You got to have something that you want to do out there. You got to dip in. I do. Yeah.

Come on, man. Like, you guys told me you were coming in here. I'm not sitting in with the general officers to arrest that, you know. I take it out when I got to address certain parties, but I figured you guys were cool. I didn't see this in, you know what I'm saying? Like, a little nicotine light, nothing like that.

Yeah. So I started out in the Guard in 89. I spent about five years in the Guard before I came on active duty. I've been on active duty just over 30 years now.

Absolutely. So obviously, cycling is a super weird one. So I rode motorcycles for years. You know what I'm saying? That was my big thing. And then I went to Alaska, which is kind of a long, complicated story. Basically, like, 05, I was at Fort Benning. I was an IOBC instructor. And, oh, sorry.

I'm not a super podcast dude, you know what I'm saying? No. But anyway, 03 or I'm sorry, 03, 04, I'm at Fort Benning teaching these little snot nose lieutenants to be infantrymen. You know what I'm saying? Hating my life because everybody's over in Iraq or wherever else. And I'm trying desperately to get out of there.

And 101st, 82nd were like 107 percent on the first class at the time, X, Y and Z. And so I couldn't get out. And they were starting this new brigade up in Alaska, 425. The snow darts. Right. And freaking.

And I've got a great, great story on that one because you're never going to get a better jump than jumping in a four foot of snow. Anyway, bottom line, the only way I could get out of out of Fort Benning was to go to Alaska. And I wasn't sure about it. I was like, I don't know about this stuff. And my wife was like, let's go.
