Murph interviews Javier Mackey, a retired U.S. Army Green Beret combat veteran. They discuss who and what influenced Javier’s life, his enlisting in the U.S. Army, and becoming a member of Special Forces. Having spent multiple deployments in Afghanistan and other countries, Javier talks about being shot several times while in combat. He also describes the terrible day when his close friend and brother in arms, Staff Sergeant Robert J. Miller, was killed in action while drawing enemy fire so others could move to a position of cover. For his actions, Staff Sgt Miller received the Congressional Medal of Honor, and Javier was awarded a Bronze Star with V. Murph and Javier cover the toll his military career took on his family, how Javier dealt with PTSD, his plans to help other veterans when they return home, and his creation of a new podcast, “Looking Over Strange Terrain.”
