Delta Drive Operator Chris VanSant is again in Half 2 of this two-part collection. This episode dives deep into his function within the invasion of Iraq and the seize of Saddam Hussein. VanSant vividly remembers an engagement with over 300 enemy combatants after a goat herder revealed his staff’s location. We get a primary hand account of the operational tempo it takes to seek out every participant of the notorious “Deck of Playing cards,” and what occurs when a handful of Delta Operators are outnumbered within the Horn of Africa with solely the Navy Destroyer U.S.S. Chafee for canopy.
VanSant tells tales of loss and grappling with the survivor’s guilt that may in the end change the course of his life. Chris serves on the board of the All Safe Basis and is on a multi-year effort to finish the seven summits to lift consciousness for veteran psychological well being and help All Safe.
