    Man, no wonder Chris and Lee are so close, i didn't realize they went through selection together let alone grew up and matured together in the Unit. The humility of these dudes is monumentally mind blowing

    I am really liking the direction that this podcast is going. Hearing Lee talk about the culture shock when he transitioned to civilian life (especially working with other veterans) is a welcome change from other military focused podcasts.

    Lee, we were at HPE at the same time. I remember crossing paths with you a few times and just being in amazed by your stories and experience. Even though we came from drastically different military backgrounds, HPE felt just as terrible for me. I definitely had some massive culture shock adapting to a massive corporate environment and the vicious spin-off into DXC. Thanks for sharing your experience. To hear a guy with all of your accomplishments say he struggled with that transition makes me feel a lot less bad about how difficult it was for me. Hope you're doing well Lee! God Bless!
