Yo, yo, yo, it's just me today. You've noticed that Trent probably does this a lot more than I do, or Aaron does, but we're both, all of us are trying to get better at it.

So you'll just have to bear with us while we, what we struggle through this and this and you're just dealing with me at least for this episode.

So nothing crazy to talk about really, but I didn't want to say thank you for subscribing, thank you for being a member, thank you for buying

merch off of our site, we really appreciate it, thank you for engaging with us in emails the

the dams the comments section we all appreciate it and it really we're doing

this because of you and because we want to get back to the communities that's the

whole reason why we started this thing.

So hopefully you're finding value of it.

I'm guessing since you're watching or listening,

you are finding value of it.

So you know our sponsors, Hoist, Drinkoist.com, promo code, one's ready, great hydration source

for you.

Got one right here actually. So the biggest thing I like about these is it's

clear. It doesn't have any of that dye crap in it. And it tastes great and it actually does the job. You can get it at any of your local

H.E. Safeways, commissaries, or you can order online and use a promo code when ready, but you don't have to.

You can just go find it out there on the mean streets of wherever you happen to be.

All right, so talk about something that I've seen numerous times throughout the years on social media and in discussions whenever we have kind of Q&As, not we but as an active duty do, having Q&As.

And that is beards.

I like beards.

I personally am a big fan of beards. I have had beards in the military,

especially when we're deployed to Afghanistan. I didn't have a beard. Did I have a beard in Iraq? No, I did not have a beard and I rock because I didn't really need to at least in terms of operationally wise. I did not need a beard. But Afghanistan pretty much pretty much every rotation except for maybe one I ended up having a beard I enjoy having a beard I would have a beard if I was out right now

I have worked with other countries that have had beards.
