When you hear the words, "Benghazi, Libya" you might think of the book, and subsequent movie, 13 hours. You might think of the terrorist attack, the death of a US Ambassador Stevens, and the cover-up that followed.
Today Kris "Tanto" Paranto, a member of the CIA Annex Security Team that responded to the terrorist attack in Benghazi, joins me to talk about what really happened that night, the importance of living your life to a code, how to incorporate "Battle Rhythms" into your life, why every man must choose the "hard right" over the "easy wrong", and how we can all live The Ranger Way.
