Scroll down to episode 31 Israeli Special Operators, Agilite Tactical, Terror in Orlando GRP 31- On this episode myself, and Special Forces Major Rusty Bradley (ret) discuss the attack in Orlando, as well as some solutions for dealing with this threat of Global Terrorism. On the show for the first time are my friends from Agilite Tactical a company comprised of former Israeli commando’s who create innovative new gear used by the IDF, and Special Op’s units around the world. Below is an excerpt from the episode. John: Ellie you served during the second Intifada what exactly was that for people who won’t know? Ellie Isaacson: The second Intifada was a period between the end of 2000 to 2003. It started off with a series of terrorist attacks, and had gotten to a stage where it was literally daily suicide bombings, daily shootings. I joined up in November 2000, and I remember everything just kicked off in a big way. One of the major incidents was two Israeli reserve soldiers took a wrong turn into an Arab village. They were beaten to death by a mob, and thrown out of a window for the world to see. I remember being back in the UK about a month before my service, and just watching this happen and seeing everyone going nuts. Within two years we were given a mission to capture one of those guys who performed the lynching and killed those Israeli soldiers, so it really came full circle.

We do not know what kind of people we truly are until the moment before our deaths. As death comes to embrace you, you will realize what you are.

“When a person dies, he disappears, along with his past, current lifestyle, and his future. Many people die in missions and wars. They die easily and in surprisingly simple ways. Those who died had hopes and dreams, but everyone has something as important as those: parents, siblings, friends, lovers; people who are important to you, they trust and help each other. The bond between the people important to you ever since birth and the string that binds them becomes thicker and stronger as time goes by... It's beyond reason. Those bound to you by that string will do that because it is important.” ― Masashi Kishimoto Search Global Recon Podcast on ITunes Sound cloud, or click the link in my bio.

#Repost @global_surgical_medical_group ・・・ ⚠️ warning graphic ⚠️ GSMSG orthotrauma surgeons pulling metal shrapnel out of the thigh and then reconstructing the femur of a victim of ISIS daisy chained IEDs near Mosul. For the quiet professionals/SOF veterans out there and MDs/surgeons interested in medical-surgical missions to various conflict theaters, apply on our website. . . Just some house keeping items. First, we get a lot of questions about where we work exactly. For obvious OPSEC we generally don't show where we are working as you'll notice most photos are indoors or don't show the horizon or terrain if outdoors or are displayed long after the team has departed that area if they show more detail than that. It's generally considered exceedingly poor form/amateur hour to live broadcast your location in an active AO. Second issue, for those that are interested in applying who are not medically qualified or military veterans, while we thank you for your support and your enthusiasm, there are plenty of other groups who take non-qualified individuals if you are just looking for your adventure time in Iraq. You can look through our previous posts to see what we are looking for. Lastly, we are down to the last 10 black Iraq GSMSG performance shirts that we are going to be selling to the public on our website . Those won't be available any more once the last 10 are gone. 20% off with promo code "IGRecon" for our support from our brothers over @igrecon and for the future public shirt design that will come out at some point, we want to thank the folks at @556_productions . #sofmed #sof #medicine #surgery #surgeon #ortho #trauma #veteran #doc #doctor #fixyou #army #navy#airforce #marines #marsoc #navyseals #GSMSG #GlobalRecon

There is something to be learned from a rainstorm. When meeting with a sudden shower, you try not to get wet and run quickly along the road. But doing such things as passing under the eaves of houses, you still get wet. When you are resolved from the beginning, you will not be perplexed, though you will still get the same soaking. This understanding extends to everything. -Hagakure: The Secret Wisdom of the Samurai Search Global Recon Podcast on ITunes, or click the link in my bio.

What's this? Just my friend and co-host of the podcast hanging out with the Queen of England. #Repost @altern8rv ・・・ So this was kind of a big deal yesterday - One of the proudest moments of my life. Her Majesty "Are you still a medic?" Me "No longer serving Ma'am, as strange as it sounds I'm now an exhibit here" That's the smile I got back yesterday 🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧 I was presented to the Queen, Prince Philip and the Duke of Kent at the Royal opening of the new National Army museum. The place is amazing and I was surprised to learn that they have also used one of my book quotes, this sitting alongside quotes from soldiers of the Great Wars. #missioncritical #queen #warriors #battleworn #royals #british #BritishArmy #thenationalarmymuseum #combatmedic #combatproven #army #soldier #GlobalRecon #GlobalReconPodcast

Gazing through the telescopic sight of his M24 rifle, Staff Sgt Jim Gilliland, leader of Shadow sniper team, fixed his eye on the Iraqi insurgent who had just killed an American soldier. His quarry stood nonchalantly in the fourth-floor bay window of a hospital in battle-torn Ramadi, still clasping a long-barrelled Kalashnikov. Instinctively allowing for wind speed and bullet drop, Shadow's commander aimed 12 feet high. A single shot hit the Iraqi in the chest and killed him instantly. It had been fired from a range of 1,250 metres, well beyond the capacity of the powerful Leupold sight, accurate to 1,000 metres. "I believe it is the longest confirmed kill in Iraq with a 7.62mm rifle," said Staff Sgt Gilliland. He was visible only from the waist up. It was a one in a million shot. I could probably shoot a whole box of ammunition and never hit him again." All told, the 10-strong Shadow sniper team, attached to Task Force 2/69, has killed just under 200 in the same period and emerged as the US Army's secret weapon in Ramadi against the threat of the hidden Improvised Explosive Device (IED) or roadside bomb - the insurgency's deadliest tactic. On a wall are scrawled the words of Senator John McCain: "America is great not because of what she has done for herself but because of what she has done for others." Shadow Team’s success resulted from many factors. They had a good relationship with a trusting battalion commander, and they were allowed to operate with a minimum of second-guessing. An even greater factor was that this group of men generally respected and trusted each other. As soon as Shadow Team arrived in Ramadi, they carefully selected a hide site based on reports of insurgent activity. The team watched a car with four men pull up 60 meters from their hide. Two men quickly got out of the backseat and retrieved two IEDs from the trunk, burying them in a pile of garbage. When the two bombers got back in the car and closed the doors, the team opened fire and killed all four insurgents. #GlobalRecon #globalreconpodcast #Sniper

It's been 365 days since my father lost his battle with cancer. I've thought of him every single day. I wrote this shortly after he passed, and I still feel sadness, but death is apart of life. It's the one guarantee we all face. What you do from now until your dying day is what counts. Cycle of Life-When you lose someone close to you I think you experience different emotions, and depending on your mental make up it can have a positive, or negative effect. With the loss of my father I feel sadness, and there’s an emptiness that I feel will always exist. Often I catch myself stuck in a trance of sorts, that 1000-yard stare. The first few days were rough. I’m fortunate enough to have good people who support me, and to them I’m thankful. The day after he died one of my friends became a father, and just a few weeks’ prior another friend became a father. I’ve been looking through old pictures, and found some of me as a newborn with my pops. 28 years after those pics’ he passed. This is the cycle of life. A person dies, as another is brought into this world. This has given me clarity, and allowed me to understand what’s important in life. Life is short, and to spend it doing something you’re not passionate about, or to live in such a way that life just passes you by is simply a waste. Live hard, love hard, and pursue your goals with an unmatched level of tenacity and passion, and I promise you will be satisfied. Music in the soul can be heard by the universe. – Lao Tzu Tonight I raise my glass in honor of my old man, and to all of those we’ve lost.
