For our 100th episode of After Dark on the Iron Sights Podcast, we welcome a special forces operator, "Johnny". We've protected his privacy by disguising his voice. Johnny shares his unique journey to joining the specialized unit he's currently a part of, offering insights into the challenges and experiences along the way.Our discussion covers various aspects of Johnny's career, including the cultural dynamics within the specialized unit and its operations within the broader military branch. As we go on, you'll learn the importance of recruiting, personal responsibility within the field, and the realities of the job.While acknowledging the limitations in the discussion due to privacy concerns, I hope that this episode can encourage others in similar fields to share their experiences while maintaining a level of security and privacy.Episode Sponsor:BioProtein Technology: https://bioproteintech.com/For $30 off your order use code "IRONSIGHTS" at checkout.BioPro+ can potentially help to improve balance hormones, increase sex drive, improves insulin sensitivity, and produce increases of mitochondria and nucleic acids to create a total system modulator.
