Inside the Special Forces Crisis Response Team | Dave Harris

We speak with retired Green Beret Dave Harris about his path from the 82nd Airborne to 3rd Special Forces Group, including deployments to Iraq, Afghanistan, Pakistan, and Africa. We also get into Special Forces selection, crisis-response missions, CQB training, and how he transitioned into training law enforcement after leaving the Army.<br /><br />Today's Sponsors:<br />GhostBed ⬇️<br />https://www.ghostbed.com/house<br />FOR 10% off! <br /><br />Blue Chew ⬇️<br />https://bluechew.com/<br />Get 1 month free when you buy 2 of BlueChew Gold with code "HOUSECALL"<br /><br />VanMan ⬇️<br />Go to https://vanman.shop/teamhouse26 and use code TEAMHOUSE26 for 15%<br />off your first order.<br />For ad free video and audio and access to live streams and Eyes On Geopolitics...JOIN OUR PATREON! <br />https://www.patreon.com/c/TheTeamHouse<br />To help support the show and for all bonus content including:<br />-live shows and asking guest questions <br />-ad free audio and video<br />-early access to shows<br />-Access to ALL bonus segments with our guests<br />Subscribe to our Patreon! ⬇️<br />https://www.patreon.com/TheTeamHouse<br />Support the show here:⬇️<br />https://www.patreon.com/TheTeamHouse<br />___________________________________________________<br />PRE ORDER JACK'S NEW BOOK "THE MOST DANGEROUS MAN" <br />⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️<br />https://www.penguinrandomhouse.com/books/803651/the-most-dangerous-man-by-jack-murphy/paperback/<br />Subscribe to the new EYES ON podcast here:⬇️<br />https://www.youtube.com/@EyesOnGeopoliticsPod/featured<br />__________________________________<br />Jack Murphy's new book "We Defy: The Lost Chapters of Special Forces History" ⬇️<br />https://www.amazon.com/We-Defy-Chapters-Special-History-ebook/dp/B0DCGC1N1N/<br />——————————————————————<br />Or make a one time donation at: ⬇️<br />https://ko-fi.com/theteamhouse<br />Social Media: ⬇️<br />The Team House Instagram:<br />https://instagram.com/the.team.house?utm_medium=copy_link<br />The Team House Twitter:<br />https://twitter.com/TheTeamHousePod<br />Jack’s Instagram:<br />https://instagram.com/jackmcmurph?utm_medium=copy_link<br />Jack’s Twitter:<br /> https://twitter.com/jackmurphyrgr?s=21<br />Team House Discord: ⬇️<br />https://discord.gg/wHFHYM6<br />"Karl Casey @ White Bat Audio"<br />00:00 — Start<br />00:56 — Growing Up in Richmond, California<br />02:29 — Black Hawk Down and Joining the Army<br />05:05 — Arriving at the 82nd Airborne During the Iraq War<br />07:03 — Deciding to Attempt Special Forces Selection<br />10:11 — SFAS and the “Never Quit” Mentality<br />14:06 — Becoming an 18 Bravo in 3rd Special Forces Group<br />16:24 — Training Pakistani Special Operations Forces<br />19:27 — Accused of Plotting to Assassinate Pakistan’s President<br />20:52 — Transitioning Into Advanced Special Operations<br />22:32 — Afghanistan, Human Intelligence, and Building a Remote Base<br />26:21 — Rocket Attacks on the Afghan Fire Base<br />30:03 — Developing a Strategic Source in Afghanistan<br />31:30 — Returning to Afghanistan With Almost No Dwell Time<br />34:29 — Green-on-Blue Attacks and the Reality of Combat<br />37:30 — The Path Into the Crisis Response Force<br />43:50 — Joining the CRF and Training for Hostage Rescue<br />49:10 — Taking Over the Africa Crisis Response Mission<br />59:56 — Deploying Into a Civil War to Protect an Embassy<br />01:06:32 — Planning Emergency Operations in Nigeria<br />01:12:49 — Teaching Special Forces Advanced Urban Combat<br />01:16:35 — Leaving the Army and Training With Vortex Optics<br />01:20:12 — Closing Thoughts and Where to Find Dave Harris<br /><br /><br />Become a supporter of this podcast: <a href="https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-team-house--5960890/support?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=rss">https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-team-house--5960890/support</a>.
