanted to create a beer and support local veteran non-profits. They asked Matt to lead the effort to create a great tasting beer for this fundraiser. We discuss the impact that this creation had on Matt, his role in the process, and how what he does today helps him deal with the invisible wounds of combat.

      <itunes:summary>By Any Means Necessary is how these men live their lives daily. The word "BRIGAND"
is defined in the dictionary as a member of a gang that ambushes and robs people in forests and mountains, and it is known by many within special operations as something associated with the 75th Ranger Regiment. 

Brothers Dylan and Connor Curtis are former U.S. Army Rangers from 1st Battalion, 75th Ranger Regiment who founded Brigands Co. and was later joined by RJ Casey, a U.S. Army Special Forces (Green Beret), Ranger, and USAF Pararescueman. Between the three of them, they have countless combat deployments to Afghanistan, Colombia, Iraq, Pakistan, the Philippines, Somalia, and Syria. 

In this episode, we sit down with Dylan and RJ to not only discuss their incredible careers in the the Army and Air Force within special operations, we get into what this company does as consultants to a wide array of areas, including medical support, personal recovery, training, film and television script consultation, military advisors, stunts, writers, and rescue safety coordinators on set.

RJ Casey has worked on multiple films, including the very popular Amazon Prime original, "Jack Ryan", the movie "Dunkirk", "The Dark Night Rises", "Inception", "Terminator Salvation", and "We Were Soldiers" to name a few. 

Brigands Co. was founded as an outlet for a continued pursuit of excellence, and a way to use their experience across a range of industries. They live “service before self” and their motto is “by any means necessary”.

      <itunes:summary>Patrick Kinsella spent 1 deployment in Iraq and 4 deployments to Afghanistan while serving with 1st Battalion, 75th Ranger Regiment. His time in SOF had him trained with K9s, and conducting nighttime raids on HVTs and Mi-17 crashes. But, he'll quickly share that some of his best time was as a contractor in Afghanistan where he trained the Afghanistan Female Tactical Platoon (FTP) who is tasked with supporting the Afghan Special Security Forces during counterterrorism operations, specializing in searches, interrogations, and medical assistance.

He came off of the Appalachian Trail to tape this episode and we discuss his time in and out of service and why being on the trail was so important.

      <itunes:summary>Throughout Thomas Bryant's time in the Army, he has come to find his resiliency has taken him on a never-ending battle to be the best he can be when facing any new challenge.

In 2006, Bryant was wounded in an ambush during his first deployment to Afghanistan with this unit, the 173rd Infantry Brigade Combat Team. He was sent to Germany where he would spend a year in the Warrior Transition Unit. There, it was found he had cancer for the second time, he said. His first time was when he was 19, but this time he was told it had moved up to his abdomen, lungs and pelvic area.

      <itunes:summary>On January of 2019, Meyli Chapin was trapped in a hotel room in the DusitD2 in Nairobi for seventeen long hours while Al-Shabaab terrorists attacked the property. She was completely alone, and certain she was going to die. However, thanks to the incomprehensibly brave men who fought to get us out, led by now-retired UK SAS (Special Air Service) operator Christian Craighead, hundreds were extracted to safety. After the attack, though, PTSD made Meyli so miserable that she started to wish she had died after all. Aside from the terrorist attack itself, PTSD is the hardest thing she have ever dealt with in her life.

In this episode, we'll discuss her book which covers the in-depth retelling of the attack, combined with her personal journal entries about PTSD afterward. It's a true story about trauma. About how dark and ugly it can be. Because the unfortunate truth is: the vast majority of us will experience a traumatic event in our lives. "But when I was lying on the floor sobbing, unable to leave my apartment but also unable to sleep, wishing that I had died in that terrorist attack, I didn’t know that. I thought that I was uniquely traumatized, and uniquely weak. I could think of so many stories of incredible, resilient, practically superhuman people who had overcome all manner of horrible things. Why couldn’t I?"

Hard work and relentless training vaulted him to the top of his peer group as a Flight Lead and standardization instructor pilot. His experience and leadership traits put him at the forefront of several clandestine special operations, some still too classified to discuss in an open forum. The attacks of September 11, 2001, prompted the creation of a robust and deadly special operations force: Task Force Dagger. Alan C. Mack, Callsign Razor 03, led a team of MH-47E helicopters and armed MH-60s. We touch on this mission about the Horse Soldiers of 5th Special Forces Group Operational Detachment-Alpha (ODA) 595 where he provided aviation support, and a few other operations.

He shares some really funny and insightful stories about La Escuela Militar de Lanceros (The Lancero School) in Colombia, which is the most-respected Ranger Course in Latin America since its inception in 1956. The Lancero School, like the U.S. Army Ranger School, provides junior officers and enlisted men with the skills and attributes needed to be strong tactical leaders throughout the Colombian Army and in the Lancero Group that does special reconnaissance and direct action missions for the Army divisions. The Lancero badge is a mark of distinction worn by military leaders throughout the Americas.

      <itunes:summary>Brad began his career as an US Army Ranger with 3rd Battalion, 75th Ranger Regiment and saw combat in 1993 at the Battle of Mogadishu before taking the 'long walk' and becoming an operator with 1st Special Forces Operational Detachment–Delta (1st SFOD-D)and ultimately retiring with twenty years of service.

Brad's love as being a musician started early in his childhood. After setting that aside for most of his Army career, he found peace by playing  in his darkest times and after separation he decided to use his talents as a way to give back to the special operations community. In May 2017 he and Jason Everman (former member of Nirvana who was also an Army Ranger and Delta Force Operator) decided to form the band Silence and Light and donate all of their proceeds to nonprofits supporting veterans.

Brad joins Robert Gowin, John Waters, and former Delta Force teammate Chris VanSant (also on this podcast as a guest and occasional cohost) to talk about his career, veteran challenges, and why Silence and Light is so important to him.

      <itunes:summary>Ryan joined the Army and served in the infantry for 6 years before joining Special Forces. He has deployed multiple times to SE Asia and the Middle East. Losing friends and teammates in combat and then through suicide takes a toll and Ryan knew he needed to do something in his own life. "The art of interpersonal communication and connection is quickly being lost on our generation" said Ryan. "What I soon came to realize was that nobody has their life ‘together'. Everyone is struggling with something. Everyone is looking for answers." 

He created The Guerrilla Group in March 2020 to connect like-minded individuals, to open communication of those who attend, and to help them develop a support system. Ryan hopes that by sharing his own story, others may recognize the benefits of a support system and how impactful it can be when a person gets outside of their personal echo chamber.

      <itunes:summary>Functional medicine is a form of alternative medicine whose proponents claim that it focuses on the "root causes" of diseases based on interactions between the environment and the gastrointestinal, endocrine, and immune systems to develop "individualized treatment plans". In some circles it is described as a pseudoscience or as quackery. However, functional medicine is gaining traction, especially within the veteran community, who continue to look for alternative solutions over traditional medicine.

Dr. Alec Weir is a physician who is board-certified in Emergency Medicine as well as emergency medical services. He is a doctor, a police officer on his local SWAT team, and a member of Global Surgical and Medical Support Group (GSMSG), a team that provides medical services around the world. He also does work with the veteran focused Hunter Seven Foundation, an organization focused on the effects and treatment of veterans and active duty personnel who had exposure of toxic burn pits while deployed.

After service he became a maritime security guard on British vessels employed to protect them against Somali pirates. In October 2013, he and the crew of the British merchant ship MV Seaman Guard Ohio were intercepted off the Indian coast accused of being illegally armed in Indian waters. It was all a big misunderstanding, but it took years in an Indian prison and countless times in court before he was released. The group was coined the ‘Chennai Six’ by UK tabloids and campaigners.

      <itunes:summary>160th Special Operations Aviation Regiment (Airborne) is a special operations force of the United States Army that provides helicopter aviation support for general purpose forces and special operations forces. Its missions have included attack, assault, and reconnaissance, and these missions are usually conducted at night, at high speeds, low altitudes, and on short notice. The motto of 160th SOAR(A) is "Night Stalkers Don't Quit!" or "NSDQ".

160th SOAR(A) medics are the premier provider of in-flight trauma/resuscitative care because of their training pipeline. 

Ricky Ditzel joined the US Army with plans to join the US Army's 75th Ranger Regiment, but something happened that changed those plans. Years later, he applied for the 160th SOAR(A) medical section as a Special Operations Flight Medic (SOFM). He shares the journey to becoming a medic in 160th SOAR(A), his current plans of becoming a neuro-surgeon, and then we dive into concussions and traumatic brain injury.

      <itunes:summary>Our identity comes from having a purpose in life. At times we may feel like we've lost our sense of purpose, our direction, and that we are going through the motions of life around us. Our purpose lies deep inside us, and when we find that purpose, it gives our life greater meaning. 
Perry Yee served in the US Navy within Naval Special Warfare as a member of the Sea, Air, and Land team (SEAL). He found his purpose and his passion after struggling with post-military transition.

      <itunes:summary>The Military Assistance Command Vietnam - Studies and Observations Group, also known as SOG, and the heroics of these men during Vietnam are nothing short of incredible. A secret 8-year war in Vietnam was fought outside of the conventional war by SOG and their indigenous troops in Cambodia, Laos, and North Vietnam from 1964 to 1972. These missions would later be described as suicide missions.

John Stryker Meyer entered the Army on 1 December 1966. He completed basic training at Ft. Dix, New Jersey, advanced infantry training at Ft. Gordon, Georgia, jump school at Ft. Benning, Georgia, and graduated from the Special Forces Qualification Course in December 1967. After a 12-week training session in Ft. Gordon, on radio teletype, Meyer landed in South Vietnam in April 1968, and arrived at FOB 1 in Phu Bai in May 1968, where he joined Spike Team Idaho.

Robert is a retired US Army Armor and Recruiter/Retention MSG turned Fortune 50 executive.

      <itunes:summary>The Global Surgical and Medical Support Group (aka GSMSG) brings what the military calls “Role 3” capability (resuscitation, initial-wound surgery and postoperative treatment) to the battlefield and has helped save U.S. lives when these soldiers were too far away from the nearest military treatment facility. GSMSG is a unique nonprofit, humanitarian, veteran-oriented organization that focuses on bringing highly qualified American physicians to austere environments and conflict zones. Aaron is former State Department Intel Group guy turned medical surgeon and Byron is a former SOF guy who now helps orchestrate GSMSG in their mission. Aaron and Byron join Nikki and Robert on this episode.

Robert is a retired US Army Armor and Recruiter/Retention MSG turned Fortune 50 executive; Nikki Selby is a retired US Navy Lt. Commander and Registered Nurse.

      <itunes:summary>At times the noise in the system won't allow us an opportunity to prove our worth based solely on our personal effort and merit. What we can control is our own actions and in remaining true to ourselves.

Savannah Chase joined Robert Gowin and Patty Collins on this episode. Savannah enlisted into the United States Marine Corps and initially became an ammunition technician in Okinawa for two years before becoming the first and only female Infantry Machine Gunner (MOS 0331). She was the first female to pass an advanced level infantry training course. She served with Alpha Company, 1st Battalion, 8th Marines and separated the Marine Corps as a Sergeant.

Robert is a retired US Army Armor and Recruiter/Retention MSG turned Fortune 50 executive; Patty Collins is a retired Colonel in the US Army, having spent over 7 years assigned to Special Mission units within JSOC. A pioneer in her field, she was one of a small number of women to serve in Special Operations and was the first woman in the Department of Defense to complete the Military Free Fall Jumpmaster Course.

      <itunes:summary>It's easy to allow others to dictate your direction and where you should go in life. For some, it happens at an early age and the person may not know how to break the cycle. But, find your courage and go after your dreams.

Alex Weir served four years in the U.S. Marine Corps before recently separating. While serving as a specialized radio operator, she applied for assignment or attachment to MARSOC four times during her career. Although MARSOC wanted her to join their unit, and her full command was behind it, there was always a road block in the way. Robert Gowin, Kat Kaelin, and Erich Martin sit down with Alex to hear her story.

Robert is a retired US Army Armor and Recruiter/Retention MSG turned Fortune 50 executive; Kat Kaelin is a former US Army SSG/E6 who served with Army Rangers and Delta Force in Afghanistan as a CST and is also featured in the NY Times Best Selling book "Ashley's War"; Erich Martin is a recently retired US Army MSG/E8 who spent nearly all of his career as an Special Forces operator (Green Beret).

      <itunes:summary>“Your mind is exponentially stronger than your body and if there is something you want to do; your mind will enable your body to find a way” -- Patty Collins, Colonel, U.S. Army (Ret.)

Many of us would probably never think of amputating a portion of our leg in order to remain on active duty and continue being an athlete, but that is exactly the decision Patty made when faced with a decision following a freak accident. A remarkable story of grit and determination that you won't want to miss. 

Patty Collins retired from the U.S. Army after 24 years of active duty, having spent over 7 years assigned to Special Mission units within JSOC. A pioneer in her field, she was one of a small number of women to serve in Special Operations and was the first woman in the Department of Defense to complete the Military Free Fall Jumpmaster Course.

Robert is a retired US Army Armor and Recruiter/Retention MSG turned Fortune 50 executive; Tom Satterly is a highly decorated retired CSM with Delta Force/CAG; Mike Rutledge is a former US Navy SEAL and US Army 160th SOAR chinook pilot who is currently on active duty.

A remarkable story of grit and determination that you won't want to miss. 

Patty Collins retired from the U.S. Army after 24 years of active duty, having spent over 7 years assigned to Special Mission units within JSOC. A pioneer in her field, she was one of a small number of women to serve in Special Operations and was the first woman in the Department of Defense to complete the Military Free Fall Jumpmaster Course.

Robert is a retired US Army Armor and Recruiter/Retention MSG turned Fortune 50 executive; Tom Satterly is a highly decorated retired CSM with Delta Force/CAG; Mike Rutledge is a former US Navy SEAL and US Army 160th SOAR chinook pilot who is currently on active duty.

      <itunes:summary>Jeff Tiegs spent 28 years in the U.S. Army starting out as a Ranger in 1st Bn, 75th Ranger Regiment and 2nd Bn, 75th Ranger Regiment before attending selection and becoming a Special Forces officer with 10th Special Forces Group (Airborne). He then attended selection and became an operator of the 1st Special Forces Operational Detachment-Delta (1st SFOD-D), commonly referred to as Delta Force, Combat Applications Group (CAG), "The Unit", Army Compartmented Element (ACE), or within JSOC as Task Force Green.

He spent many years hunting down high value targets within Al-Qaeda and ISIS. He and former military special operations veterans of The Guardian Group now use those same skills to hunt down sex traffickers. The mission of The Guardian Group is to prevent and disrupt the sex trafficking of women and children while enabling partners to identify victims and predators in the United States.

      <itunes:summary>Mike Wisecup is a retired U.S. Navy Commander and SEAL with multiple combat deployments. He served as the aide to camp to the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, Gen. Martin Dempsey. He was on the ground during the invasion of Iraq in 2003 and then returned in 2010 to help rebuild. Wisecup was the new guy on SEAL Team 1 when our cadre host Michael Rutledge was already a seasoned SEAL with that team -- along with Jocko Willink and others. These two go down memory lane and we touch on topics of leadership, mentoring, and Wisecup's interesting career choice post military transition.

Robert is a retired US Army Armor and Recruiter/Retention MSG turned Fortune 50 executive; Mike Rutledge is a former US Navy SEAL and US Army 160th SOAR chinook pilot who is currently on active duty.

      <itunes:summary>In the words of Freddie Mercury and Queen: 
"Pressure pushing down on me, 
Pressing down on you, no man ask for, 
Under pressure that burns a building down, 
Splits a family in two, 
Puts people on streets

Chipping around, 
kick my brains around the floor, 
These are the days it never rains but it pours".

Sometimes the pressure around us is too much, or at least that is how it seems to us. In this episode, Robert, Paul, AJ, and Erich talk about pressure in training, in combat, in the workplace, and in life in general. They share personal stories of their own stressful situations on the battlefield and in other areas of their lives, along with techniques they use to help them deal with these situations.

Robert is a retired US Army Armor and Recruiter/Retention MSG turned Fortune 50 executive; Erich Martin is an active duty U.S. Army Special Forces Master Sergeant; Paul Martinez is a retired U.S. Army Ranger sniper who served with 3/75th Ranger Regiment; Alejandra Avila (AJ) is an active duty Security Forces NCO with the U.S. Air Force.

      <description>In the words of Freddie Mercury and Queen: 
"Pressure pushing down on me, 
Pressing down on you, no man ask for, 
Under pressure that burns a building down, 
Splits a family in two, 
Puts people on streets

Chipping around, 
kick my brains around the floor, 
These are the days it never rains but it pours".

Sometimes the pressure around us is too much, or at least that is how it seems to us. In this episode, Robert, Paul, AJ, and Erich talk about pressure in training, in combat, in the workplace, and in life in general. They share personal stories of their own stressful situations on the battlefield and in other areas of their lives, along with techniques they use to help them deal with these situations.

Robert is a retired US Army Armor and Recruiter/Retention MSG turned Fortune 50 executive; Erich Martin is an active duty U.S. Army Special Forces Master Sergeant; Paul Martinez is a retired U.S. Army Ranger sniper who served with 3/75th Ranger Regiment; Alejandra Avila (AJ) is an active duty Security Forces NCO with the U.S. Air Force.

      <itunes:summary>Before Brad was kicking in doors and hunting down bad guys with 3rd Battalion, 75th Ranger Regiment and later as a Tier 1 operator in “The Unit” (aka CAG or Delta Force) over the span of his 20-year U.S. Army career, he was shredding the frets on his guitar. He deployed 8 total times in support of combat operations in Mogadishu Somalia, Bosnia, and Herzegovina, Afghanistan, and Iraq. Now he’s formed a band comprised of U.S. veterans known as Silence and Light and they are donating all of their proceeds to veteran supporting organizations. 

Fellow members of the band Silence and Light are Fred on vocals who served in the Air Force, Brandon on drums who served as a Marine crew chief on Marine One, the presidents helicopter, Tyson on bass, a former MARSOC raider, and Jason Everman on guitar, who many know from his time with Nirvana and Soundgarden who then joined the Army with 2nd Battalion 75th Ranger Regiment and then 3rd Special Forces Group (Airborne) before leaving the military and becoming a Pat Tillman Scholar. 

In this episode, Brad joins Tom, Robert, and Scott to talk about his military career, a song that he wrote immediately following him witnessing a reunion between Tom and another Tier 1 operator, how he redefined himself post transition and some tips that he used that may help you, and why he and fellow band mates feel so strongly about the band Silence and Light.

Robert is a retired US Army Armor and Recruiter/Retention MSG turned Fortune 50 executive; Tom Satterly is a highly decorated U.S. Army Tier 1 retired command sergeant major (CSM) and cofounder of All Secure Foundation, a nonprofit for SOF veterans; Scott Johnson is a former British Army EOD and Sapper.

      <itunes:summary>The odds are pretty good that you've watched Netflix's series Stranger Things before. In the recent series, Jennifer Marshall played the mother of the character "Max". She's also been on hit television shows Hawaii Five-O, Timeless, Game Shakers, and others. 
She joined the U.S. Navy directly after high school and spent five years serving as an aircraft handler, forklift operator, logistics specialist before separating as a second class petty officer (E-5). While serving in the U.S. Navy, her most important collateral duties was working for the USS Theodore Roosevelt’s Sexual Assault Victim Intervention (SAVI) program, teaching policies and procedures to new sailors checking in onboard and being available to advocate for victims of sexual assault.
In this episode she talks about how she became an actor, the portrayal of veterans in Hollywood, military sexual trauma and her own experience, military transition, and the importance of maintaining a sense of service post military.

Robert is a retired US Army Armor and Recruiter/Retention MSG turned Fortune 50 executive; Paul Martinez is a medically retired U.S. Army Ranger Sniper NCO who served with 3/75th Ranger Regiment; Scott Johnson is a former British Army EOD and Sapper.

      <itunes:summary>It's not often that we run across someone who goes from being a U.S. Navy SEAL and who then switch branches to the U.S. Army and become a 160th SOAR pilot! Meet Michael Rutledge and listen to his amazing story of how he was able to live a life of no regret.

CW4 Michael G. Rutledge is the current Commander, 2nd Aviation Detachment, USMA as well as an MX400 instructor and mentor for the West Point Football, Swimming, Parachute Team, and Aviation Club. He enlisted in the U.S Navy in 1990 from Davenport, IA as a Naval Aircrewman and Helicopter Rescue Swimmer. In 1993, Rutledge was selected for Basic Underwater Demolition/SEAL Training. After graduation, he was assigned to SEAL Team ONE and an assignment at the Naval Special Warfare Center at Naval Amphibious Base, Coronado, CA as an Advanced Training Instructor. He completed three overseas deployments to include several contingency operations and was deployed during Sept 11th, 2001. In addition, he served as an M-60 gunner, explosive breacher, team leader, and air operations department head. Upon return from deployment in 2002, Rutledge was accepted to Army Warrant Officer Candidate School and follow-on training as an Army Aviator. 

In this episode, Michael joins Robert Gowin, Erich Martin, and Scott Johnson as he talks about not only his amazing military service, but about topics that focus on the importance of finding your tribe post military service, not living a life of regret, and how it's okay to fail greatly.

Robert is a retired US Army Armor and Recruiter/Retention MSG turned Fortune 50 executive; Erich Martin is an active duty U.S. Army Special Forces Master Sergeant; Scott Johnson is a former British Army EOD and Sapper.

      <itunes:summary>Perception is reality. In today's society and the jury of public opinion, once people create a perception about you, it becomes reality. It then becomes harder to sway their first impression or opinion. Our daily lives are flooded with "influencers" who attempt to use their opinions as facts and try to share why you should take their opinion as the only truth. 

In this episode we are joined by Marty Skovlund Jr. of Black Rifle Company's "Coffee or Die" magazine and Patrick Baker of Task &amp; Purpose. 

Marty is a veteran of the 1st Ranger Battalion. He's the author of Violence of Action: The Untold Stories of the 75th Ranger Regiment in the War on Terror (Blackside Publishing) as well as Ranger Knowledge: The Complete Study Guide (St. Martins Press). Patrick Baker is a former Marine.

      <itunes:summary>Situational awareness is being aware of what is happening around you in terms of where you are, where you are supposed to be, and whether anyone or anything around you is a threat to your health and safety. Simply, it's the ability to identify, process, and comprehend information about how to survive in an emergency situation.

Andrew Blubaugh is a former U.S. Marine and has over 15 years of Military, Private Security and Law Enforcement experience. Andrew is a fulltime police officer, member of a county wide SWAT team and the primary firearm, tactics and use of force trainer for his agency. Additionally, Andrew spent 4 years as an adjunct instructor for the Ohio Attorney General's Office and continues to instruct with Chris Cerino Training Group and Rifle's Only. 

In this episode, Andrew joined Robert, Paul, and Scott to talk about our situational awareness and the importance of knowing that you are your own first responder. Some of the topics include: 
- Is it important to every day carry (EDC)?
- What are the most important things to consider before carrying?
- What should you carry every day?
- Why is situational awareness (SA) important?
- What should we teach our kids to look for when out playing?

Robert is a retired US Army Armor and Recruiter/Retention MSG turned Fortune 50 executive; Paul Martinez is a retired US Army Ranger Sniper who served with 3/75 Ranger Regiment; Scott Johnson is a former British Army Sapper &amp; EOD NCO.

      <itunes:summary>Selection and indoctrination. Underwater Egress Training. Combat Diver Course. Advanced Paramedic Training. Airborne Training. Military Free Fall. Survival and Rescue. Rope Climbing. 

Pararescuemen (also known as PJs) are United States Air Force Special Operations Command (AFSOC) and Air Combat Command (ACC) operators tasked with recovery and medical treatment of personnel in humanitarian and combat environments. The pipeline to become a PJ is long and arduous. 

The maroon beret worn by Pararescuemen and Combat Rescue Officers was authorized by HQ USAF in 1966 and is the second beret to be authorized for universal wear, after the US Army Special Forces Beret. The beret symbolizes the blood sacrificed by fellow Pararescuemen and their devotion to duty by aiding others in distress.

Brian Silva is a former PJ Team Leader and Indoc Instructor. He enlisted in the USAF to be a PJ in 2005 because he wanted more out of his life and felt like he was called to give more. He decided to join Pararescue because he loved the mission, no matter what... you are going to save lives. 

In this episode Brian shares what it takes to be a PJ and what he's seen from students arriving at Indoc unprepared.

Robert is a retired US Army Armor and Recruiter/Retention MSG turned Fortune 50 executive.

      <itunes:summary>“Greg, Greg, we are under attack,” were the last words from Ambassador John Christopher Stevens to his deputy Greg Hicks over the phone from Benghazi office shortly after the attack began around 9:30 p.m.

“If you don’t get here we are going to die,” the radio operator at the tactical operations center in Benghazi pronounced on the radio from the improvised consulate.

Glen ”Bub” Doherty was part of the quick reaction force consisting of eight U.S. military or former military that left Tripoli in the rush to help rescue the Stevens and his colleagues at the consulate. His task was the same as the task of the 21 CIA personnel at the CIA annex one mile from where Ambassador Chris Stevens’ and the others came under attack.

Glen Doherty’s Libya assignment was supposed to be his last for the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA). He had been offered a more suitable job in the private sector that would have allowed him to get out of the line of fire.
Written by Eric Sof.

In this episode his best friend, Sean Lake, joined the crew to talk about he and BUBs childhood dreams growing up as snowboarders, to how BUB became a SEAL, served on a SEAL team, was tragically killed in Benghazi, and how Sean was supposed to use the money left to him by BUBS to throw a big party, but how his friends legacy lives on through The Glen Doherty Foundation and BUBS Naturals.

      <itunes:summary>Vincent 'Rocco" Vargas is not your typical actor on set. That's because he is one of a new brand of heroes among soldiers, wounded warriors and veterans. He’s known for his gritty and humorous insider’s take on going to war, losing your buddies, survivor’s guilt and working to get it right once you’re out of uniform. A veteran of three combat deployments to Iraq and Afghanistan with the 75th Ranger Regiment’s 2nd Battalion, based at Joint Base Lewis-McChord, Washington, and current Army Reserve Drill Instructor. 

He starred in the veteran-produced feature film Range 15, as well a Drinkin’ Bros Live: The Shaved Eagle Tour and Helen Keller vs. Nightwolves. He also wrote, starred in and produced The Long Way Back, a short, semi-autobiographical drama on survivor’s guilt and suicide prevention. His next role is in FX’s Mayans MC, a spinoff of the popular cable-TV crime series Sons of Anarchy, now in production. You can also follow his latest venture "Brothers in Arms" each week on the History Channel.

In this episode he joins Robert, Paul Martinez, and Erich Martin.

Robert is a retired US Army Armor and Recruiter/Retention MSG turned Fortune 50 executive; Erich Martin is an active duty Special Forces NCO; Paul Martinez is a retired US Army Ranger and sniper NCO.

      <itunes:summary>Women have been serving alongside special operations units for nearly two decades. Several years ago the military allowed women the opportunity to join units and schools that were at one time only open to males. 

In this episode, we are joined by Jenny M. who graduated from Ranger School earlier this year (Apr 2018). Jenny is a commissioned officer in the U.S. Army and she discusses why she attended Ranger School and what she gained from it after graduating. Paul and Don join the show as hosts. Paul served in 3/75 Ranger Regiment for nearly nine years and several as a sniper, while Don served as an enlisted Ranger Instructor at 4th RTB and then later returned as a commissioned officer.

Paul Martinez deployed 6 times to Afghanistan as a member of the 75th Ranger Regiment, and is the author of “When the Killer Man Comes”; an account of his combat experience as a Ranger Sniper.  He is also the CEO and co-founder of 33 Degrees Publishing, a print firm that focuses on bringing the American story-telling tradition to the digital age. Don Fox began his U.S. Army career as an enlisted Infantryman. He is a Panama, an OIF, and OEF combat veteran.

      <description>Women have been serving alongside special operations units for nearly two decades. Several years ago the military allowed women the opportunity to join units and schools that were at one time only open to males. 

In this episode, we are joined by Jenny M. who graduated from Ranger School earlier this year (Apr 2018). Jenny is a commissioned officer in the U.S. Army and she discusses why she attended Ranger School and what she gained from it after graduating. Paul and Don join the show as hosts. Paul served in 3/75 Ranger Regiment for nearly nine years and several as a sniper, while Don served as an enlisted Ranger Instructor at 4th RTB and then later returned as a commissioned officer.

Paul Martinez deployed 6 times to Afghanistan as a member of the 75th Ranger Regiment, and is the author of “When the Killer Man Comes”; an account of his combat experience as a Ranger Sniper.  He is also the CEO and co-founder of 33 Degrees Publishing, a print firm that focuses on bringing the American story-telling tradition to the digital age. Don Fox began his U.S. Army career as an enlisted Infantryman. He is a Panama, an OIF, and OEF combat veteran. After attending Airborne School and Ranger School as enlisted, he served as a Ranger Instructor (RI) and a tour with the 82nd ABN before attending OCS. His tours as an officer included 4th RTB, Infantry Basic, 3rd ID, and the Pentagon. Don retired with nearly 30 years of service. Robert Gowin is a retired US Army Armor and Recruiter/Retention MSG turned Fortune 50 executive.

      <itunes:summary>For the first time, a female soldier has passed the U.S. Army's Special Forces Assessment and Selection (SFAS) course. This is one step of many ahead before completing the pipeline to becoming a Special Forces soldier, aka "Green Beret".

      <itunes:summary>When an Airman needs saving, it’s the PJs duty to do everything they can to bring them home. As members of Air Force Special Operations, Pararescue (PJ) specialists rescue and recover downed aircrews from hostile or otherwise unreachable areas. These highly trained experts perform rescues in every type of terrain and partake in every part of the mission, from search and rescue, to combat support to providing emergency medical treatment, in order to ensure that every mission is a successful one.

A lifelong student of living, Matt Schollard believes the purpose of existence is experience, exploration of Self, and evolution. Raised globally, his exposure to a multitude of cultures at an early age left a lasting impact on his quest to find 'meaning' in life. Inspired by Eastern philosophies, punk rock, yoga, windsurfing, and the overwhelming commonalities he identified in the people of Earth, Matt shaped his own unique guiding principles that have lit the way along a diverse and inspiring path.

Upon reaching legal adulthood, after an unfortunate skateboarding misunderstanding forced him to leave Australia, Matt decided that he needed to seek out the 'hardest job in the world' to test his potential. Following his will &amp; wind, he found himself in the years-long quest to become a US Air Force Pararescueman (PJ).

      <itunes:summary>Tom Satterly is a highly decorated combat veteran, who along with his teammates, was portrayed in the Oscar Winning 2001 film: Black Hawk Down. 
Tom served in the Army 25 years, 20 in the US Military’s most elite Tier One unit, Delta Force, and has been involved in and led some of our nations most important campaigns.  
As a member of Delta Force, Tom has been deployed countless times, and led hundreds of missions. Beyond Tom's proven experience of leadership and critical decision making in high-risk environments, Tom also has fought and is winning his own "silent war" off the battlefield, at one time coming close to taking his own life and becoming a statistic.  His innate strengths of courage, perseverance, and "can do" attitude has saved his life countless times.  
Knowing we all have our personal battles we fight, Tom chooses to share his story with others in order to help them overcome their personal obstacles. He takes an honest approach to sharing his unique life lessons both in his military career and personal life in order to connect with his audience on how they too can succeed despite any challenges they may encounter.  
He and his wife Jen sat down to talk with Robert, Erich Martin, and Paul Martinez about Tom's career, going through Special Forces Assessment Selection (SFAS), Delta Selection, his mission in Mogadishu in 1993 (aka Black Hawk Down; Operation Gothic Serpent; Task Force Ranger) the teammates he lost, his near suicide attempt and how Jen saved his life, and the passion they now have to help others make the military transition. www.allsecurefoundation.org

      <itunes:summary>We are all guilty of procrastination at some point. Parkinson's law is the adage that "work expands so as to fill the time available for its completion". If you are given 8 hours to accomplish something, you'll take all 8, even though the task may only take 2 hours. This is another form of procrastination. Robert, Alejandra "AJ", and Scott discuss Parkinson's Law and how leaders can deal with it.

      <itunes:summary>People often make excuses for why they have found the right group to connect with, or the right person in their life, or why their military transition wasn't successful. Chris Schmitt discusses the reasons why people struggle and identifies ways for you to connect.

Chris Schmitt recently retired from 30 years of service as a United States Army Special Forces “Green Beret.”  During the past three decades, Chris has gained extensive experience commanding, planning and executing special operations missions around the world.  Through facilitating the success of Partner Nation leaders, both General Officers and Government Leaders, in Afghanistan, Europe, Northwest Africa and Canada, he learned that we excel when we all work together.  His career allowed him to serve as a mentor, trainer and coach both in combat and uncertain environments at the strategic, operational and tactical level in Afghanistan, the Sahara and the Balkans. 

Holding a Master of Science in Organizational Development from Central Washington University, a Bachelor of Science in International Relations from the United States Military Academy at West Point, and pursuing Executive Certification for Coaching from Columbia University, Chris is uniquely qualified to executive coach, conduct cross-cultural mentoring, facilitate self-discovery, and assist others to attain success.  Inspiring high achievers to achieve heroic aspirations is his purpose as he works to become a corporate “Green Beret.”

Since retirement, Chris has conducted face-to-face coaching and advising with leaders from Fortune 500 Companies like Starbucks, Hudson Bay Company, Nike, Intel, Western Union, and Costco Wholesale. He has facilitated leadership workshops and led non-traditional, adventure-based, outdoor, leadership development.  Chris founded the Azimuth Consulting Group, teaches in the MBA Program at City University in Seattle, and remains connected to the U.S. Special Operations Community through special projects. Mastering his own transition, he is passionate about support to the Veteran Community and serves as the Chapter Captain for the Seattle Chapter of Team Red, White and Blue. In turn, Team Red, White and Blue is supporting his development as a Team RWB Eagle Leadership Fellow.  

Christopher is a certified Birkman Method coach and possess a US Government Top Secret clearance. Regularly, Christopher, Kristina, and their two children can be found hiking, biking, skiing and kayaking the mountains, logging roads and rivers near their home in the Snoqualmie Valley, Washington.

In this episode he joins Robert Gowin, Alejandra Gill, and Scott Johnson to talk about finding your true north.


Robert is a retired US Army Armor and Recruiter/Retention MSG turned Fortune 50 executive; Scott Johnson is a former British Army Engineer and EOD NCO; Alejandra Gill ("AJ") is a Security Forces NCO in the USAF.

      <itunes:summary>Excellence and success are dependent upon the individuals willingness to put in the hard work to achieve it. A person has to know their strengths and their weaknesses before they can move forward. Even when on the firing range, every person has different ability levels and it's important that the right level of guidance is given before a person can make an improvement. 

Drew Estell is the owner of BaerSolutionsllc.com, and is a former Green Beret and current weapons instructor. As Drew has often said: "the more experienced shooter they are, the less feedback they should be given. Too much info, and it will hurt their progress instead of help. Less experienced shooters can have a little more feedback because they are essentially a blank canvas without as many bad habits learned. [Training each is] a balancing act and their success is going to be based off of how well you read their performance and interpret their frustrations."

In this episode, Drew joins Robert, Otis McGregor, and Scott Johnson to talk about achieving excellence on a weapons range and achieving excellence in the board room - there are several similarities with both.

Robert is a retired US Army Armor and Recruiter/Retention MSG turned Fortune 50 executive; Drew Estell is a former US Army Special Forces NCO; Otis McGregor is a former US Army Special Forces Officer; Scott Johnson is a former British Army Engineer/Sapper and EOD Technician.

      <itunes:summary>In the early hours of Christmas Eve 2007, Royal Marines Commando Mark Ormrod was out on a routine foot patrol in the Helmand Province of Afghanistan when he stepped on and triggered an Improvised Explosive Device. Thanks to the swift action of the men around him and the intervention of the Medical Emergency Response Team he was airlifted via helicopter to an emergency field hospital in a desperate attempt to try and save his life. An innovative and dangerous procedure carried out onboard a Chinook helicopter en route to the hospital did save his life. He woke up three days later in the UK in Selly Oak Hospital, Birmingham: Both legs amputated above the knee and his right arm amputated above the elbow. He was the UK’s first triple amputee to survive the Afghanistan conflict.

Mark joins Robert, Scott Kinder, and Scott Johnson to share his story of how he never lets his circumstances or past define who he is and his relentless effort to live life to the fullest. Mark is always free to share his story to inspire others and he finds ways to give back to those who can benefit from his amazing journey.

Damian and the team share stories from several combat experiences. 

“I’ve rarely been in combat situations and seen what people would consider fail, everyone is trying to do their best. [Know that]...not every way of learning is the best way for every single person.” —Damian Jungermann

Robert is a retired US Army Armor and Recruiter/Retention MSG; Scott Kinder is a former US Army Special Forces SSG; Scott Johnson is a former British Army EOD NCO; Kat Kaelin is a former US Army CST SSG.

      <itunes:summary>"It seems like everyone is stating the importance of being resilient, especially in the business world. The trouble is, not many people talk about how to build resiliency." Jason Dickinson recently separated from the US Army as a Major in the 5th Special Forces Group (Airborne). In this episode we talk with Jason about his many failed attempts (beginning with recycling 2nd grade!) throughout his life and career and how that has helped him be a better person and a better leader. We hope to welcome Jason back many times as a guest host.

It's not easy being a leader and, trust us, you'll make plenty of mistakes along the way! But, that's all part of being a leader. You have to be willing to humble yourself and remain teachable, because leadership is a process and you should never stop learning how to be a better leader.

      <itunes:summary>Imagine finding that you are genetically predisposed for the genetic mutation BRCA2. According to the National Cancer Institute, BRCA2 (Breast Cancer 2, Early Onset) is "a gene on chromosome 13 that normally helps to suppress cell growth. These proteins help repair damaged DNA and, therefore, play a role in ensuring the stability of the cell's genetic material. When either of these genes is mutated, or altered, such that its protein product either is not made or does not function correctly, DNA damage may not be repaired properly. As a result, cells are more likely to develop additional genetic alterations that can lead to cancer." When Maggie discovered she carried the BRCA2 gene, she took immediate action and began the run for her life. Hear how she reacted when faced with this life-threatening medical issue and how her husband helped her recover and find her new passion. She was quoted in the Army Times as saying "I want women to get tested…I want them to know there are others out there experiencing the same thing, others who have been through it," Smith said. "Men are carriers too -- get tested."

      <itunes:summary>This episode is socked full of great tips for anyone making a career change as well as active duty military considering transition within the next few years. Tom Moore is the cofounder and Managing Director of WithYouWithMe based out of Australia. WithYouWithMe is a veteran owned tech start up that solves the problem of effectively transitioning personnel from the ADF to the Australian private sector. This organization will soon be available to U.S. Military transitioning from service. Like America, Australian society has long struggled to manage the transition of veterans into the workplace because they generally don’t understand the military lifestyle, career, experiences and skills, and thus cannot assign positive value to them. WithYouWithMe is partnering with Australian businesses (and soon U.S. businesses) to fill this knowledge gap and educate the working force on the true value of veterans in the work place. Joining Robert on this episode is former Australian SF soldier, Bram Connolly. For more about WYWM, visit https://www.withyouwithme.com.au/

      <itunes:summary>Fiona Heloise was a commissioned officer in the U.S. Army Military Police branch who recently decided that she needed to make a career change in order to match her passion and to ensure she developed enough experience in her career for a future military transition. She chose to go into the criminal investigation division (CID) and it meant that she would have to leave her commission and become a warrant officer. We talk about her career, but primarily about how life throws curves balls at us and at times we have to adjust in order to live out our passion. Fiona made a huge decision, but one that fits her passion and will set her up for future success. Joining us on the episode as a guest host is Don Fox.

      <description>Scott Kinder served in differing roles on an Operational Detachment – Alpha (A-team) in the US Army Special Forces before transitioning to civil service and helping stand up the newly operationalized Marine Special Operations Command (MARSOC).  This service spanned more than a decade at differing command levels of Special Operations Forces. He entered the U.S. Army in the 18X (Special Forces Candidate) program. Following his active service, he became an entrepreneur and an author. We talk about not only his career, but also about how success takes hard work. You can learn more about Scott at www.scottckinder.com.

      <itunes:summary>William Oatis is a U.S. Army Special Forces soldier (Green Beret) that in the Spring of 2012 began the VETERAN FIRE COOKING PROJECT,  a one person mission to travel the world figuring out the best way to reintroduce Mankind to the dying Craft of cooking with fire. In all, he has traveled to six continents and roughly 70 countries researching how we’ve cooked for more than 200,000 years. The intent behind his 5-year journey was to provide us with the most comprehensive series of live-fire books written….ever. He has also designed high quality, purpose built tools so that we can safely entertain our family and friends in these primal ways. He talks to Robert Gowin and Mike Pritts about his journey from a SF soldier in Afghanistan to finding his passion of cooking over fire.

From an enlisted member of the U.S. Army to an executive within a $60 Billion company, Robert shares his experience of the differences between these two roles.

      <itunes:summary>U.S. Army Captain Derick Carver was on a patrol in the Afghan desert when he hit an IED. The blast destroyed his left leg almost to the pelvis, and about 50 percent of his right thigh. Derick suffered a serious shrapnel wound to his left elbow, the index finger on his right hand had to be partially amputated, and the pinkie and index finger on his left hand were fused together. The Ranger-trained Carver was leading his outfit on a dismounted patrol to, ironically, clear IEDs from an area where U.S. troops were soon to open a school for 2,000 children. He hasn't let his disabilities slow him down. He has competed at the highest levels as a crossfit athlete. He talks to Robert Gowin and Mike Pritts about his sudden military transition, the effects of combat stress, PTSD in troops, and how medical marijuana should be discussed as an alternative to assist those suffering from loss of sleep and combat stress.

      <itunes:summary>Stuart Pearson went on a routine patrol to observe and possibly attack a Taliban checkpoint near Kajaki Dam in Helmand province. As his patrol carefully picked their way down a ravine, his friend, Cpl Stuart Hale, hopped across a river bed and then flew backwards after stepping on a mine. Stuart Pearson was the next victim after he stood on a mine as he went to his friend's aid. He looked down and all that was left of his lower leg was a shoe lace still attached. Another soldier, Andy Barlow, who subsequently won the George Medal for attending to the wounded, stood on a mine after reaching to grab a bottle of water that had been thrown to him. The NCO in charge, Cpl Wright, was severely wounded twice by shrapnel but he still continued looking after the men. Once rescued, Cpl Mark Wright died in the helicopter. A movie was made about the event - "Kilo Two Bravo" that is currently on Netflix. Stu Pearson joins Robert Gowin to talk about the events of that day, what he's been doing since separation from the military, and how he now works to assist others.

Mylee returned to the United States to find out that she had stage 3 invasive ductal carcinoma. She began chemotherapy and 35 rounds of radiation, before undergoing a bilateral mastectomy. She finished a marathon while on chemo. We discuss the many obstacles that she has overcame as well as why the CST program had difficulties with SOF soldiers.

      <itunes:summary>Johnny Joey Jones was a Staff Sergeant in the Marines. While in, he requested a lateral move into the Explosive Ordnance Disposal (EOD) specialty and in 2010 was deployed with his unit to the Helmand Province of Afghanistan to disarm the Improvised Explosive Devices (IED’s) used by the Taliban. While in country, Joey disarmed over 85 IEDs and disposed of several thousands of pounds of unknown bulk explosives. In August 2010, not long after his arrival, Joey’s deployment was abruptly ended when he stepped on an IED while conducting EOD procedures, losing both legs above the knee. He is now the Chief Operating Officer at Boot Campaign, a non-profit, and continues to give back his time to help fellow veterans. We were in awe of Joey and his story and we can't wait to hear about the next chapter of his life.
