Dan Pace, Former Special Forces Company Commander and Author of 'It Was What It Was'

from SOFREP Radio · host iHeartPodcasts

Dan Pace is a former Special Forces company commander and battalion executive officer (XO) of the 7th Special Forces Group (Airborne). He is also the author of "It Was What It Was," a book detailing his experiences and the challenges faced by his unit during their deployment in Baghdad as part of the 1st Infantry Division's "Surge" Brigade.   Pace discusses moral injury and how it is a product of cumulative and accumulated damage. It is difficult to address but must be nipped early because of the danger it poses to the integrity of the entire organization. Ethics matter and should be at the forefront of training, as the difference between a person being alive or dead is just one trigger pull away.    Get a copy of "It Was What It Was": https://amzn.to/3SmxgTb   Join the SOFREP Book Club here: https://sofrep.com/book-clubSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
