Send us a textMeet Lt. Col Brian Slade, a former enlisted Army diesel mechanic who later found himself flying Apaches in Afghanistan as part of the global war on terror. He eventually transferred over to the Air Force, becoming an HH60 Rescue Pilot. Throughout his journey, he learned how to cope with trauma and prioritize his mental health by preparing for stressors rather than just reacting to them. In honor of Men's mental health month, we had the privilege of sitting down with Lt. Col Slade to gain insight into his experiences and learn valuable tools for dealing with life's challenges. Our conversation with him was enlightening and informative.For those interested in delving deeper into his story, we highly recommend reading Lt. Col Brian Slade's book, "Cleared Hot." You can find it at https://www.clearedhot.info/. It's a must-read! We extend our sincerest gratitude to Brian for sharing his time and experience with us.#armyaviation #airforce #podcast 00:00 The intro that Aaron almost nails but fails, standard01:17 Lt Col Brian Slade's Background and Path to the Creme de la Creme, the Apache08:30 Preparing for the first deployment and interpersonal relationships19:45 Little Glitch and getting the Apaches ready to support GWOT operations23:05 The first engagement and looking death in the face37:00 Reintegration, failing relationships, and coping with trauma 45:30 Chair Flying and becoming the Doug, and almost dying again49:36 Aaron and Trent's faces are giving "About to puke" energy 54:00 Trauma comparing and chair flying to prevent PTSD1:03:00 Triumph from Trauma events and the way forward from PTSD triumphovertrauma.net1:08:15 Advice from Lt Col SladeThe views and opinions expressed by the OnesReady team and all guests are those of the team and themselves, and do not reflect the official policy or position of the DoD.

Send us a textAfter answering a calling to join the United States Marines in the heat of the Global War on Terror, Jeric Fry embarked on an unreal journey. From his deployments to the most active combat zones our generation have seen to his experience leading one of the most prestigious institutions in the military, his career was nothing short of exceptional. However, he found himself lost when he decided to step away from the military and reenter civilian life. Jeric realized that he had no direction, no sense of purpose and no calling. That's what led him to Brazilian jiu-jitsu. Through another equally remarkable set of circumstances, Jeric found himself with a new calling- to find a tribe for every single veteran. A way for them to be included, a place for them to find themselves again, and this was the beginning of the Veteran Bushido Brotherhood. https://veteranbushidobrotherhood.com/ is a site you need to check out and see exactly what Jeric and his project are about. #usmc  #onesready #podcast 00:00 ATAClete for all you need live on onesready.com//18A Fitness code 1READY04:18 Jeric Fry and his intro, finding the Marines, and impressions at Perris Island27:22 Graduating the Crucible, infantry school, first assignments and deployment 49:00 Experiencing the first losses, Bangin in Sangin, and going to Infantry Officer School58:00 Trying to fit in, losing your way and finding yourself through BJJ 1:11:00 Starting Veteran Bushido, Finding Faith, and moving on to help othersDon't forget to subscribe to the Podcast on your favorite player! http://bit.ly/2OG2OlfHave a question?  Email us at info@onesready.comFollow us on Instagram http://bit.ly/2OeNoFIAs always, THANK YOU for your support, we truly appreciate it.The views and opinions expressed by the OnesReady team and all guests are those of the team and themselves, and do not reflect the official policy or position of the DoD.

Send us a textHave you ever wondered who packs the parachutes for those "cool guy" videos of Air Force Special Tactics team jumping into enemy territory or pilots ejecting from high-speed aircraft? The answer lies with the Aircrew Flight Equipment personnel, also known as "Parachute Riggers." They have one of the most important jobs in the Air Force, ensuring that the parachute opens flawlessly every time. It's not just operators who are crucial to the mission in Air Force Special Tactics or Rescue Squadrons. We also rely on a large group of Special Warfare Mission Support AFSC's to help us achieve our goals. MSgt Gabe Macias is just one of these professionals, and he kindly joined us on this episode to discuss everything these Air Force Airmen can contribute to a wide range of Air Force Missions. We are grateful to MSgt Macias for his insights and hope you enjoy this episode.00:00 - Background02:55 - What is AFE13:40 - ST/RQS Track for AFE16:40 - Challenges in AFE (ST/RQS)21:50 - Stresses of packing chutes23:00 - AFE going to jump school26:48 - AFE = Multi-Capable Airmen29:00 - Type of people AFE is looking for31:00 - AFE Tech School35:00 - Outside the USAF OpportunitiesDon't forget to subscribe to the Podcast on your favorite player! http://bit.ly/2OG2OlfHave a question?  Email us at info@onesready.comFollow us on Instagram http://bit.ly/2OeNoFIAs always, THANK YOU for your support, we truly appreciate it.#podcast #military The views and opinions expressed by the OnesReady team and any guests are those of the team and themselves and do not reflect the official policy or position of the DoD.
