Sgt Erik Goodge was a United States Marine Corps Fire Support Man that hails from Evansville, IN. He is a veteran of Operation Enduring Freedom and, with other members of 2nd Battalion 8th Marine Regiment, deployed in support of President Obama's surge in Afghanistan.
During Goodge's discussion about his deployment, the listener hears what difficulties faced the Marines that were new to the area and what life was like for the infantryman and their enablers. Goodge also details how he was wounded by an IED that was initiated by an Afghan National Army soldier that resulted in 2 ANA deaths, 1 Marine death and multiple injuries within the patrol.
In addition to Goodge's time in the Marines, we discuss college benefits, cryptocurrency, investing and more. This is a really great conversation that I hope you enjoy. Make sure to subscribe on your favorite platforms!
