On this episode, I am joined by my special guest, retired Navy Seal Jacob Bachmann. Jacob spent 10 years of his life in the Seal Teams. During that time, he had multiple combat deployments. It was during Jacob's second deployment to Afghanistan, his Seal Team (Team 4) lost Petty Officer 2nd Class Matthew Kantor. Kantor was shot and killed in action on November 1, 2012, while providing suppressive fire for his Seal Team brothers. Kantor's actions that day saved the lives of all his brothers. In order to keep Kantor's memory and sacrifice alive, Jacob is on a mission to raise $10,000 dollars to donate to the Navy Seal Foundation. On January 14, 2024, Jacob and his fellow seals will take part in a 3.5 mile open water swim in Tampa Bay to help aid the Navy Seal Foundation in it's mission to "provide critical support for the warriors, veterans and and families of Naval Special Warfare."
