Alright guys, this week's episode is for all of you out there who have ever dreamed or wanted to be part of the military special forces community.

On this episode, I have Lieutenant Colonel Heath Kernes. It was a mouthful and I did get very nervous introducing him on the show just because his name is so long.

But anyway, growing up as a kid, like that was like all I ever wanted to do. I wanted to be part of the special forces. I wanted to be a seal. I wanted to be Army Green Bray and I started looking into it.

And I actually did find a lot of great information in the Air Force because they have an attachment called the PJs which is the Paradescu.

So I drill him a lot on these questions and you can just tell like the excited kid version of myself is like really getting in there and answering or asking all these great questions.

So if you've ever had questions about these things like this is a great time to really get in there and listen up.

And also just like some of the details he gets to go over is just so cool and it's just it's amazing to be on this end of the microphone and be able to have someone like him just sitting across from me and be able to ask all these amazing questions.

So right now currently the Air Force is looking for more people to be part of these communities. So we're just kind of like talking about what's going on and what can you expect and all of the things that kind of encompass the life of special operations in the Air Force.

So if it is ever anything you've ever dreamed about doing or you're still thinking about doing it this is going to be a great episode if you don't want to do it or anything like that but you've always wanted to know more information about it.

This is going to be another great episode and there's really not a lot of great info out there about this community.

So it's going to be an amazing listen for you guys. I know for sure you guys are going to love it.

So when you guys do listen and you do love it make sure you tag me let me know.

Go ahead and quote your favorite parts or anything like that and yeah I'm so so excited for you guys listen to this. So here we go.

All right ladies and gentlemen still out here in Lake Tahoe and I am sitting down with Lieutenant Colonel Heath currents.

I got it. That's right. Oh man. That was a little bit stressful. So he is the man when it comes to the spec ops community and the Air Force and you guys are doing a lot of things that a lot of people do not know about.

So what what are some of like the I know everyone always talks about the seals being there like these huge huge moments like when Osama gets killed or when any of these other big things that are pop up in the news.

There's a lot of things pop up in the news and a lot of things don't pop up. But no matter what everyone always hears of like certain people and then you guys are the quiet professionals and no one ever hears about.

That's right. So are you guys there at every single moment all the time and it's just not there.

Yeah. So just about depending on what what level of special operations forces we're talking about.

But they almost always have an embedded support troop from either Air Force special operations. That's most often the form of combat controllers and pair of rescuements.

Then also tack tack P terminal Air Control Party personnel and we got special reconnaissance as well. So there's a whole there's like four to six different jobs all that fall under Air Force special operations.

And so a lot of the models you know since you know 9-11 and well before our guys have been attached with those other units and just generally the the ethos is just want to get there and get the job done.
