  What does it take to survive being wounded in combat, and come back stronger? Former Navy SEAL and decorated wounded warrior Jason Redman joins Don Saladino to share his story of survival, endurance, and resilience. Jason opens up about his journey from a kid obsessed with G.I. Joe to enduring the most grueling training in the military, and eventually surviving a near-fatal ambush in Iraq.
