On today's  Zero Limits Podcast I chat with Mike Durant former 160th Special Operations Aviation Regiment aka Night Stalkers. Mike deployment to Somalia was portrayed in the Hollywood movie Blackhawk down.

Durant was a member of the 160th Special Operations Aviation Regiment (Night Stalkers) as a Chief Warrant Officer 3.
