GROG TALK WITH DOC AND JT PRESENTS: SETH COLE and MARK BALLAS Sep 08, 2015

Show notes

Seth Cole, I was in the military for 4.5 years before being medically retired in 2009 due to a mark19 grenade that detonated in my face. I was lucky enough to make it back alive, and even luckier to still have all my limbs. Before I joined the military I taught Karate to kids and adults, and since I have gotten out of the Army I haven't really done much until about a year ago when I joined a company called Advocare I would help vets to find different services in the VA that they are eligible for, but also wanted to be able to help them to find a job as well if I could. If someone is local, I have a few friends who own their own businesses and I try and hook the ones up who aren't wanting to be a part of AdvoCare Mark Ballas is a former Special Forces “Green Beret” and Army Ranger with over 20 years of combined operational and civilian teaching experience within the Special Operations community.
