Much of today’s show is a re-broadcast of last year but there are some new things included. Take time today and think about all the sacrifices made by our vet, thank a vet and expect something different at the end of today’s show.

To all vets out there that listen to TSP this show is especially for you, thank you for your service and thank you for the honor you so clearly demonstrate. Thank you also for listening to TSP, that indeed is an honor for me to know how many vets out there find TSP worth taking time to listen to.

Episode-185- Survival Lessons from the Aguan River Valley [42:31m]:

In 1991-1992 at the age of 19 I took part in something called “Operation Furetes Caminos” as part of a detachment to the 536th Combat Engineers. From Dec 91 - June of 92 we worked to carve 10 miles of road into the Honduran interior in one of the harshest environments in the world. While there I learned a lot about life, survival and I learned how that which seems desolate and harsh can show you some of the most beautiful things the world has to offer.
Join me today on another time travel event back to 1992 as we recall together what the real power of man is all about. I will tell you lessons I learned and acted on at 19 that I could not articulate or even understand until more then a decade later. Today’ show notes are brief, just tune in the story speaks for itself.
