    WTC | Ep 27: SkillBridge Changes, Time to Panic?

    Of all the things to get us back on the mic after all this time, it was a suspicious post from the Air Force amn/nco/snco Facebook page. Does this screen shot have legs to stand on or is just all a bunch of unconfirmed bull. Since the host is currently going through the Skillbridge program, we dive into these changes and get to the bottom of it for you. For more information on SkillBridge and to do your own research on the updates, check out their website at https://skillbridge.osd.mil/.  Support the show Shop the Chaos: www.whiskeytangochaos.com Contact the Chaos: whiskeytangochaos@gmail.com @WhiskeyTangoChaos **Disclaimer: The views and opinions expressed in this podcast are those of the co-hosts and their guests and do not necessarily reflect the views or positions of the DoD or the Department of the United States Air Force.

    WTC | Ep 26: Overcoming Tragedy and Honoring Lt Paul DeWolf

    We're checking in with our good friends Chad and Rebekah Holling over a glass of Yellow Spot whiskey. During our conversation, we learn more about their story of overcoming personal tragedy, and how they have moved forward through honoring the life of Rebekah's brother, Lt Paul DeWolf. A recent Air Force recruit, Paul was attending the University of Michigan to become a physician when his life was tragically cut short. The Holling's open up about hearing the news, and how they are honoring the life of their brother and best friend by keeping his legacy alive. We also learn about the Tragedy Assistance Program for Survivors (TAPS) and how they are a great resource for long term grief support. Below are some links to learn more about TAPS, Lt DeWolf, and a memorial video from U of M.  TAPS (Tragedy Assistance Program for Survivors): https://www.taps.org/ Paul DeWolf, M.D. Memorial Scholarship Fund: https://leadersandbest.umich.edu/find/#!/give/basket/fund/798682?keyword=Paul%20DeWolf U of M Video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rKmt9YzGV5I Support the show Shop the Chaos: www.whiskeytangochaos.com Contact the Chaos: whiskeytangochaos@gmail.com @WhiskeyTangoChaos **Disclaimer: The views and opinions expressed in this podcast are those of the co-hosts and their guests and do not necessarily reflect the views or positions of the DoD or the Department of the United States Air Force.
