Ep. 112: Greg Coker - The Most Deadly Weapon On Any Battlefield
Unbeatable Podcast with Jeff Struecker

08-Dec-2023
Night Stalker pilots are some of my greatest heroes, and many times, my life has depended on their insanely accurate shooting abilities. Greg Coker and I fought together in Iraq and Afghanistan, and he was an AH-6 little bird gun pilot in the 160th Special Operations Aviation Regiment for 15 years. VERY few helicopter pilots on the planet make it to that level, and his no-quit attitude, skill, and commitment make him unbeatable.
You’ll hear:
- What it was like to go through the grueling Green Platoon training that only a handful of pilots finish
- What he and I both agree is the most deadly weapon on the battlefield
- His story of surviving being shot down in Iraq and narrowly escaping his helicopter on fire
- What kept him getting back in the cockpit again and again despite 42 surgeries and having 47 pieces of titanium in his body
- Why he started Blades for Brothers, a non-profit for veterans and first responders
