Summary

On this episode of the Ones Ready podcast we sit down with Kris Tomes who is a Pararescueman, prior INDOC instructor, and now a Special Operations Recruiter. After speaking with Kris, it's clear that he epitomizes motivation and he's absolutely the type of person I would have wanted to have as an A&S instructor. He's motivational, positive, and wants to see you succeed. Kris touches on some of the requirements to join, character traits he's seen that are successful and also what not to do, what motivates him, and some frequently asked questions of candidates. It was a pleasure speaking with him and if you're not motivated after this episode, there is no hope for you. We promise you don't want to skip through any of this episode! Please enjoy the episode and give us your feedback. If you liked it and feel so inclined, please leave us a review. If we didn’t answer your questions, please let us know, and thank you for your support!
