Joel and Andrew were both Marine Corps radio operators that worked with me at 1st ANGLICO. Joel is now a police officer in Colorado and Andrew is a machinist running his family's business in Connecticut.
In this episode, we get into some of our stories from 1st ANGLICO and we also discuss a myriad of topics. Joel breaks down the different weapon systems his police department uses, Andrew talks about being a gun owner in Connecticut and complains about working with reservist and finally, all three of us discuss the minutiae of being in the Marines and different training ops we did.
