Mike Edwards served in 3rd Ranger Battalion and the Regimental Reconnaissance Company (RRC) across 18 deployments to Iraq, Afghanistan, and other places. In this interview we discuss his combat jump into Iraq in 2003, a rather hot deployment to Mosul, Iraq in 2005, and then the selection and training for RRC and what those deployments were like before he became an instructor at the military free fall course.
Apologies that this was not a live show, we had some internet issues with the snow storm here in New York. We hope to get that fixed but we decided to do a recording and upload it instead to make sure you guys got a good interview. The only thing you missed before we hit the record button was Mike and Jack talking about their time in the Ranger Regiment together and how Jack was a private running away and hiding from Mike who was a new tabbed spec-4 at the time! Special thanks to Mike and our viewers for their patience!

I came across a short of this man talking about why he liked the mp7. I immediately had to know more about him, I thought this dude is a real hero and seems like one of them guys that people just flock to and respect him and enjoy being around him. I found this video and started scrolling through the comments. I have seen a comment section before that has a bunch of positive comments about a specific person, but I have never seen a comment section like the one on this video showing love and support for this guy. It’s all people that know him, that have trained or been trained by him. It’s family members and lifelong friends etc… every single person is saying the same thing. How good of a man he is how much people love him and how many people he has helped. Wow this man is an absolute legend.

That's funny. When I went through 31W ANCOC at FT Gordon, I had a RRD communicator (SSG going through BNCOC) try and "Recruit" me The one thing that brought me to a halt was the requirement to go to Regiment and do 2 years before I could try out for RRD. I was an E7, working for 10th SFG(A), Jumpmaster and Pathfinder.....I didn't grow up in Regiment and knew that it wouldn't be fun to be a non-tabbed E7 in Regiment. If I had the opportunity to go straight to RRD Assessment/Selection, I definitely would have given that a much harder look. I worked with RRD in Kosovo in 2002, and was VERY impressed by who they were and what they did..
