Customer Reviews
Great show
Learned of this show from the Fighter Pilot Podcast and now enjoy both! Great stuff John!
Well done!
I’m enjoying the recent trend of “the real guys” talking about these topics. Very informative and highly interesting primary history. Thanks. 👍🏼👍🏼
Great podcast if you want to learn a lot!
I listen to this podcast in my free time and I’m really impressed with the guest speakers and the host. I feel their lessons and debriefs have mentored me as I’m working through Navy flight school. I would recommend this to anyone.
