GRP 22- On this episode we have two special guest back on the show in Tu Lam from Ronin Tactics who is a 20-year veteran of Army Special Forces, and Mike Stahl a MACV-SOG Green Beret who served in Vietnam. Mike Glover the co host of the show is also back on this episode, and he discusses what its like working with indigenous forces which is a specialty of Army Special Forces Green Berets. Mike Stahl and Tu Lam also discuss working with indigenous forces, as well as the realties of what war is like. Below is an excerpt from Mike Stahl:\n\n\u201cWar is fucking hell, I\u2019m sorry there\u2019s nothing nice about it. The best thing in war is to get it over quickly, and sometimes its pretty dam brutal. Until you\u2019ve been shot at, and doing some shooting back, until you\u2019ve been in that crucible you don\u2019t know if you\u2019ve got what it takes or not.\u201d\n\nBelow is an excerpt from Tu Lam:\n\n\n\u201cIn war there\u2019s a smell, there\u2019s a taste to it, there\u2019s a feel that you can\u2019t describe. I tell ya man if I don\u2019t have to serve another day in war I\u2019ll be a happy man. Musashi Myamoto wrote The Book of 5 Rings in a Buddhist cave, and he said one thing that always stuck with me and he said \u201cYou should fight as if you already died\u201d. There\u2019s a certain point where you still think, but your body reacts, and your kind of in an out of body experience. Rounds are shot, shots are fired you need to do and react. You need to take that initiative away from the enemy otherwise they will control that situation.\u201d\n\nIf you have any questions about anything on the episode, or want to contact us send an email to podcast@globalrecon.net\n\n--- \n\nSupport this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/globalrecon/support
