The Paddles Factor and LSO Culture, with legendary Marine Corps LSO, Maj Brad ”Barf” Byers

 

Can you remember the rules to live by? Or how about ECAT fly away? Well if you’ve ever landed a jet on an aircraft carrier, this episode is for you. You know what its like to be just a few feet from death on a regular basis, and can laugh about it like it’s no big deal. On this episode we break down the Paddles culture and what it means to be an LSO. We talk stories, feats of strength, history, and scary moments that we will never forget. I welcome back my LSO mentor and great American “Barf” Byers. We discuss the perks of being a paddles, his experience and highlights as an LSO school instructor, and how he connects “the Paddles culture” to every day life. Then we finish it all off with a fun little game called “how to throw Barf under the bus”. Enjoy!
