Army Ranger K9 Police Officer Jon Lindsey Part One | Mike Ritland Podcast Episode 150

Officer Jon Lindsey is what you'd call a 'dog guy'. He's also a husband, a father, and a veteran - he served as a Multi-Purpose Canine Handler while a member of the 75th Ranger Regiment. After the Army, he took up at the Savannah Police Academy in Georgia, where he trained police K9 prospects, until he officially joined the department in 2019. Since then, it's been a wild ride serving the good people of Savannah, but it hasn't all been sunshine and rainbows. Let's meet the man. ---------- Chapters: 00:00 - Intro 02:44 - Vacation 08:43 - Fireworks over Disneyland 13:55 - R.A.S.P. - Ranger Assessment and Selection Program 23:40 - Expectation VS Reality 34:39 - Ranger School 49:32 - A PFC with a Ranger Tab 59:46 - Live Contact in Bagram 01:13:24 - Home for the Week 01:16:34 - K9 Oriented 01:23:32 - A Dog named Witty ---------- Support Jon Lindsey - Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/j_chris_l19 Support the Georgia Police K9 Foundation: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/georgiapolicek9foundation ---------- Sponsors: Black Buffalo Go to blackbuffalo.com/discount/MIKEDROP and use promo code Mike Drop at checkout for 15% off your first order!
