From early missions in Africa to combat deployments in Afghanistan, Johnny shares stories of working alongside U.S. Special Forces and SEAL teams, navigating ambushes, and adapting to constantly evolving threats. The conversation also explores deeper topics—how deployments impact relationships, the mindset required for elite operators, and Johnny’s perspective on cartel warfare strategy and global conflict.
