Mike Drop Podcast: Episode 54 - Mike Day

There are times when I have the opportunity to sit down with some extraordinary men and am routinely humbled by their stories. This was absolutely one of those times. Mike Day is a retired Navy SEAL who was shot 27 times on one mission, and managed to kill the 4 insurgents who shot him, then walked himself to the medical helicopter. This is one of the most remarkable stories I've been honored to be told first hand, and one that I know you guys will appreciate. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Table of Timestamps: Breaking the Ice & Bullet Wounds - 1:24 Growing up Tough & Trouble at Home- 5:54 Out of School & Into the Military - 22:53 Out of a Plane & Into Team 8 - 40:39 2006, Iraq, & Fallujah - 54:01 Shot 27 Times in One Firefight - 1:05:35 Evac to Germany & Coming Home - 1:28:54 Up on the Saddle & Back Into Jumpschool - 1:40:37 Retired, Retired? - 1:48:11 Trauma Builds Resilience (In Conclusion) - 1:56:54 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- To learn more, visit Mike Day's website at www.perfectlywounded.com Preorder Mike’s book, ‘Perfectly Wounded,’ coming June 9th at https://amzn.to/2WjIUlA ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Support our sponsors: Origin Labs | www.originmaine.com/origin-labs | @ORIGIN USA Bubs Naturals | www.bubsnaturals.com | @bubsnaturals Apparel, accessories, protection dogs, and online training at www.trikos.com Online dog training | https://teamdog.pet Team Dog Facebook | @TeamDog Training Books, Blog, Media and more from Mike Ritland at www.mikeritland.com
