https://www.directactions.ca/ https://www.facebook.com/DirectActions https://www.instagram.com/direct_action_combat/ This was a very cool experience for us, and something we're hoping to do more of moving forward, speaking with men and women of the armed forces from around the world. It won't always be a discussion about tactics and deployments, as you'll hear in this interview with Andy, but we are looking to explore the experiences as a whole from other operators. This is really our first online pod, so the look and feel may still change, but we sincerely hope you enjoy it - and please, if you aren't already, give Andy a follow! https://www.instagram.com/andystumpf212 Direct Action Combat is PROUDLY Presented By: Gray Fox Strategic https://grayfoxstrategic.ca/ Use Promo Code: DA10 for 10% off your purchase!
