Between 2006 and 2020, 75% of all active-duty U.S military fatalities were classified as non-combat related deaths. 93% of those deaths occurred right here in the United States of America. In today's episode, I talk to Gold-Star Mother Heather Baker, who's son, PV2 Caleb Smither was found dead in his own bunk after a head injury placed him on bed rest. Cause of Death: apathy, complacency, and ignorance on behalf of his fellow soldiers, and the shirking of responsibility by his own command.    Order Your Copy Of THE SAFETY TRAP Today! visit: www.TheSafetyTrap.com      Show Notes: https://www.fayobserver.com/story/news/2021/07/01/fort-bragg-soldier-found-dead-barracks-mother-questions-death-caleb-smither/7745174002/?fbclid=IwAR3voXoedNKJgjC8bgksODfz4BYQ2D8zie-NBby8Yb1BEU-Vl3kxnn6-bLo https://www.mercurynews.com/2021/07/15/gao-report-examining-numerous-non-combat-deaths-finds-lapses-in-training-oversight-among-marines-and-army/  https://fas.org/sgp/crs/natsec/IF10899.pdf  https://nationalinterest.org/blog/buzz/vast-majority-active-duty-military-deaths-happen-us%E2%80%94what-going-wrong-185204  https://www.vanityfair.com/news/2021/06/inside-the-rash-of-unexplained-deaths-at-fort-hood  https://www.law.cornell.edu/wex/feres_doctrine    Connect with HETHER HEDGE BAKER Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/heather.jackson.7374  Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/hedge76/?hl=en  Email: heather.hedge.baker@gmail.com   Connect with SPENCER COURSEN Spencer Coursen's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/s.coursen/  Spencer Coursen's Twitter: https://twitter.com/spencercoursen  Spencer Coursen LinkTree: https://linktr.ee/spencercoursen Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/user/CoursenSecurityGroup  Podcast: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/coursens-corner/id1522159044      Connect with THE SAFETY TRAP Official “The Safety Trap” Website: www.TheSafetyTrap.com  The Safety Trap Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/TheSafetyTrap/  The Safety Trap Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/thesafetytrap/    PRODUCTION NOTES Coursen's Corner is a production of Coursen Security Group  This episode was also brought to you by The Safety Trap Music, courtesy of Ben Sound

Episode #28: “what3words” could save your life When calling 911 from a cell phone, the most important piece of information to a dispatcher is the exact location of the caller... which is something cell phones can't provide. But for those emergencies where moments matter most, a new app is changing the way we can communicate our exact location. Enter “What3words” a mobile application which has divided the entire world into 10ft squares and then issued each square a unique three word identifier. I tested the app out this week, and it just might be the most effective, practical, and easy-to-use mobile safety app I've seen offered thus far.    Order Your Copy Of THE SAFETY TRAP Today! visit: www.TheSafetyTrap.com    Show Notes: What3Words: https://what3words.com/clip.apples.leap  911's Deadly Flaw: https://www.cbs19.tv/article/news/local/9-1-1s-deadly-flaw-why-dialing-9-1-1-from-a-cell-phone-can-cost-you-precious-time/501-2f89f766-726e-4ef4-b434-14b2b57b1ff0  Can Your Survive This Podcast: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/can-you-survive-this-podcast/id1510862926    Connect with SPENCER COURSEN Spencer Coursen's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/s.coursen/  Spencer Coursen's Twitter: https://twitter.com/spencercoursen  Spencer Coursen LinkTree: https://linktr.ee/spencercoursen Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/user/CoursenSecurityGroup  Podcast: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/coursens-corner/id1522159044      Connect with THE SAFETY TRAP Official “The Safety Trap” Website: www.TheSafetyTrap.com  The Safety Trap Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/TheSafetyTrap/  The Safety Trap Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/thesafetytrap/      PRODUCTION NOTES Coursen's Corner is a production of Coursen Security Group  This episode was also brought to you by The Safety Trap Music, courtesy of Ben Sound

On this weeks’s podcast I had the pleasure of speaking with Amanda Kippert, Editorial Director of Domestic Shelters-- which hosts the only comprehensive online directory of domestic violence shelters throughout the United States and Canada. Amanda wears many hats: Advocate; Editor; Journalist; Podcast Host, but all of them are in support one mission -- which is to help those impacted by Domestic Violence to free themselves from the confines of harm, and to then survive and thrive in their lives from that day forward.Regardless if you are impacted by this concern yourself, a survivor of past abuse, or know someone who is currently at-risk, this conversation is one which may very well help to save a life. This episode of Coursen's Corner is brought to by The Safety Trap: A Security Expert's Secrets For Staying Safe in a Dangerous World.Pre-Order Your Copy Of THE SAFETY TRAP Today.Available Everywhere May 18thvisit: www.TheSafetyTrap.com to learn more. SHOW NOTESConnect with Amanda: via her website: AmandaKippert.com Subscribe to her podcast: ToxicThePodcast.com Support Domestic Shelters: DomesticShelters.orgAmanda’s article via HuffPo: “What It’s Like To Survive Domestic Violence In the Military.” Production Notes:Coursen’s Corner is a production of Coursen Security Group This episode was also brought to you by The Safety TrapMusic, courtesy of Ben Sound  Connect with Spencer Coursen:Follow Spencer Coursen on twitter and instagram for updates and interactions between shows. Spencer Coursen LinkTree: https://linktr.ee/spencercoursen
