The Art and War Podcast 202: U.S. Marine to Foreign Fighter w/ Kurt
Nathan sits down with his local pal Kurt (from SOFREP) to talk about his experience transitioning from enlisted U.S. Marine to training and fighting alongside the Peshmerga in Iraq and Ukrainian forces in Ukraine. He details the shenanigans that come with dealing with TSA en route to theater, the logistics of getting in contact with foreign militias, and the many eccentric characters he got to know along the way.
The two later discuss their shared enthusiasm for civilian preparedness, including the importance of prioritizing skill and training over gear, the importance of mindset and good fitness, and how embracing the tools of modern warfare is often a necessity: not a bonus.
