The Return of Huesing - #1 Best Selling Author of “Echo in Ramadi”
Retired Marine Major, and #1 Best Selling author of Echo in Ramadi reached out to me to touch base with the #YearOfTheVet family, and fill us in on what he’s been up to since the last conversation between us!<br /><br />Echo in Ramadi, describes Scott’s account during the winter of 2006 through the spring of 2007, where two-hundred-fifty Marines from Echo Company, Second Battalion, Fourth Marines fought daily in the dangerous, dense city streets of Ramadi, Iraq during the Multi-National Forces Surge ordered by President George W. Bush. The Marines' mission: to kill or capture anti-Iraqi forces. Their experience: like being in Hell.<br /><br />During his career spanning ten deployments, he operated in over 60 countries worldwide. Throughout his numerous deployments to Iraq, Afghanistan, and the Horn of Africa he planned, led, and conducted hundreds of combat missions under some of the most austere and challenging conditions.<br /><br />Scott is a published author since 2005. Echo in Ramadi is a snapshot in time that changed the face of operations on the battlefield; a captivating story of Echo Company, 2nd Battalion, 4th Marines during the Second Battle of Ramadi in support of the Multi-National Forces (MNF) Surge Strategy in 2006. His true-life account provides keen insights into what may be an unfamiliar world to readers, but very familiar to those, like Scott, who lived it and endured this historic fight.

Travis Collier - Transition Coach
On this episode of #YearOfTheVet, we welcome Travis Collier to the show! Travis joins us as a Keynote Speaker, a Transition Coach/Advisor, and Organizational Performance Consultant, and most recently the author of, "Command Your Transition: Declare Your Intent, Craft Your Mission, Make it on the Outside."<br /> <br /><br />Travis brings a unique perspective on transition, being that Lieutenant Commander Collier is still active duty in the Coast Guard, during the time of this conversation. Thinking that he was going to accept early retirement, Travis had gone through the mental and physical motions of military to civilian transition, and through his process—he was able to notice some key elements missing in the generic exit classes, and decided to write the book that he wishes he could have during transition.<br /><br />Show Notes<br />During this conversation we hit some key elements of his book such as:<br />- When is the right time to start thinking about your transition back into to the civilian world<br />- How to set yourself up for success in both the military and the civilian side<br />- Networking<br />- How long you should take to unwind from the service, and<br />- How long you should expect to be on your job search for the salary you believe you are worth.<br /><br />There is so much more spoken about in this conversation, and I expect that everyone will pull something from it.

Andrew N. Pierce. ESQ. - Legislative | Executive Assistant
I'm honored to introduce the first non-Marine to the show, and a hero on and off the proverbial battlefield—Andrew Nathan Pierce, Esq..<br /><br />Andrew served his country in a time of war and continues to serve his country, by serving his community as a Legislative/Executive Assistant to the City Council of Edmonds, Washington. No more than 45 days into his new position, he was recognized for his hard work and dedication to his craft, and he credits that to his military mindset, but most of all—the support from his family to chase the fight.<br /><br />Andrew served his country in a time of war, and continues to serve his country, by serving his community as a Legislative/Executive Assistant to the City Council of Edmonds, Washington. No more than 45 days into his new position, he was recognized for his hard work and dedication to his craft, and he credits that to his military mindset, but most of all—the support from his family to chase the fight.<br /><br />Our conversation can be summed up in two words, and that's... Process Improvement—for he mentions it as a term to label his profession, however the term itself has a home in the overall theme of all that is introduced in this episode of #YearOfTheVet!<br /><br />In our conversation we venture into a quick discussion on voting responsibilities, marijuana use, mentorship, and learning to 'Fail Fast' in order to succeed.
