Welcome to the Exoskeletons and Wearable Robotics podcast: the one source for real-life practical human augmentation where we cut through the science fiction and marketing hype to get to the bottom of what this technology can and can't do for you or your family.
We are very fortunate to have our first guest on the podcast, George Woodland is one of these super rare individuals who has years of deployment experience and has studied biomedical engineering. He has both the hands-on experience of maintaining equipment in the field and forward operating bases and bioengineering.
Join us in this episode as George guides me and Prof. Tom Sugar (Wearable Robotics Association) through the reality of what happens to field equipment, what is needed, how the theater of war is changing, and some opportunities for how and where to introduce exoskeletons that can significantly reduce non-combat related injuries for service members.
Special thanks to our guest George Woodland for taking the time to share his 13 years of experience with the Canadian Armed Forces: https://www.linkedin.com/in/george-woodland-541a56198/

Medal of Honor: Stories of Courage
Rewarded for bravery that goes above and beyond the call of duty, the Medal of Honor is the United States’ top military decoration. The stories we tell are about the heroes who have distinguished themselves by acts of heroism and courage that have saved lives. From Judith Resnik, the second woman in space, to Daniel Daly, one of only 19 people to have received the Medal of Honor twice, these are stories about those who have done the improbable and unexpected, who have sacrificed something in the name of something much bigger than themselves. Every Wednesday on Medal of Honor, uncover what their experiences tell us about the nature of sacrifice, why people put their lives in danger for others, and what happens after you’ve become a hero. Special thanks to series creator Dan McGinn, to the Congressional Medal of Honor Society and Adam Plumpton. Medal of Honor begins on May 28.
