We've all seen the headlines about his bravery in combat, but in this episode, we go far beyond the military accolades to discuss the real price of heroism and the silent struggle of mental health that follows the battlefield. Dakota is incredibly raw about the night he stood in the Battle of Ganjgal, the loss of his teammates, and the \"big dirty secret\" of the transition back to civilian life. We dive into the psychology of survival, how he navigated the weight of the Medal of Honor, and the faith and resilience required to rebuild a life when you feel like the world only sees the uniform. This isn't just a story about war; it's a masterclass in vulnerability and finding purpose in your darkest moments.
