Chad is a former Force Recon Marine and DoD Contractor with eight deployments to Afghanistan as part of a Joint Special Operations Command (JSOC) Task Force. After overcoming his personal battles with PTSD and nearly becoming a veteran suicide statistic, Chad founded the Mighty Oaks Foundation, a leading non-profit, serving the active duty and military veteran communities with highly successful faith-based combat trauma and resiliency programs. Chad is also a highly skilled MMA fighter, attaining the rank of 6th best in the world at his prime. He also tells us the unfiltered truth about Afghanistan, and how he founded his non-profit, Save Our Allies, to do something about it. I hope you enjoy this episode!
