Task Force Orange Operator (ISA) | Joe England | Ep. 396

Joe England is a retired Army veteran with an unconventional path through special operations, including Special Forces support, service in one of the Army’s most secret special mission units (TFO/ISA), and later Army aviation as a helicopter pilot.
