Carroll Harris served in the Marine Corps and retired as a Lt. Colonel before joining the US Postal Inspection Service.
I learned a lot about how The US Postal Inspection Service works to keep Americans safe. Operation Protect Veterans is a way to ensure our nation’s heroes are not scammed out of their benefits.
The US Postal Inspection Service & AARP worked together to create Operation Protect Veterans, ….” and provide valuable information and resources that veterans, their loved ones, and their friends can use to help protect against scammers.”
According to Carroll, all Americans need to be vigilant in protecting others from scammers and bad actors who would take advantage of Veterans and other Americans. I liked how the Marine has never quit protecting against enemies foreign and domestic.

Anyone that has done anything in the military content creation space has run into Michael Madsen at one point or another. We connected a while ago when I was making the switch from being strictly a podcast to video. I asked him to come on because he is an example of someone who continues to serve.
Michael joined the Army as a Private and then got into flying helicopters. His career is an example of what one can do when they take advantage of every opportunity afforded to them.
After retiring in 2014, Michael started working as a Veterans Service Officer. I have always liked that you are getting information from someone who has personally gone through the VA system.
At minute 23:50 Mike says something about the Volunteer VSO Program that I have never heard. Trust me, you will have the same reaction I did!
As if Michael was busy enough, he also works with Operation Rallypoint V.P. of the Valkyrie Initiative in Birmingham, Al. and is the owner of the Foxhole Internet Radio Network, LLC.
Listening to Michael, I realized he could have chosen to retire, and taken it easy as he rode off into the sunset. Instead, he has chosen to keep serving by sharing his knowledge with others.

Nothing is Louder than Silence was an autobiography about Joe’s childhood. One Drunken Night is a result of Joe’s lifelong love of poetry.
One Drunken Nights tells stories of Joe’s childhood and military service. When I was reading this work, I felt the authenticity of what Joe’s life was like.
Joe’s life and what he has done after the Army shows how different everyone’s experience is during and after military service. Even though our experiences were different, there is a kinship with Joe. I believe it is because he is an artist. Thanks, Joe, for making the start of year seven special. I can’t wait to get to Romania!
You can get One Drunken Night on Amazon for Kindle. See Below
Seven Years of Oscar Mike Radio
This show will drop on Sunday July 16th, 2023, at 11:00 AM. I started Oscar Mike Radio on July 16th, 2016. 352 shows later, I am still having fun, learning a lot, and working to advocate for those who need a voice in the military and Veteran community. It was great doing this show with Joe who was literally a half a world away in Romania. I would have never thought all those years ago I would be having conversations like this. Thanks to everyone who has supported me, the best is yet to come. We are Oscar Mike and Mission in Flight.

I would like to start off by saying thank you to David Danforth and John Kennedy and the rest of the Veterans Brotherhood Veterans Motorcycle Club for connecting me with Ben Hendricks and Luke Young, the founders of The Garrison Speed Shop.
Luke, U.S. Army, and Ben, USCG, met after they left the service through the Nam Knights of America Motorcycle Club.
The Garrison Speed Shop was created to get Veterans and Community members in a space where they can be together while working on motorcycles. I ride a motorcycle. The idea of a place where I can go and work on my ride while socializing with others and learning some new skills is a type of advocacy, we in the Veteran community need. Turning a wrench or learning a new skill in metal fabrication from Luke and Ben will allow Veterans to engage in a hands-on way that can’t be done in other places.
You can get skin grafts for your hands, but I can’t find confirmation for palms. Wear gloves when riding a motorcycle.
Thank you for a great conversation, Ben and Luke, kickstand up and rubber down. Go to https://garrisonspeedshop.org/ to find out more and help an amazing organization.

I got connected to Mike Utschig through Stephen Russell who came on in March of this year to talk about his work with “Tales of Nihilism”. Mike and Stephen served together in the Army, so it is cool that we got connected in this way.
Even before we talked Mike helped me when I was thinking about getting RedFall. He advised against it and was right. Diablo IV was the better choice.
Mike’s After-Action Reports is a way for Mike to tell people what he loves about all things movies, television, anime, and video games. He has successfully grown his YouTube Channel by producing relatable content that connects with his viewers.
