  • Today’s guest is former Army Special Mission Unit Operator and combat veteran Craig “Chili” Palmer.
    Chili served in the 75th Ranger Regiment in both 1st Battalion and the Regimental Reconnaissance Company. A week after reporting to 1st Battalion he made his first combat jump into Panama for Operation Just Cause. After two years as a Military Free Fall Instructor, he was selected for the U.S. Army’s top tier special mission unit where he served for another 17 years, making 13 combat deployments during the Global War on Terror. He retired as Sergeant Major. Post-military, he has worked in research-and-development on military technologies that benefit special operations forces. He is also a firearms instructor for SIG Sauer and Viking Tactics.
    His extensive combat and weapons experience has made him a highly sought-after expert in Hollywood as a military technical advisor. Chili’s film credits include How It Ends, Extraction, The Gray Man, and Extraction 2, set for release in 2023.

    Chili was an instructor at all the VTAC classes I took at Sig Academy. Great dude. It’s been several years since then and I am glad he is doing well.

      Steroids/HGH/test etc. all affect appearance - even changing facial features - and that’s (probably) a big contributing factor.

    I was in basic training at Fort Dix from November to January. I remember them pulling us out put us in formation because you’re not allowed to watch TV or read newspapers and they just let us know that the Rangers and the 82nd had jumped in the Panama and they said welcome to the Army.

    I’m not sure what was more impressive in the one-shot action scene from Extraction:
    A) Chris Hemsworth being able to nail all the stunts back to back
    B) the film crew being able to move and simultaneously get all the stunts on camera in one shot

      You are correct. Also in the follow up there was one in the movie "Be Cool" played by John Travolta as a mobster getting into the music industry.
