- Pat McNamara served 22 years in U.S. Army Special Operations, 13 of those years were with 1st SFOD-D. Pat has extensive experience in combat zones in Eastern Europe and the Middle East and during his time in Special Operations, he became an elite marksman and would later serve as his Unit's Marksmanship NCO eventually retiring from the Army’s premier hostage rescue unit as a Sergeant Major. Pat is now the CEO of TMACS a Performance-Based Training company that teaches individuals how to excel in everything from Tactics and Marksmanship through to Security. He is also the author of the two books, "T.A.P.S Tactical Application of Practical Shooting" as well as "Sentinel: Become the Agent in Charge of Your Own Protection Detail," a book that teaches survival techniques for protecting your family.
In this episode, Pat and I discuss his time serving in SFOD-D, the US Army's Tier One Special Operations unit, and the time he spent in Eastern Europe during the Cold War setting up spy networks, including infiltrating communist East Germany under diplomatic cover to collect intelligence on the Soviet and East German militaries.
Pat and I also explore his difficult journey transitioning out of Special Operations and into civilian life, and the challenging period he faced raising young children in an extremely problematic marriage, as well as an unlikely visit from an owl (yes, the bird) that helped him overcome his downward spiral and fostered his growth as one of the most positive and highly motivated individuals you will ever meet.

Army special forces: glorified military advisors who train foreign units.
Sounds like you couldn’t make it past the PT test at Bragg
@@An_Enraged_Pig nah never served bro! Ain’t missing out either. Especially with a unit that trains our enemies. Much respect to the SEALs who KILL our enemies. Taxpayers dollars going to good use right there unlike the lame ass Green Berets 😂 it’s nice seeing triggered snowflakes so thanks for making my day.
Glorified?
