On this episode of Tactically Acquired we have a United States Navy Veteran, Northern Kentucky University (NKU) Police Officer, and an Alum joining us to discuss his journey through basic training, traveling the Pacific Realm on an aircraft carrier (flying onto a ship), being a “Shellback,” transitioning out of the service, “iron sharpens iron” and how he arrived at NKU. Plus, plenty of great tips for school, life and career success.   

Our goal is to document military connected living history in a fun and easy environment.  We will capture the stories of our active duty, guard, reservists, veterans, ROTC and their families.  Sharing their stories, adventures, and journeys across the military life cycle.  

The podcast is for anyone interested in joining the military, has been a part of the military, or who wishes to learn more about military life.  In addition, we want to bridge the growing military-civilian divide through education.  

This is “unfiltered” meaning we will go over the good, the bad, and yes, maybe even the ugly of being a military connected individual.  

This is from Northern Kentucky University’s Veterans Resource Station in partnership with the Department of History.  Produced by Professor Kevin Eagles.
