Pete invited Iraq/Afghanistan War Vet, and former Border Patrol Agent Joshua Childress to come on the show.
After coming home from the wars, Joshua joined the southern Border Patrol. After hearing podcasts like Thaddeus Russell’s and Brett Veinotte’s, and reading Scott Horton’s ‘Fool’s Errand,’ Joshua decided to leave the border patrol.
Joshua talks about a multitude of issues but Pete concentrates on the mindset of an order taker, and an order giver.
