Come away a better version of yourself for listening to this amazing human being. Even with my limited interaction with Nick, he's inspired me to be a better version of John. Until next week, take care of yourself and each other, God Bless, Johnhttps://www.teammchn.comhttps://www.linkedin.com/in/nick-lavery-a691871ba?lipi=urn%3Ali%3Apage%3Ad_flagship3_profile_view_base_contact_details%3BrRTvGiNITaG8dmFlRtAPVQ%3D%3DChief Warrant Officer Two (CW2) Nick LaveryNick, born and raised in Massachusetts, is an active-duty member of The United States Army Special Forces.

The United States Army Special Forces command teams are composed of a commissioned officer, a warrant officer and senior non-commissioned officer. A model has evolved over time and is tributed with being a key component to success on the battlefield of yesterday and today.To break down just Army Special Forces balances strategy, experience and teamwork, Creator and Host Fran Racioppi sat down with Command Sergeant Major Dave Waldo and Command Chief Warrant Officer Felix Mosqueda; two of the three senior-most leaders of First Special Forces Command. From atop the Normandy Resistance Monument in Saint Marie Dumont, we broke down what it means to be a Green Beret and how the mission has evolved from the Jedburgh Teams of D-Day to today's Operational Detachments. CSM Waldo and Chief Mosqueda shared their priorities and vision for Army Special Forces, how the regiment is adapting in the post Global War on Terror environment, the misconception of the Special Forces mission and how they are tackling the recruiting and manning challenges needed for the next battlefield; whether that be against a peer, near peer or terrorist adversary.

The missions of our two organizations are the same and the time has finally come to take things to the next level in the new year.Project Manager Joe Rhodes has organized a highly successful sporting clays fundraiser for several years in the St. Louis area. On April 29th, 2023, the Oregon Sportsman's Club in Oregon Wisconsin will host a similar shoot with all proceeds going back to the Kniestedt Foundation. Historically holding only archery events, it made sense to team up with Rhodes and his expertise to bring further awareness to both of our programs and bring a new crowd to the HHAUSA family.Joe also talks about the continued success of the hunting trips they put on each fall as well as an upcoming bison hunt in the state of Wyoming. Gifted a coveted tag from a longtime donor, female Veteran Channing Spradling hopes to harvest a buffalo in January and we are eager to hear all about that hunt.Rhodes, a full-time teacher by day, discusses the grueling MR340, a cross state endurance race on the Missouri River spanning 340 miles. Completing the journey for a third straight year and raising funds for the foundation, Joe is still waiting for a partner to volunteer to make the trek with him again next summer.One of the best parts of our conversation was when Joe talked at length about his nights on the water, giving him the ability to unpack his thoughts his thoughts in the dark solitude. Coming back a changed and better man each time, I almost felt like I was with Joe as he shared what a meaningful experience it is along with his ever growing gratitude for all those who serve.   We wrap up chatting about how rewarding it is as civilians to work with the Veteran and First Responder community. I feel like I don't say it enough but it is truly a blessing to serve those who serve our country, protect our streets and keep our families safe. We owe a great debt to these men and women and are thankful for likeminded groups like the Kniestedt Foundation wanting to give back and make a difference.For more information, visit www.kniestedt.org and follow them on Facebook, Instagram and YouTube.For more information about HHAUSA and how you can support our mission, visit www.hhausa.orgTo purchases HHAUSA hats, shirts, challenge coins and tumblers, visit www.hhasports.com

This is Part Two of a two-part podcast. Host Tim K. sits down in Portales, New Mexico with a legend of MAC V SOG, Mike Stahl. The Studies and Observations Group (also known as SOG, MACSOG, and MACV-SOG) was a top-secret, joint unconventional warfare task force created on January 24th, 1964 by the Joint Chiefs of Staff as a subsidiary command of the Military Assistance Command, Vietnam (MACV). The unit would eventually consist primarily of personnel from the United States Army Special Forces, the United States Navy SEALs, the United States Air Force (USAF), the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA), and elements of the United States Marine Corps Force Reconnaissance units. The mission of MAC V SOG was to execute an intensified program of harassment, diversion, political pressure, the capture of prisoners, physical destruction, acquisition of intelligence, generation of propaganda, and diversion of resources, against the Democratic Republic of Vietnam. Throughout Part Two, Mike discusses his time in leaving the military and the difficulty of transitioning from one of the most specialized units in the world to a civilian world that despised him.

It was an absolute honor to have retired Master Sergeant John Martin on the show. John is a 25 year combat veteran and medic (18D) with the United States Army Special Forces, the coveted "Green Berets". We had a great long podcast, doing a deep dive into his long career starting with the 82nd Airborne and on to the Army Special Forces as a combat medic. The last 30 minutes we dug deep into what John calls the "Hidden Wounds" that he suffered through, TBI and PTS and the struggle that goes with these combat injuries that you cannot see. John now teaches medical training through Lineage Defense, lineagedefense.com, if you want bad ass medic training and TACMED class, check out his August 1st class. I can tell you from his first hand training of me, there is a reason he was the medic that taught the future special forces medics. Enjoy!

Life throws many things our way. Some welcomed. Some not. We crave control over the details of our existence, but, the truth is, we never know what will happen next—if plans will take shape or be derailed. For Jeff Smith, upon joining the United States Army Special Forces at the ripe age of 17, a certain outlook on living was instilled within in him. This mindset guided Jeff decision by decision, from earning multiple degrees, getting married, learning to fly helicopters, and everything in between. He, like most of us when we're young, never fully knew what his next move would be. But, he never failed to stay prepared, curious, and searching. By doing that, according to Jeff, and having fun along the way, fulfillment is always within reach. When forces try to knock you off course, to wreak havoc on your sense of order, improvise, adapt, and overcome. --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/journeymenpdcst/support

Episode 10 - Snake Eater - Part 1 This week I sat down with guest-host Shannon and our guest, "Snake." Snake and I have been friends since we were teenagers, and he is more like a brother to me than anything else. He's also a former law-enforcement officer, and an active operational member of the United States Army Special Forces community. We sat down and talked about preparing for the Special Forces Assessment and Selection (SFAS) course, Airborne School, jumping out of airplanes, "sky sharking," Small Unit Tactics, killing Baghdad rats, Survival Evasion Resistance and Escape (SERE) training, learning a new language, and defying the uniform standard.  This is Part 1 of a two-part episode with Snake, so stay tuned for Part 2 in the next week or so. I will no longer be doing weekly releases, as my schedule doesn't support the short turnaround. Don't worry, I'm not going to make you wait as long as Dan Carlin, but the episodes won't be on a weekly clock any more.

Patrick Mather is a former United States Army Special Forces operative with the Green Berets and a West Point graduate. He is currently a special agent in the United States Diplomatic Security Service. After serving in the military, Patrick has taken multiple extended trips into some of the most remote areas in the U.S. by himself. We talk about the survival skills he acquired in his special forces training and during his tours of duty in Columbia and Afghanistan. We also talk extensively about his experiences living in the wilderness alone, the affects this has on the psyche, and the lessons learned from extended time away from the trappings of modern civilization. At the end of every episode I usually ask the guest where people can find them and support their work, Patrick recommended the Special Operations Warrior Foundation, a non-profit that provides free education and support for the children of Special Forces members who were killed or severely wounded during their military service. If you are able to, please support their work.  Links discussed in episode Army Survival Training Animal found Afghanistan  Outward Bound Minnesota Bob Marshall Wilderness Continental Divide Trail

SFC Matt Tardio is a retired Army Special Forces soldier and law enforcement officer. Tardio served as an Engineer Sergeant in the United States Army Special Forces. In addition to completing the Special Forces Qualification Course (Q Course) and follow-on engineer training, Tardio is also sniper qualified and a graduate of Ranger School, among others.Tardio gives a good breakdown of his experience in Ranger school before we talk in general about his three deployments, two of which were to Afghanistan in support of Operation Enduring Freedom. Special Forces soldiers normally deploy to train and advise an indigenous force and we go through some of how that was applied to the Afghan National Army and villages they operated around.I really enjoyed this episode and look forward to sitting down again with Matt to talk more about his career.

“You’ll find there is room for us all” In May 1988, at the age of 20, McVeigh graduated from the U.S. Army Infantry School at Fort Benning, Georgia. While in the military, McVeigh used much of his spare time to read about firearms, sniper tactics, and explosives.[16] McVeigh was reprimanded by the military for purchasing a "White Power" T-shirt at a Ku Klux Klan protest against black servicemen who wore "Black Power" T-shirts around a Military installation, primarily Army. He was a top-scoring gunner with the 25mm cannon of the Bradley Fighting Vehicles used by his 1st Infantry Division. He was stationed at Fort Riley, Kansas, before being deployed on Operation Desert Storm. Speaking of his experience in Kuwait in an interview before his execution, documented in McVeigh's authorized biography American Terrorist: Timothy McVeigh & the Tragedy at Oklahoma City, he stated he decapitated an Iraqi soldier with cannon fire on his first day in the war and celebrated. He said he was later shocked to be ordered to execute surrendering prisoners and to see carnage on the road leaving Kuwait City after U.S. troops routed the Iraqi army. McVeigh received several service awards, including the Bronze Star Medal, National Defense Service Medal, Southwest Asia Service Medal, Army Service Ribbon, and the Kuwaiti Liberation Medal. McVeigh aspired to join the United States Army Special Forces . After returning from the Gulf War, he entered the selection program, but washed out on the second day of the 21-day assessment and selection course for the Special Forces. McVeigh decided to leave the Army and was honorably discharged in 1991. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Timothy_McVeigh Editorial -Chase- Public Access America There comes a point I think when it should be mentioned, public access America does not believe violence and anger are ever the solution. We were created in and of the ideals that information is the real power. That being said, the frustration with situations in which a group, race, ANY, are singled out and treated with disregard of laws should be held accountable. We the people have a power that is being hidden away from us by magician politicians that believe and maybe rightfully that we can be silenced. Your silence is their victory, as the writer of this I think McVeigh was right in believing that the attacks at Ruby ridge and Waco went horribly wrong. His shock and outrage were a normal reaction, I do believe as an opinion that his actions were also horribly incorrect. Violence in anyway only provokes violence and justifies the divide.

Episode 78 The A Team pilot episode. The A-Team is an American action-adventure television series that ran on NBC from 1983 to 1987 about former members of a fictitious United States Army Special Forces unit. The members, after being court-martialed "for a crime they didn't commit", escaped from military prison and, while still on the run, worked as soldiers of fortune.  

This show is dedicated to: Robert James Miller killed January 25, 2008, of Company A, 3rd Battalion, 3rd Special Forces Group (Airborne), was a United States Army Special Forces soldier who posthumously received the Medal of Honor at a White House ceremony on October 6, 2010. Defending the Republic with Annie "The Radio Chick" and "Cool" Mike is an ongoing discussion of recent events, issues and the upcoming elections. Special Guest: Congressman Mark Sanford (SC-1) Mark Sanford represents the 1st District of S. ., which covers the “Lowcountry” of the state, and was sworn into the 113th Congress after winning a special election in May 2013. He first learned the themes of hard work and frugality growing up with two brothers and a sister on their family farm near Beaufort, SC. He has brought these lessons to Columbia, S.C., as Governor and Washington, D.C., as a U.S. Representative, where his record as a fiscal reformer and budget cutter is incontestable. As the 115th Governor of S. C., serving from 2003 until 2011, he accomplished a long list of firsts, among them the first cut to the marginal income tax rate in South Carolina history, the largest recurring tax cut in state history, the first of its kind tort reform, the first in workers comp reform, and the first in the nation statewide charter school reform. It's a battle of Conservative values and principles in defense of our Republic!

Autopilot 06 - The A-TEAM The A-Team is an American action adventure television series about a fictional group of ex-United States Army Special Forces personnel who work as soldiers of fortune, while on the run from the Army after being branded as war criminals for a "crime they didn't commit". The A-Team was created by writers and producers Frank Lupo and Stephen J. Cannell (who also collaborated on Wiseguy, Riptide, and Hunter) at the behest of Brandon Tartikoff, NBC's Entertainment president. Despite being thought of as mercenaries by the other characters in the show, the A-Team always acted on the side of good and helped the oppressed. The show ran for five seasons on the NBC television network, from January 23, 1983 to December 30, 1986 (with one additional, previously unbroadcast episode shown on March 8, 1987), for a total of 98 episodes.
