We go away for a few weeks and the whole world goes to crap!  Not in a million years did we think we'd be recording an episode from quarantine during a deadly global viral pandemic... but here we are and there you are, holed up in your underground bunker, surrounded by stockpiles of hand sanitizer, ammo, and toilet paper.  Ah, toilet paper.  The unexpected commodity of 2020.  You can't wipe your butt with gold bars, now can you?

This episode is NOT for you, but it IS for someone you know!  David goes solo and maybe a little rogue and drops some solid advice for anyone planning to attend a big Second Amendment rally, especially anytime soon in... say... Washington, DC.  If you've ever paid attention to how the media and gun control advocacy groups FEAST on the worst possible representatives of gun ownership at these events, this episode might help the people you know avoid being one of them.

Dave "Boon" Benton and Bill Orndorf on Vehicle Defense Concepts for Civilians and LEO

David and Mark are excited to bring you this conversation with Dave "Boon" Benton and Bill Orndorf about Vehicle Defense concepts for both civilians and Law Enforcement Officers.  Commonly called VCQB, which is perhaps a misnomer, this episode explores the art of fighting from within and around a vehicle and how it's more relevant to your life than you might think.

 

About Dave "Boon" Benton

Boon likely needs no introduction.  He is a US Marine Corps veteran, has a combined 24 years serving in specialized teams and leadership roles in the military, law enforcement, protective security, and intelligence community.  He has held many positions on various teams from assaulter, sniper, breacher, tactical medic, team leader, and instructor.


Perhaps more recognizably for many of our listeners, Boon is one of the warriors that fought to protect the the US Diplomatic Post and CIA Annex in Benghazi, Libya in September of 2012.  The commitment and bravery of Boon and his brothers in arms was chronicled in the book “13 Hours: The Inside Account of What Really Happened in Benghazi” and also the movie, “13 Hours: The Secret Soldiers of Benghazi”.
