Show Notes
(Previously Aired on 5/19/2020) Andy Kubik spent 15 years in USAF Special Operations. He was stationed in theatres like Bosnia, Afghanistan, and Iraq. But his six overseas deployments as a combat controller and rescue man took its toll on his mental health and family. He talks about the heroic actions on November 23, 2001, that led to a Silver Star award. Substance abuse, PTSD, and TBI are mentioned; and the relationship with his son is highlighted with host Jim Fausone.
