  1. Love his story. So inspiring. Find a purpose. Confront your fears. Recovery takes time. Hang in there. Chef’s kiss.

  2. Happy 4th of July everybody . Please enjoy and celebrate it as we came close to losing it January 6th 2021 when tRumps mob stormed the White House .

    1. Thanks man Hapoy 4th ofJuly to you and your family too have a great one blessings and stay safe 🙏👍

  3. I went to the top of Mt Fuji when I was stationed in Japan. That is as high as I want to go without being on a plane.

    1. I think that’s quite common and a right of passage for American servicemen stationed in Japan. It was so common, we called it doing the fooj.

  4. Thank you so much for your service 🇺🇸 and congratulations 👏 on this accomplishment 🎆

  5. He should’ve done the Australian Continent’s tallest mountain. It’s much easier. You can drive to the top.

    But to the Vet, well done, Sir!

  6. Could of just led w/Purple Heart Recipient, then to say He powered through 7 Summits—but something just as powerful and MORE universal=He took a situation of great pain/insecurity-wanting to prove someone wrong—which in turn took the power away from the pain—what was in His control towards realignment w/happiness and betterment of Himself.
    Get on with it, Sir!
