Вставка

- From pretending to be a soldier at a young age to becoming a Special Forces soldier to becoming an entrepreneur. That’s this week’s Team Never Quit Podcast guest, former US Army Special Forces Green Beret, Mike Glover. With deployments to fourteen combat theaters, Mike worked in the US Army for over 18 years, serving as a weapons specialist, assaulter, sniper, recon specialist, team sergeant, joint terminal air controller (JTAC), and operations SGM.
Mike is the founder and CEO of Fieldcraft Survival, and host of the Fieldcraft Survival Podcast on iTunes, and Soundcloud. He is an avid outdoorsman, traveler, and hunter. He teaches survival and disaster preparedness and provides equipment solutions based on his experience in special operations. As an expert at counter-terrorism, Mike says that survival isn’t just technical ability; it is the encompassing of everything he has learned throughout his career: mindset, technical skills, and equipment.

In this episode you will hear:
• Common sense is not so common anymore. If more people paid attention to having a little more common sense, most of the things you see go wrong is because of the lack of it. (2:03)
• I joined the Army at the age of 17 and started my journey. (6:05)
• I was never the disciplinary unless it came to standards. If you wanted flexibility, you had to meet the baseline. (28:37)
• My military certainly taught me how to have and develop hard skills - technical skills. The overwhelming majority of me surviving had nothing to do with hard skills, but had everything to do with planning, preparation, attention to detail, culture, physical fitness, health and wellness, as a collective. (32:38)
• You have to understand how to operate and be resilient every single day. (33:29)
• Resilience, by far, is the hardest thing to teach. (34:36)
• Resilience is the act of getting up after you’ve been beat down. (37:39)
• “You’re going to rise to the occasion” is a misnomer. You’re going to fall to your level of training. (40:58)
• My company is called Fieldcraft Survival. (43:00)
• VSO - Village Stabilization Operations. You wanna have access to placement? Well, get into the environment where people live, train and educate them, empower them, and that place will be better. (50:03)
• One of the reasons me and Marcus were successful in our military careers is because we had an institution - a culture that was willing to listen to subject matter experts, and we took that information and applied it to our lives. (54:20)

One of my battle buddies joined SF shortly after I ETS’ed in 1999. He died in an IED explosion. SFC Chad Gonsalves and I served in the 18th Infantry Division together.
May God Bless you and your Warrior Brother. Thank YOU for your service. 🇺🇸
He was my boyfriend..I wasn’t allowed at his funeral because he never came out to his family

If there’s one thing I take from watching, reading boatloads of these pods and books is MINDSET.
Absolutely awesome guest choice. Big respect for both Marcus and his group as well as Mike and the Fieldcraft folks.
Mike Glover is the man.
Mike is such a king.
Love glover and the boys, Lets go!!
Awesome guest Marcus. I have watched several videos of his from clearing a room to survival. Mike is a great person and hope to actually meet him and even you some day. Thanks for all you guys do.
Man that’s cool. Love them two Mike and Marcus really make for a good podcast. And the queen! Lol love how Marcus always uses his Texas gentleman manners
Mike seems like a real interesting dude. Love the cast of characters you being onto the podcast. Thank you for your service.
Philadelphia checking-in. Mike Glover is a certified badass and genuine guy. Intelligent bastard also 😂👍
I came on line with the PRC-77, Jeep, the 1911 .45, and Green 107's... Retired with all the new stuff but still carry the 1911.
Y'all should get Craig Morgan on this show would be cool to hear his stories from Panama while in 5th group and his music line
Don't even ask me the name of the damn base I don't remember, that had me rolling
Navy Seals came out in 1990.
The Day that i see The Rubber Ducky Version of the Movie Navy Seals... then I've seen everything?
Funniest thing I ever heard was Brad Pitt in Inglourious Bastards. A Southern accent speaking Italian. How convincing LOL.
Dude was a tombguard before he was a ranger, green beret, or delta operator………
Yeah I knew that until just the other day, when I saw a video short of him at the Tomb Of The Unknown Soldier with the Tomb Guards. He demonstrated the rifle inspection drill. It was seriously impressive to see how he remembered every movement of it.
I didn’t do anything high speed, like Special Ops, but I did go into the Army, 11B, right out of high school. Obviously, I went to Ft. Benning, and then was stationed in Schweinfurt, Germany. I joined because of my grandfather. He was a Vietnam veteran, and he exposed me to all of the war movies, that made me want to join. Platoon, Full Metal Jacket, Apocalypse Now. All were great recruiting tools for young men.
Thank you for your service .🇺🇸
I heard tu calling me, Brother Marcus Luttrell 1 of Earl Duke of Seal Devgru 6 SWCC Officer and Enlistedman Community
💯🙏🏻🇺🇸‼️
They have been trying to get rid of the A-10 forever but there isn't another airframe that can do CAS so well. I was weapons systems on F-16s.
They should make a new version of the A10
Get Wes Watson on here ASAP!
