Paul Darling

HI,
I represent Real Plastic Heroes. https://realplasticheroes.com/.

All veterans involved get a part of the proceeds as well donations to various veteran causes, my focus is on veteran and family member suicides.
I have 23 years of service and deployed to Macedonia, Bosnia and Afghanistan
I am a published author through the University Press of Kansas, https://kansaspress.ku.edu/9780700638062/
I am also the host of the War 102 Podcast. https://war102.buzzsprout.com/
My three adult children are either serving infantrymen, former infantrymen or striving to be a Marine combat cameraman (my daughter)
My primary focus is how DoD needs to reform internally to attract higher quality recruits and set up veterans for success after their service is complete. And, of course, to fight and win our nation’s wars without spending a fortune. Secondarily, in the absence of a more distributed source of new recruits, to educate non-veterans on the doctrine, theory and history of warfare. It was the point of creating my podcast.
Here is a cut of how I interview.

A search of "Taliban Safari" or "Lieutenant Colonel Paul Darling" will show some other examples of my public speaking.
