Former rootin tootin frogman Navy SEAL, Doctor, sleep specialist, and inventor of "Sleep Remedy" Dr. Kirk Parsley.

A medical doctor was not Doc Parsleys originally plan. Out of many things you learn in the SEAL teams one of them is you feel unstoppable. High school drop out or not, Dr. Parsley was given the ingredients of a warrior to do whatever he wanted.

Ryan “Birdman” Parrott, Author, Public Speaker, and Founder of two non-profits benefitting Veterans and First-Responders is originally from Detroit, Michigan. Ryan enlisted in the Navy after watching the Twin Towers fall on 9/11, and Parrott served eight years as a U.S. Navy SEAL attached to Team SEVEN, completing three combat tours to Iraq before being assigned to Advanced Training Command as an Instructor.
In 2005, while serving in Iraq, Ryan was riding atop a Humvee manning the gun turret in enemy territory, when his vehicle was hit by an improvised explosive device (IED), causing a flash fire and throwing him from the Humvee. Ryan regained composure with his face and arms burned, and witnessed his fellow team members suffer devastating burn and blast injuries. While Ryan’s burns were only first and second degree, his teammates suffered lifelong injuries.
After completing his service, Ryan moved to Dallas, and in April of 2011, Ryan had the privilege of meeting a retired Army Ranger officer who suffered significant burn injuries, and Ryan was inspired and humbled by his display of strength and courage, despite his debilitating scarring. Ryan was discouraged that this Ranger, and others like him, were not benefitting from the progressive treatment of burns in the same way that amputees benefit from incredible advancements in prosthetics.
Searching for better answers, Ryan sought out physicians, medical professionals, civilian burn survivors as well as fire-fighters and paramedics, seeking to understand how burn treatment could be improved.
In 2012, Ryan established Sons of the Flag to help burn survivors and their families find the help and medical attention that they deserve.
He is also the founder of the Bird’s Eye View Project, addressing the extreme needs of Veterans and First Responders through extreme sports.
And, he is the author of Sons of the Flag: Real Accounts from the last 100 years of American Service.

We are proud to announce our new sponsor in the cool kids club- Canine Tactical!

Canine Tactical offers the first Premier Clone Working Canines in the USA - Premier Working Canine Clones for the Police Working Canine, Active Shooter Canine, and Personal Protection Canine fields.  Joshua Morton developed the ‘Morton/Method’ of training from his experiences as the first Navy SEAL K9 Operator for GRP 2.   The 3, 5, and 10-week training courses are designed to enhance the handler and canine’s individual and team qualities.  No course is the same.   All custom tailored ballistic and non-ballistic canine vests and handler kits are made in-house.

Wrestlers are viewed by many as the toughest athletes in the world.  They possess qualities such as mental and physical toughness, exceptional work ethic and dedication, endurance, self-reliance and the ability to perform under pressure.  Basically, they're Navy SEALs without guns.

Thomas Gilman and Team USA are set to take on the world at the 2018 Freestyle Wrestling World Cup to be held in Iowa City, Iowa on April 7th & 8th.  2017 World Cup was won by Iran and the United States finishing second.  The Iranians now have to come to the Heartland for a potential rematch with Red, White, and Blue.  Team USA will soon get what they've been looking for...a WAR!

North Korea will not be participating in this year's World Cup because their planes are just like their ballistic missiles...only travel 15 to 20 miles tops.

Morton/Method

Morton/Method concept introduces the canines to use their nose from day one, no matter the age and no visual stimulus is applied. So he started the Clones in detection/hunting for the ball. The Morton/Method does not utilize the food reward concept. While the Clones were in the room he noticed they were all in hunt mode with no end in sight, nose to the ground (nonstop). They were sniffing seams of doors, running in and out of dark areas, and up and down stairs. They didn’t know what they were hunting, but they needed to hunt.

Jim Garret and Shamus Garrett were two souls that were bound to come together and Become a Super Duo that would spread a message of hope, enlightenment, and good will. Well since that didn't work we just decided to write about our everyday adventures to brighten peoples day.

After growing up in a small town in northwest Iowa called Peterson. Jim left Iowa to work in many varied industries. Because of his hometown mentality, it opened a lot of doors from manufacturing portable livestock equipment to semi bumpers, working with horses, team roping, selling horse trailers to working with ag equipment dealers to finally settling down as a Locomotive engineer for a class one railroad- yes he does, in fact, drive the crazy train.

And well there was a divorce. Seeing the stress and strain that it caused got Jim to thinking how could I help others.

The idea was born A Cowboys Guide to Surviving Divorce!

The Cowboys guide to Divorce project spawned another project out of the inability for people to get along plus a healthy dose of spite and well a side of salt in the wound.

This started THE CHRONICLES OF RANCHGUY AND SUPER SHAMUS

Josh couldn't get enough of hangin' with the cool kids on Warrior Mindset podcast, so we had to fire up round two.

Josh Jespersen holds the world record for climbing AND snowboarding down all of Colorado’s 14,000-foot mountains. It was the culmination of a 138-day effort to skin up and snowboard down all 54 in the state. And to do it faster than anyone in history. In doing so, the unimposing 30-year-old contract security worker snagged the fastest known time record from big-mountain skier Chris Davenport. When Davenport completed the same journey in 2007, in 362 days. 

Jespersen's mission is not breaking world records. It's continuing to make a difference in the world. Jespersen is the founder of Mission Memorial Day. In their continuing mission to return Memorial Day to its original meaning, they have carried the names of the fallen on the flags to the top of Denali, the tallest peak in North America, and five other peaks. 

Hope you enjoy!!
