Episode 45 - Eric Moser (Army Special Operations, OIF Veteran)

Host Tim K. sits down in Moab, Utah with Army Special Operations Veteran Eric Moser. Before serving as a Green Beret, Eric spent time with the Army’s famed 82nd Airborne Division. On the podcast, Moser opens up about his most difficult day in combat on a rooftop in Samarra, Iraq in 2007. What would become a story of intrepidity and a paratrooper’s resolve to never quit fighting was in reality one of the most horrific days of Eric’s life as his SKT (Sniper Kill Team), comprised of four paratroopers including himself, encountered a vicious ambush from a well-organized militia. Moser’s courage that day led to him being awarded the Army’s second-highest honor, the Distinguished Service Cross. After his time in the 82nd, Eric attended and completed SFAS (Special Forces Assessment & Selection) becoming a Green Beret and serving with 10th Special Forces Group. Eric also speaks on the untimely end of his military career and eventual medical retirement. Moser is now living in Colorado Springs and is the Co-Founder (alongside Rob Ziarnick) of Gunfighter Design, a custom cutlery producer.
