#87 Cody Alford - USMC Special Operations - MARSOC - Entrepreneur

Cody is a former Marine Raider turned entrepreneur. Cody opens up about his raw and intense experiences, from violent missions to the daily struggles with military bureaucracy. We'll dive into the founding of MARSOC, the special operations branch of the Marine Corps, and hear Cody's candid thoughts on military leadership, the impact of service on personal life, and his unexpected transition to civilian life.

With unflinching honesty, Cody details his personal battles, from being on the KIA list to the psychological toll of warfare, and recounts a particularly harrowing encounter during the battle of Fallujah. Beyond the battlefield, Cody confronts societal issues, including his views on media influence and the need to foster critical thinking in our youth.
