Why don’t we tell the stories of Navy SEALs?
The SEALs should not be where they are, they are there because they put themselves there – hustle, innovation & a desire to be put in the fight is a good story – so why not tell it. We are in the so called, Entrepreneur era – special forces are the ultimate entrepreneurs in many ways.
