About this episode
There are times when I have the opportunity to sit down with some extraordinary men and am routinely humbled by their stories. This was absolutely one of those times. Mike Day is a retired Navy SEAL who was shot 27 times on one mission, and managed to kill the 4 insurgents who shot him, then walked himself to the medical helicopter. This is one of the most remarkable stories I've been honored to be told first hand, and one that I know you guys will appreciate. ---------- Table of Timestamps: Breaking the Ice & Bullet Wounds - 1:24 Growing up Tough & Trouble at Home- 5:54 Out of School & Into the Military - 22:53 Out of a Plane & Into Team 8- 40:39 2006, Iraq, & Fallujah - 54:01 Shot 27 Times in One Firefight - 1:05:35 Evac to Germany & Coming Home - 1:28:54 Up on the Saddle & Back Into Jumpschool- 1:40:37 Retired, Retired? - 1:48:11 Trauma Builds Resilience (In Conclusion) - 1:56:54 ---------- To learn more, visit Mike Day's website at www.perfectlywounded.com Preorder Mike’s book, ‘Perfectly Wounded,’ coming June 9th at https://amzn.to/2WjIUlA ---------- Support our sponsors: Origin Labs | www.originmaine.com/origin-labs | @ORIGIN USA Bubs Naturals | www.bubsnaturals.com | @bubsnaturals Apparel, accessories, protection dogs, and online training at www.trikos.com Online dog training | https://teamdog.pet Team Dog Facebook | @TeamDog Training Books, Blog, Media and more from Mike Ritland at www.mikeritland.com This show is part of the Spreaker Prime Network, if you are interested in advertising on this podcast, contact us at https://www.spreaker.com/show/5531509/advertisement Learn more about your ad choices.
