In Part 2 of this gripping series, retired Chief Master Sergeant and Suffolk County Police Officer Jack Brehm returns to share more harrowing and inspiring stories from his extraordinary career in the New York Air National Guard’s 106th Rescue Wing.
From enduring SERE training in Washington State—complete with evasion exercises, mock POW camps, and psychological testing—to mastering high-altitude rescues, cold-weather combat medicine, and pararescue operations around the world, Brehm walks us through the trials that shaped him.
He recalls elite training in France and Alaska, daring rescues 1,500 miles out to sea, the brotherhood forged in survival, and the enduring impact of losing close friends in the line of duty.
With reflections on family sacrifice, military camaraderie, and the mental strength needed to persevere, this episode is a powerful continuation of Jack’s journey—and a tribute to the resilience of those who serve.
