Scott Daniels proudly served in the US Army for 25 years 6 months and 13 days before he retired honorably as a 1st Sgt. His last job in the Army was spent being a Counter Intelligence Special Agent, you know the guys that are always doing the nefarious stuff in the television shows. Well we got to sit down with Scott and hear some cool stories about his time not only as a special agent but how he started his career in the 82nd Airborne. Same as your host Brandon McGuire.
In the second half of this episode we explore the massive changes and overhauls that have occured in the US Army. Scott served in a huge transitory time. Starting his career in 1985 and retiring in 2011 he witnessed the Army through the first Gulf War, the War on Terrorism, the liberation of Iraq and the war in Afghanistan. All the multiple uniform changes, weapon system upgrades and in his experience the change in discipline across the board. All covered so make sure to listen until the end. That's when the stories started to fly and we realized that Scott was going to have to come back for a follow up episode.
Brandon makes a huge announcement at the end of the episode that we are all really excited about!
