In this episode, we dive into the life and military career of Master Sgt. Earl Plumlee, from his beginnings in Clinton, Oklahoma, working on his family’s cattle ranch, to becoming a decorated member of the United States Armed Forces. Hear about his remarkable journey through multiple deployments across the globe, from Iraq to Afghanistan, and the experiences that shaped him into a man of profound courage and resilience.
Join us as we explore Plumlee's decorated career, his exceptional leadership, and his extraordinary bravery in a deadly breach in Afghanistan's Ghazni Province on Aug. 28, 2013. Amidst gunfire and chaos, Plumlee's unyielding courage and selflessness led him to face off against ten insurgents with nothing but a pistol, risking his life to protect his team and the base. His acts of gallantry, far beyond the call of duty, serve as a shining example of military tradition and commitment.
