In this episode of Security Halt!, remote pilot Tanner Yackley reveals the overlooked mental health challenges faced by drone operators and the emotional toll of witnessing combat from afar. He discusses the hidden burden of remote warfare, the need for recognition and proper support, and his advocacy through the Remote Warrior initiative. Tanner explains the coping strategies—including “panic packs”—that help manage anxiety, and emphasizes the importance of community, open conversations, and improved resources for veterans dealing with PTSD and trauma.
