GRP 39- On for this episode are two guest who I had two different conversations with. The first guest is SGT Bryce Mahoney. SGT Mahoney served from 2001 until 2007. He served with the 3rd Battalion, 75th Ranger Regiment, and E. Co 51st Infantry LRS (Long Range Surveillance). SGT Mahoney holds a Purple Belt in Royce Gracie BJJ, and is a father of 3. We discuss combative systems, his time deployed in combat, and a little politics. \n\n\nThe second conversation I had is with Sikh Major Kamal Kalsi. Major Kalsi is a doctor, and entered the Army via a health Professions Scholarship Program. He comes from a long line of military service with members of his family serving in the Indian, British, and American militaries. Sikh\u2019s have a strong warrior ethos\u2019s, and history as warriors fighting oppression in they\u2019re history. Below is an excerpt from my conversation with SGT Mahoney.\n\nJohn Hendricks: Can you share a war story, or something that stood out to you during your time in the military?\n\nBryce Mahoney: Sound, and tradition, and things like that resonate. I was unfortunately present when Edmunds, and Stonesifer the first two Ranger casualties of the Global War on Terror were KIA. We were in Oman at this base. They got us all together, and brought they\u2019re caskets through the hanger that we were all in. To have those two caskets there, and all of us reciting the Ranger Creed, there was this echoing of the Ranger Creed that was so intense. It was so resonating. Anytime I hear the Creed I can visualize being in that hanger, looking at those two caskets, and realizing that whatever I do its going to be so that they\u2019re death\u2019s are not in vain. Its something that\u2019s stuck with me forever.\n\n--- \n\nSupport this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/globalrecon/support
