EP 4 - Elton Johnson


Listen Later

Elton Johnson served 37 years in the US Armed Forces. He started in the Marines, became a US Army paratrooper, and served in a US Army Special Forces unit as an enlisted man and an officer. In 1994, Elton started a financial brokerage company, AmeriVet Securities, and still runs it to this day. In 2004 during a deployment, Elton and three other African American soldiers were responsible for transporting billions of Iraqi Dinars across the desert to pay the Iraqi Army. It's an incredible and dangerous story, and Elton hopes to be able to share it on the big screen one day. We had a great time talking with him and we know you'll enjoy it as well.
