Oscar Mike Radio – 507 – Lauren Burns and Don Feeney – Stolen

This episode of Oscar Mike Radio features returning guestLauren Burns, joined by a very special guest: former Delta Force operator Don Feeney. Lauren's incredible story began when she was kidnapped as a child from Dallas and taken to Jordan, an experience that profoundly affected her life. After years of healing, she is now ready to share her journey in her upcoming book, Stolen, releasing on September 8th. This conversation offers a new perspective through Don, one of the men involved in her rescue. Don recounts the covert mission he undertook with teammates JD and Dave, detailing how they tracked Lauren via a school bus and successfully extracted her across the Allenby Bridge into Israel. Hearing Lauren and Don’s sides of the story was powerful:one as the child needing rescue, the other as a team member determined to bring her home. Decades later, they reflect together, not just on what occurred but on what followed. Central to this dialogue is faith; both share how it carriedthem through challenging times. For Lauren, faith has become part of a broader mission: to turn a painful chapter into a story that offers hope to others. This episode signifies more than a rescue; it’s aboutsurvival, healing, faith, and choosing what to do with our stories after the darkest moments. Lauren's book, Stolen, is out September 8th. Thank you, Lauren, for trusting me and the Oscar Mike Radio audience with your story again.
