On this episode of Warrior Enigma, host Jeff Ottele sits down with his good friend and former military mentor, retired Senior Chief Petty Officer Ben Umayam. Ben served in the Navy for 26 years, 20 of which as an Explosive Ordnance Disposal Technician. He deployed 11 times, 6 of which were combat tours, and was TWICE awarded the Bronze Star with "V" device for valor. In this podcast we talk about parts of his decorated Special Operations career and how those experiences effect him now, we dive into his family and his views on war having children of service age, and we tackle polarizing topics such as females in combat roles and DEI in military leadership.
Tune in, enjoy the show, and follow the channel for more engaging talks with highly successful people!
