Rory Hamill served as an infantryman in the United States Marine Corps, deploying to Afghanistan with Golf Company, 2nd Battalion, 8th Marine Regiment. That deployment would change Rory's life in many ways and has helped him develop into a man who has decided to never stop working on himself.
Jack Mandaville is no
stranger to Task & Purpose and decides to really open up on the latest episode of Task & Purpose Radio.
Having served as a Marine, the show opens with Jack discussing the current
spike of suicides affecting the active ranks of the Marine Corps. As the group discusses the warrior ethos of the Corps stopping Marines from getting help, Jack talks about his own time getting shot as a 19 year old Marine in training. It's kind of hilarious.

Bush's Military Service Initiative Advisory Council, the Executive Ambassador for the Green Beret Foundation, and sits on the Leadership Board of the Global War on Terror Memorial Foundation.
On the latest episode of Task & Purpose Radio, we sit down with Marty Skovlund Jr., a former Army Ranger who is now editor in chief of Coffee or Die Magazine.
Some of the topics Marty covers, alongside former Army Capt. Meaghan Mobbs and Task & Purpose's Zach Iscol and Pat Baker, are the controversy of Gillette's latest viral marketing campaign, the Black Israelites at the Lincoln Memorial protests...
And then there was that time Marty accidentally dropped his pants while on a live stream. Well, that was awkward.
