Awareness/Mindset/Q&A get together with Bob "Ninja" Porras. Delta/CIA guy. Thursday April 18,2024

[Blaster229]

Thanks again Blaster. Great evening.

Thank you. Not bad for a little get together chat. We're talking about putting together a more structed class thing for the future. I'd like to combine an emergency prep/surveillance detection with a range day somewhere.

Bob and Laura had a long day. They had been on the road for about 9 hours. I know they're beat this morning.

I appreciate your efforts in putting this together, Sir.

I'd be interested in seeing the more structured event. Date depending, I'd be in.

Glad you got out!

Yeah I keep talking about these bigger longer events but then I ball park the cost, and don't see most people doing it.

Something like 1 day classroom of some subjects then day 2 at the range. Catered lunch at the range and AAR dinner each night at the hotel.
2 nights hotel, breakfast ,lunch, and dinner, paying Bob, and whatever else, it would have to be at least $1,000 per person. Probably closer between that and 1500. "The MDS Cohesion Event".

I'll start a poll.

Great night. Eye opening conversation for probably 99% of the population. Thanks Blaster for putting this together.

I'll be into at least that for the 2day I'm headed to in a couple months. I typically attend one course of that expense level every year. Between facility scheduling and Bob scheduling, this would probably have to be a late 2024 or early 2025 thing anyway. Plenty of time to budget.

I may be unusual in that I'm used to fending for myself on the sustainment side at courses. Some may prefer a greater level of amenities.

Maybe your poll will establish the level of interest/commitment.

Great talk and reminder of how (won’t speak for anyone but myself) I could be more vigilant. Thanks to Laura I also felt heard as a lady haha. It was such a pleasure meeting her and Bob. Thanks @Blaster229 for setting this up! Also the brisket Reuben

No one said there would be brisket Reubens.

That changes everything!

I didn't get the brisket reuben, just the regular brisket sandwich which was outstanding.

Time well spent
