YouTube Description
as posted by the channelPeaches, Trent, and Jason Attinger—aka AT—are back in the team room for one of the most legit combat rescue conversations we’ve ever had.
AT didn’t just talk about rescue… he lived it. Former United States Air Force Pararescue operator. Commissioned officer. Fairchild Republic A-10 Thunderbolt II pilot. And now one of the guys helping preserve the Sandy mission when the military needs it most.
This episode goes deep into DUDE44—what happened, how combat search and rescue actually unfolds in denied territory, what a Sandy really does, why the Hog still matters, and why America better not forget how to recover its own.
Then the boys get into pilot boards, Guard hiring, A-10 extension drama, acquisition failures, and who’s actually going to carry the rescue mission forward when the Hog finally retires.
Bottom line: aircraft matter… but it’s still humans willing to stay in the fight that bring people home.
