Episode 125 - Interview with Blake Flannery

I'm joined this week by Blake Flannery, owner of Maneuver Training Solutions, LLC, as well as cadre at Orion Training Group. Blake is a former Force Recon Marine, having spent twenty years in the corps. Throughout our discussion, we talk about a plethora of different topics ranging from standard types of gear like plate carriers, chest rigs, belts, and rucks, as well as getting into the viability and effectiveness of different colors and camouflages. We discuss social media trends, the development of different fads in gear selection in usage, and ultimately how none of it will matter without adequate tactics, techniques, and training. A heck of a lot of information, and so much to unpack in this episode, you're bound to learn a few things from Blake.
