In this episode, I sit down with Josh, a Navy Corpsman who deployed with the 13th MEU and later to Afghanistan with 2/5 . We talk about the lead-up to his first deployment, life on the float, and what it was really like hitting the ground in Helmand Province. Josh opens up about the brutal realities of combat, the things he saw, the casualties he treated, and the heavy emotions you have to lock down to keep pushing through the mission. Raw, honest, and no filter. If you’ve ever wondered what it takes to stay focused when everything’s on the line, this one’s for you.
