Havok Journal owner Charles Faint joins us for an update. Havok Journal is my “go-to” website for all discussion military and first responder.
We do a deep dive into three poignant (and somewhat related) articles by former Army Ranger now law enforcement officer Jake Smith and Mike Warnock, Editor in Chief of the Havok Journal.
In “Half Staff Flags”, Smith discusses his changed perspective on seeing flags flying at half staff. Where he once saw them as symbols of those fallen in war or civil servants lost, as a law enforcement officer he gained a new perspective. What he sees not is a symbol innocents lost to yet another incident of mass violence.
Charles and I discuss the parallels I found in the articles “My Funeral: Let Whatever Pain Caused by My Loss Not Whitewash My Life” by Smith and “The Moment I Knew Why There Were Suicide Bombers” by Mike Warnock. Both articles provide moving insights and a different perspective not often heard by civilians.
We have a little fun with a humorous article “Nonners” by Dave Chamberlain. Chamberlain introduces us to the term for airmen who never fix, load or service aircraft. Apparently this is the Air Force equivalent of the Army’s POGS (persons other than grunts).
We wrap up with Charles sharing his experiences as a volunteer deputy with a local law enforcement agency.
