Adventure Can be Hard – Mentally & Physically

Veteran Voices

The experience each person has in the military varies by branch, unit, and whether they served in wartime or peacetime. But there are also differences between fully enlisting and serving in the National Guard, or – as the British Army calls it – the Territorial Army.

In this interview, host Scott Luton speaks with two Royal Engineer veterans from the British Territorial Army: Dan Reeve (who regular Supply Chain Now listeners will know from Esker) and Rob Chell. They served together in the same troop, and although they didn’t initially get along, they found a way to “figure it out” in the end and became good friends.

Dan and Rob joined Scott to share their stories and thoughts about:

• Why serving in peacetime can be more dangerous than serving in wartime

• The importance of decompression – and the process associated with settling down from a high state of alertness

• Why even journeys taken side by side can be very different from the perspective of each traveler
