Peter: “there's a lot of people go in with the, you know, the ideology of, you know, the romanticized vision of Call of Duty warfare. And then they find out what it's really like me personally, I've been through a couple and I'm good. If I never have to go back to another one.”
Peter: “Yeah, so right now the most effective thing for us to do is give these guys equipment, find the people that can train them, and give them some training, some baseline training, not going into the war zones or anything like that, not going in saying, Hey, I'm a hero, and I can fix all this.”
Peter: “Instead of spending on a plane ticket and sitting around at the bar waiting for somebody to do put that put that money toward a group that's actually being effective.”
Peter: “there's a lot of smaller groups, I say the most effective ones are the ones you don't hear about. They also have the hardest time raising money, because everybody wants to see the stuff on the media.”
Peter: “Everything that we do is so humanitarian-based, like even the guys on the ground, no weapons, no kit, you're just there to facilitate. You're there to meet with people to encourage them.”
Peter: “I really am focused on trying to get these guys the equipment that they need, so that they can be effective for a long period of time and save as many lives as they possibly can.”
