Mike Drop

Bryan Ray always wanted to be the best soldier. He served 20 years in the U.S. Army, 15 of which were in Special Forces. He's deployed to Afghanistan, Africa, and Iraq, going from the most inexperienced infantry to ultimately running teams as command. He's also a mountain man, schooling amateurs on everything from moderate hiking to ice climbing at some of the highest elevations on earth.Over the course of his career, Bryan's had a lot of close calls, from ISIS ambushes to a Taliban prison raid and even a hair-raising story of an AC-130 call gone wrong. And since then he's pivoted into Health Via Modern Nutrition, a Mike Drop favorite for fans of high-energy operations. But one thing he knows for sure is don't be a leg - and never, ever quit.----------Chapters:00:00 - Intro02:00 - Traveling to Italy04:15 - A Very Cold Shower09:45 - Born on Fort Bragg14:45 - Paintball with Dad20:15 - "Don't Be a Leg"23:45 - Fort Polk with the 509th32:45 - Deployed to Iraq36:15 - A Wayward Ambush42:15 - The Army's Corporal Recr
