Good. Nick? Yep. How's it going, sir? Brandon? Yes, sir.
Cody?
Nice to meet you. And then Eli. Eli. All right. Nice to meet you. My name's Rob. How are you guys doing? Rob. Doing good.
Pretty good.
Yeah. CDQC down in Key West and then Halo down in, I went to school down in Marana.
So I was the special troops battalion sergeant there at Fort Benning, Georgia. We had a reconnaissance company. So that was, you know, our element. It was kind of in charge of green face recce. So I went to school with them. to be able to participate with them in training. And then I went to CDQC or dive school when I was a young sergeant.
I was up grading lanes on EIB, if any of you guys have seen that. So I was grading the NBC station. They walked up there. They were like, hey, who wants to go to preschool? But I'm like, I would much rather do that than sit up here and grade lanes all day. So that was the worst three weeks and three days of my life, is going to dive school.
Explain why it was absolutely... Well, so first group, you don't actually drown. It's a shallow water blackout. But first group... You don't actually drown. You don't actually drown. It just feels like it.
No, that's not true. The buildup of carbon dioxide in your blood kind of clicks your brain out. But... During pre-scuba, you know, you do a lot of underwater work and, you know, there's very, very controlled, very observed. But sometimes you just, you know, that the little tunnel gets tighter and tighter and then somebody picks you up out of the water.
That's the commercial self-reflection. Yeah. So it was a very hard school, very physically fit, physically enduring school. It has a purpose in the Army. The Special Operations Forces that use Combat Diver as a job, which I did not use it solely as a job, they have a very hard mission in the Army, and I very much respect what they do.
For me, it was open water swims because you do up to 3,000 meters of open water spinning on top of the water. I started out and I was— You get a little closer to the mic. Yeah, I felt like I was pretty fast, but I was always in swim team last. So everybody that dropped to the course, you ended up getting paired with somebody new every day. So I always had a new partner.
Every single day, it seemed like I always had a new partner, and I couldn't get used to build that bond. You dug. That was probably the worst part of it.
Yeah, finning in open water. So it was pretty neat.
No, no, no. I'm not that old.
Oh, absolutely not. No, I spent a significant amount of time in the tunnel. I was told that I fly like a potato chip or a piece of cardboard.
So I will say I spent a significant amount of time in a tunnel, but I learned a lot, and it was kind of one of those things that you learn in school, and you can see how it applies out into the forest.
That's the greatest thing in the world.
Oh, no. Flying in a tunnel is like one of the funnest things to do.
