Hello, Tyree here, and I have some explaining to do for this episode. This particular episode was recorded months ago, but was somehow mislabeled.  I've spent the last couple of months searching for the episode, but life got busy and the recording fell through the cracks. Today, to my surprise, I found the episode and edited it.  I hopped on Facebook to tell Tripp that I found the episode, texted him and didn't get a response. After a bit of digging, I discovered that he had passed away Oct 3rd, 2022. A couple months ago, he contacted me and asked about the show.  I told him I would keep looking.  I'm terribly sorry that he didn't get a chance to hear this show, but I'm happy that I'm able to put this out to his family and friends. He was one of very few people that aggressively pursued a chat with us, and the show wasn't half bad. Thanks, Tripp "Let him bear the palm who has won it." 

Hey, Tyree here and while reading our mail from you guys, I was contacted by Ban. She is from Iraq, and during 2006-2007, she came into contact with a "Sgt.

On this Episode of "Before I Forget..." Kevin and Tyree talk about the good times and the bad times while living in the barracks.  They also chat about some of their biggest regrets about things they didn't get to do while in Garrison in Germany.

On Today's episode, we battle the Achor Recording Monsters and random dropped calls with William Attig. When things did iron out, William was able to tell us what it was like working in Headquarters Platoon and working the Radio (at all times... horrifyingly) while deployed.

In this episode I (Kevin) talk about my struggle with my ego (at least in one aspect of it) and how I’m looking at trying to make a change in being a better version of myself.

This is my first solo episode where I talk about compartmentalization, or the act of separating traumatic events from reality in an attempt to salvage the sane mind. It's a process we all perform, generally subconsciously, and is used as a coping mechanism. There are benefits to it, but in the big picture, there can be some repercussions as well. So please join me and my ADD brain as I waddle down this rabbit hole and somehow find my way to the end.

We're breaking new ground here on Before I Forget, we have Rose Contreras on the show! Rose is a good friend of Kevin's and just so happened to be stationed in Germany and Deployed to Iraq at the same time. She is our first Female Guest EVER! Its funny how their paths continue to cross through life...  We get a better understanding of what Women have to deal with while being the "FNG". Rose also opens the door to us on some physical tragedies and mental triumphs that she has had to endure after Army Life.  Please like, listen, subscribe and SHARE!
