Interview #2 with Author Kirk 'Tadpole' Spradley, Global War on Terror Veteran

GRAPHIC CONTENT WARNING! This interview contains the use of coarse language and graphic descriptions of combat and trauma. Viewer discretion is advised.
In this second interview with Kirk, we start off with a shoutout and going back to the train wreck mentioned in the first interview, where Kirk describes how Force Recon was involved in the body recovery effort at the Big Bayou Canot Rail Accident. From there Kirk and I dive into 9/11 and he ended up working as a contractor for Blackwater and being deployed to Iraq for his first tour. There Kirk describes working with various units in the Special Operations community and how he described his tours as filled with luck. Kirk describes coming home and the event that transpired to his first mental breakdown and he ended up back in Iraq operating in the Wild West, the city of Ramadi. From there, Kirk describes his first combat experience in the city and we discuss close-quarters combat tactics and fighting in the urban environment.
