Marty joined the United States Navy (USN) in 1975 and served 20 years as a Navy SEAL (Sea, Air and Land). Completing 10 years as an Enlisted SEAL, and then becoming an Officer for a further 10 years, reaching the rank of Lieutenant (LT).

In this episode Marty talks about joining the U.S. Navy and being talked into becoming a Navy SEAL, after his orders got mixed up during Boot Camp. He gives some great information about the Basic Underwater Demolition/SEAL (BUD/S) training, and his time in SEAL Team 2. He talks about working with other Special Forces around the world, including the British Special Boat Service (SBS), all before becoming a BUD/S instructor himself.

Marty also shares his mindset behind moving from his Enlisted position, and going through Officer Candidate School, to become an Officer in the SEAL teams. His time at SEAL Team 4 was a testament to his leadership abilities, which lead to him being assigned to the SEALs Strategy and Tactics Group, before transitioning out of the U.S. Navy. Since leaving the military, Marty has become an author and released many SEAL Novels and Business Books.
