    Bring Kortney back on for a part 2...she has an interesting perspective & I'd enjoy hearing more about her changes & her perspective going forward & how she thinks she's changed or deepened after her experiences

    My son is currently in Washington at SERE school has a degree from North Carolina STATE and celebrated his 30th birthday escaping from a chopper fuselage while submerged in water! He was born for this career with his talent from God. His reason for doing this is his love for outdoors and his desire to teach others,his mother,grandmother and aunts were teachers. He was an artillary seargent in the North Carolina Army National Guard for 8 years before deciding to be a SERE Specialist. While in SanAntonio he was an honor grad and received the cadre award.

    If you have been in the military > 6 months post-boot/basic, you are a teacher/instructor, whether you know it or not, whether it's formalized or not. I teach trauma care, in the biz 30 years. You find that passion and you fuel it.

    Great episode. Knowing and understanding a subject is one thing, but the ability to explain the what, where, why.. Teaching that to others... Is a gift. Especially in an area or subject that is vitally important.

    Aside from smoking the IFT, have you guys heard any recommendations on how to distinguish yourself from everyone else when submitting a retraining package for SERE? Currently working on figuring oht the process but want to make sure im competitive as possible before pulling the trigger. Thanks and love the videos you guys put out!

      Well it’s stuff you can’t fix at this point. Were you an amazing A1C? SrA? Did you win awards, seek leadership early, get great EPB’s? Is your packet posting in spelling, grammar, and is it in the exact order specified with all necessary items? All that goes a long way; there’s no magic words or thjngs the MFMs look for you to say. Correct, orderly, precise, and follow directions.
