In November of 2016, Mosul was the epicenter of the intense battle to drive ISIS out of Iraq. CNN reporter Arwa Damon, her cameraman, and an Iraqi security convoy were ambushed and trapped behind ISIS enemy lines. A US Navy SEAL platoon quickly activated to save them. However, as hundreds of ISIS fighters were closing in, the only chance of a rescue was with the assistance of incredibly precise and powerful air strikes. Luckily, embedded with the SEALs that day was our guest: former US Air Force Technical Sergeant Josh Apple.When most people hear about air strikes they think of missiles launched from miles and miles away. However, when Americans are in contact with the enemy, ‘Danger Close' air strikes often turn the tide of the battle. These strikes are not possible without the incredible work of a Joint Terminal Attack Controller (JTAC), also often referred to as Air Combat Controllers, who are on the ground directing lethal air assets in real-time with remarkable precision. Under-appreciated and under-reported, it is impossible to overstate the critical role JTACs play in US military operations worldwide. When Josh Apple and the SEALs received word that a reporter and her cameraman were being closed in on in urban Mosul, they knew the stakes were enormous. The race to save them was a race against fatal consequences, which likely would have played out in the very public fashion which ISIS prefers. Josh Apple is the recipient of the Bronze Star Medal for Combat Action. We are honored that he took the time to tell this amazing story and we thank him and all of our Air Combat Controllers for their vital and truly spectacular work.Thanks for listening and don't forget to download, subscribe, rate, and review Heroes Behind Headlines.The Short Box: A Comic Book Podcast Join four lifelong friends for entertaining discussions about comics and culture.Listen on: Apple Podcasts Spotify Blue Canary: For Cops By a CopWho approaches the scene first risking their lives for the safety of others?

How well do you honor your word? How often do you honor your word? Ask yourself those question and be brutally honest with your answer. 2. We often quit when we know we shouldn’t. I don’t think all types of quitting are bad but the question is do you quit when it gets tough — even when you know it’s the right thing for you. I used to quit and whine a lot, but I’ve learned that to get things done you have to push through the difficult times. Remember, there is always a solution to your problem. 3. How well trained are you for the type of life that you want? This point stuck out to me. You heard how in the Navy SEALs they train through hellish circumstances. Although we will never see combat, we will face situations that will test us. And here’s the question, how well trained are you for that?   What an incredible story! After such a powerful interview I would love to know: What can you do to be better? Please, post you answer in the comment section or email me at  .  I’d love to hear from you!   Resources: Book:   Connect with Thom:   Thanks for Listening!
