Brandon Tseng

It's like those guys train up with, you're a new guy, right?

You earn your way onto that mission.

And I was a fresh Navy SEAL with a month and a half of, you know, at the team.

And so, no, I didn't get to go with them.

Like, right, a couple of times, my platoon commander, my troop commander, like Brandon, like, yeah, we're not, we're not DMNAC, right?

We're not DEVGRU.

Like, we get those guys only go out at night, right?

Why are we going out during the day, guys?

They're like, look, we got to seize terrain.

This is our mission.

So fortunately, on my deployment to Afghanistan with my platoon, we had a ton of air assets.

Um, so that remained the same, but that was a very unique thing for my, uh, for like our CLL in Afghanistan.

But it wasn't, it wasn't to the point where I think it was, it was just part of that learning curve.

Right.

I had seen what, uh, you know, the top tier was doing and then it's like, okay, like, look, it's a different mission is kind of like what it was at the end of the day.

It's not that it's just like, you have to solve that mission differently than what DevGuru was doing with their mission set.

So understanding that was, I think like, you know, very quick to understand that when like, look, like this isn't, we have a different mission than DevGuru.

This is how, how we have to execute said mission.

Where did you go?

Where was your first deployment?
