Podcasts about special tactics

Send us a textIn this episode, we dive deep into why the Air Force is reimagining its Special Tactics pipeline. Peaches, Aaron, and Trent chat with Maj Col Chris Walsh about why change fatigue is a cop-out, the pitfalls of staying stuck in GWOT-era training, and why your excuses are just as outdated as your skills. From CVT validations to the mysteries of SOCOM expectations, this episode is equal parts brutal truth and unfiltered sarcasm. Like, subscribe, smash the bell, leave a review, and join our membership—because if you're still making excuses, you probably shouldn't be here anyway.Support the showJoin this channel to get access to perks: HEREBuzzsprout Subscription page: HERECollabs:Ones Ready - OnesReady.com 18A Fitness - Promo Code: 1ReadyATACLete - Follow the URL (no promo code): ATACLeteCardoMax - Promo Code: ONESREADYDanger Close Apparel - Promo Code: ONESREADYDFND Apparel - Promo Code: ONESREADYHoist - Promo Code: ONESREADYKill Cliff - Promo Code: PODCASTKC20...

Today's episode of The Debrief  features a unique format: this episode was recorded live at the National Tactical Officers Association Annual Conference in Aurora, Colorado. I was fortunate to moderate a panel discussion that included the presidents of five separate tactical associations including: Brent Straton from the California Association of Tactical Officers, Chris Eklund from the Florida SWAT Association, Thor Eells from the National Tactical Officers Association, Nick Sprague from the Rocky Mountain Tactical Teams Association and Dan Colasanto from the Texas Tactical Police Officers Association.  This was a wide-ranging discussion that covered a number of current topics in special tactics including: Constitutional Policing, Militarization of law enforcement, SWAT standards, no-knock warrants, and the use of dynamic tactics in search warrants.  The contrast between the different regional and national perspectives on these issues made for a great conversation.  I'd like to thank the NTOA, CATO, Florida SWAT, RMTTA, and TTPOA for their willingness to share this discussion with our audience. A note regarding audio quality: this episode was recorded live, in a large group setting, at the NTOA conference. We have done our best to reduce most, but not all, of the background noise. It is our hope that you find this content informative and thought-provoking despite these distractions. Important Links:CATO - Home | CATO (catotraining.org)Florida SWAT Association - Home (memberclicks.net) NTOA - NTOA | National Tactical Officers AssociationRMTTA - Rocky Mountain Tactical Team Association (rmtta.com)TTPOA - TTPOA

Col James Oeser, an Air Force Special Tactics Officer, initially started his career as a navigator.

Special Tactics Training Squadron, or STTS, is one of the premier training squadrons in the entire Air Force. Every single Combat Controller and Special Reconnaissance Airman passes through the doors of STTS, and for a good reason- it's where ST performs it's final evaluations on all candidates before they hit their unit. Maj Chris Walsh, a Special Tactics Officer, took over STTS after his stint trying out for the Olympic Bobsled team as part of the World Class Athlete Program and has worked hard to make the organization the crown jewel of the ST pipeline. He was kind enough to talk about all things STTS- where it's going, its challenges, and what he has in store for you at the end of your pipeline.

They knew it wasn't over... in the aftermath of The Nightmare they survived in Umbrella Corporation's secret underground research facility, the surviving members of Special Tactics and Rescue Squad (S.T.A.R.S.) tried to warn the world about horrifying bio-organic weapons (B.O.W.s). But the conspiracy is far from dead the S.T.A.R.S. are declared outlaws by the people who trained them. Forced underground to battle Umbrella on their own.

Will the S.T.A.R.S. survive even as they are infected with an aggressive DNA altering virus engineered by Umbrella to create Living Weapons? Stay tuned and find out. I hope you enjoy.

The first podcast of 2022 started with the news I helped spread this week of an AFSCO whistleblower memo alleging wildly favorable treatment to a female officer combat control candidate and the chaos it has unleashed within the Special Tactics community. Then it was the India temple stampede, the North Korean defector who changed his mind, a new product to help premature ejaculation, old man falls to his death in a volcano, and an old guy in Korea killed an employee by jamming a 70cm stick into his rectum. Music: Daggers/"We Came As Romans"

04MAR2002: Planning to insert on a mountaintop in support of Operation Anaconda in Afghanistan, TSgt John Chapman's aircraft was hit by enemy fire. Buckling from the explosion, PO1 Neil Roberts was thrown from the aircraft, landing near al-Qaeda positions while the Chinook was forced to land four miles away. Coordinating their pick up and reinsertion to the top of Takur Ghar, TSgt Chapman volunteered for the mission to rescue their stranded comrade. As soon as they landed on the mountaintop, the entire seven man team came under heavy enemy fire. Without regard for his own safety, T/Sgt Chapman charged forward, with Senior Chief Britt Slabinski close behind, and cleared the nearest bunker killing two enemy fighters in the process. Now with a little breathing room for their SEAL team, Slabinski and Chapman began their assault towards the second bunker. At this point, TSgt Chapman was shot twice and presumed dead by his teammates. As enemy fire intensified, Slabinski made the call to begin movement back down the hillside to a more tenable position. Approximately 30 minutes after his team moved down the mountaintop, Chapman regained consciousness and began his one man stand against at least twenty al-Qaeda fighters. For nearly an hour, Chapman engaged the enemy positions, fending off multiple charges and engaging in hand to hand combat. With his SEAL team still sustaining casualties and heavy enemy fire, Chapman stayed out front providing cover as best he could. Suffering from multiple wounds, Chapman's final act was to stand and suppress the enemy positions as reinforcements were nearly shot down and landed mere meters behind his position. TSgt Chapman's sacrifice and continued determination allowed for the survival of his SEAL team as well as countless Rangers that landed with the QRF. Without him bearing the brunt of the enemy attack, American casualties likely would have been substantially worse that day. For his actions Technical Sergeant John Chapman would be posthumously awarded the Medal of Honor, the first in the war in Afghanistan.

06DEC2001: Serving as a combat controller with the 24th Special Tactics Squadron, T/Sgt Michael Stockdale was working with teams from the U.S. Army SFOD-D in Afghanistan.  With word that bin Laden had moved into a mountain range bordering Pakistan, Stockdale's team along with their Afghan allies moved in. Holed up in what's known as Tora Bora in eastern Afghanistan, bin Laden and al-Qaeda had built a substantial defensive network amidst what was already a formidable natural fortress.  In order to assault the defenders, American air power would be critical. The first three days of the fight would see T/Sgt Stockdale masterfully employing close air support in a devastating manner.  As the fight raged, Stockdale moved to the front lines to gain a better view of the enemy positions and started servicing one after the other. Working non-stop for days on end, T/Sgt Stockdale was regularly coordinating between multiple aircraft, sending targets, and aligning attack headings all while more aircraft came on and off station.  An incredible feat from a secure environment, Stockdale accomplished this in the midst of a deadly close-range fight. Over a three day span, T/Sgt Stockdale averaged 13 hours a day of uninterrupted air support, directing over 300 missions and 600,000 lbs of munitions.  This overwhelming firepower had bin Laden so shaken that he notated a last will and testament, found later by US forces. For his incredible skill in the midst of the deadly fight, T/Sgt Michael Stockdale was awarded the Silver Star.

This episode is a re-record of a podcast that was lost due to technical difficulties deep into social distancing, and appropriately is about the 2015 remaster of the 2002 remake of the 1996 game Resident Evil. Supremely confusing. This classic survival horror game by Capcom was given a graphical upgrade and improved controls. We touch on how Jill found her dream job, how atmospheric fixed camera angles can be, tiny inventory management and the downside of having your heart on the outside of your chest.

08APR2003: Serving as a Close Combat Controller with the Air Force's 24th Special Tactics Squadron, SSgt Scott Sather was working with the Army's 75th Ranger Regimental Reconnaissance Detachment during the initial invasion of Iraq. Serving as the key link between ground troops and American airpower, SSgt Sather's job was to provide targeting information in support of a few critical missions. First, his unit was tasked with capturing any HVTs attempting to flee Iraq west into Syria. Second, he was responsible for creating a diversion convincing the Iraqi military that an American division was approaching Baghdad from the west. The intent of the diversion was to fix Iraqi units in and around Baghdad so the main thrust of the American advance could push up from the south. SSgt Sather and his unit were successful and on April 6th American units entered Baghdad as many Iraqi forces stayed to the west expecting an assault that never came. On April 8th, as US forces shifted to assault Tikrit,just north of Baghdad, SSgt Scott Sather was killed at the age of 29. SSgt Sather would be awarded the Purple Heart and Bronze Star posthumously.

Following his childhood dream to serve in the military, Zachary Rhyner joined the Air Force in 2004. He knew he wanted to serve in an elite group, that would no doubt face challenges in combat. Rhyner enlisted with the goal of becoming a combat controller. After a grueling two-and-a-half-year selection and training process, he became a special tactics combat controller. He would soon go on to serve with a Special Operations team, seeing their fare share of combat in Afghanistan. It was on one of those missions that he and his team would face extremely daunting challenges, fighting to their objective up 60-foot cliffs against a very well-defended enemy force. Rhyner's actions during that particular battle would earn him the Air Force Cross - the second highest military award that can be given to a member of the United States Air Force. During his sixth deployment, Rhyner would sustain injuries that ended his military career, but were the catalyst for him to continue a legacy of service with the help of the Pat Tillman Foundation.

Welcome back traveler to the dark times of the live action Resident Evil films. This time our team brave Paul W.S. Anderson's take on the Raccoon City incident in the form of Resident Evil: Apocalypse. Directed by Alexander Witt and produced and scribed by Anderson, this thrilling adventure sees Alice (Milla Jovovich) fight hordes of flesh eating undead, rabid zombie dogs, and some bloke in a rubber suit cos-playing as the Nemesis. Fan favourite Jill Valentine (Sienna Guillory) is also here alongside Carlos Oliveria (Oded Fehr). This is a stunningly faithful adaptation featuring the Special Tactics and Rescue Squad (Service anyone?), Charles Ashford (who?) and Nikolai Ginoveaf (who is now a good guy catching Jill's eye). Join Rombie, Neptune, Batman, STARS Tyrant, a returning George Trevor, and special guest Sonny Bauer for this deep-rooted analysis of this thrilling adventure. Again, Neptune is more excited than he really should be, Ty surprises himself with certain shots and Rombie as usual is the voice of common sense. He also full of praise for Anderson's use of little electronic maps to transition between scenes. Please enjoy and remember only a complete idiot would spend £25 on these films. Thankfully none of us are that stupid...
