In part two of this episode, we get heavy into Prime's deployments. We learn about the unique bond US Operators have with their Afghan partners and how those bonds bend and break when the sum of all fears becomes a reality–an insider attack. This attack claimed multiple lives and would influence procedure and policy for the remainder of the war. Prime shares in detail his experience transitioning from intense combat rotations into civilian life and the grueling realities of PTSD. His life was hanging by a thread until alternative treatments changed his world and set him on the path to training Olympians and launching Underwater Torpedo League into a globally acclaimed sport. 🚨↘️ Shawn Ryan Show Links ↙️🚨 Newsletter - https://shawnryanshow.com/pages/newsletter Patreon - https://www.patreon.com/VigilanceElite Apple - https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/shawn-ryan-show/id1492492083 Spotify - https://open.spotify.com/show/5eodRZd3qR9VT1ip1wI7xQ?si=59f9d106e56a4509 TikTok - https://www.tiktok.com/@shawnryanshow Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/shawnryan762 #vigilanceelite #shawnryanshow Prime Hall Links: Website & Coaching - https://www.primehall.com Instagram - https://instagram.com/prime_tiime Book Pre-Order - https://publishizer.com/obstacles-equal-opportunity/ Shawn Ryan Show Sponsors: https://hvmn.com - USE CODE "SHAWN" https:/mudwtr.com/shawn - USE CODE "SHAWNMUD" https://betterhelp.com/shawn https://ziprecruiter.com/srs 00:00 - introduction 08:32 - Helmand Province History 17:43 - “Did you fear death?” 23:13 - JTAC Operator 28:18 - Operation Goat Rope 31:17 - I.E.D.
