Dropping Danger Close with F-15E Strike Eagle Fighter Pilot Tom Moser (Round 2)

Join our weekly Combat Check-In Newsletter (www.combatstory.com/newsletter) to get a short email from Ryan for people who love and support our veterans, service members, and their families. It has info on a significant event in military and/or intel history, a funny military joke, an update on a current event I'm following, something I'm doing that week in my life, a book I'm reading, a look at an upcoming interview, a reflection on a past episode and more!

Today we hear round two of our two-part Combat Story from seasoned F-15E Strike Eagle fighter pilot Tom "Gunny" Moser. Moser would go on to be a Weapons Fighter School graduate (the Air Force's Top Gun), in addition to a Squadron and Wing Weapons Officer, and Squadron Commander.

In this episode, we dig into several combat experiences from the F-15's front seat and what makes this aircraft so lethal. This includes the very first strikes into Syria in 2014 taking on ISIS where Gunny helped plan these missions and lead some of the first attacks into theater.

If you didn't hear round one with Gunny, he's finally made it to his Squadron after three years as a Marine infantryman (hence the call sign!) and a stint as a Police Officer (something he loved). He's got an incredibly supportive spouse who told him to not come home if he didn't get F-15s because there are only winners in their house!!

Gunny is good friends with both former guest Ryan "Stinger" Fishel and our next guest coming in one week - Mike "Pako" Benitez - another F-15E Strike Eagle aviator. Stay tuned after our interviews with Pako to hear Gunny and Pako interviewed together about their time downrange as a front seater and back seater as standard bearer Weapons Officers!
