A tribute to those closest to us that support us through all our ups and downs. Not many of us are blessed with a strong and wonderful support channel. A loved one, significant other, friends. Any Veteran who is still roaming above ground there's someone strong and special holding our back, covering our six and tolerating us at our worst. Some of the most wonderful people come into our lives after our time in service. We dedicate this episode to those wonderful and amazing individuals who stand behind our Veterans day in day out. Those on the home front who may not always know the struggles we face internally and still take us. #DismountPodcast #MilitaryVet #Military #MusicPodcast #PodcastersOfInstagram #PodcastLife #PodcastShow #repost #podcastmovement #podcaster #VeteranPodcast #VeteranMediaBiz #VetLife #Military

DADT and understanding Transgender Service. Our gender has never lessened the honor and sacrifice any of us have ever made. We only see the uniform and the person who stood up to wear it. Proud to reconnect with any and all fellow servicemembers. Ask any Veteran and they will tell you the same. We can go long periods of time no talking and jump back into a conversation as if it was yesterday. There is something to be said about the ever lasting bond and connection we all share. I once referred to myself as a cookie, if left alone solo too long. Similar to a cookie being left in milk. Over time, it deteriorates and absorbs what they keep around them. These guys keep me out of the proverbial milk of isolation. We all need a fireteam in times on need. Laugh, crack jokes, smile, share stories. #DismountPodcast #MilitaryVet #Military #MusicPodcast #PodcastersOfInstagram #PodcastLife #PodcastShow #repost #podcastmovement #podcaster #VeteranPodcast #VeteranMediaBiz #VetLife #Military

Who is Ryan " Bernie " Bernhard? Not just one way to describe any Veteran. We wear many hats and during a time of high tempo deployment rotations, fast train up times and finding himself across the ocean in a combat zone. He finds a tempo of life and identity other Veterans can relate. Bernie shares this, "Reach Out it will spark the habit to reconnecting and become easier." We can allow ourselves to find a new purpose.

What happens when you get four Army knuckleheads on one podcast? Well, in true military fashion, comms suck haha! We had a blast, found out all of us had different reasons for going in, life events, and relationships at the time. Though we shared an MOS at the end we got there differently. We just might need more than an hour! Stay hydrated, listen!, don't eat fatty cakes, and don't forget your Battle Buddy!

Dismount! This was a fantastic opportunity to open conversations about some of the concerns and struggles veterans face transition out of the military environment. Additionally, acknowledging those who are transitioning into the military as well. Biggest challenge is maintaining communication. Stick till the end for a fun bonus topic.
