So I thought it was a great deployment.

You generally have to do two or three years as a lieutenant or platoon commander, and then they'll take you just when you're about to become a captain.

But there was an SAS guy who deployed with my battalion.

We went to the Solomon Islands for a peacekeeping mission in 2003.

Yeah.

And I was talking to him.

I think I was 24.

Yeah.

Pretty young.

Yeah.
