A New Zealander based in the USA- just outside of Memphis, Tennessee, shares his journey from the New Zealand SAS (NZSAS) in the 1980’s to establishing a specialized training school for high-end military and law enforcement personnel in the US.

With over 4 decades of experience in teaching and training in the US he spoke about the niche focus of his company on professional Tactical and Breaching training for military, law enforcement, and other government agencies.

We spoke about the transition from New Zealand to the vastly different scale of operations in the US. Alan reflected on the continuous learning environment in America and his adaptation to the new training landscape, emphasizing the importance of specialized skills and constant improvement.

His experience with NZSAS, which included both domestic and international missions, provided him with a unique perspective on special operations and the importance of advanced training methods-  that demanded precision, quick thinking, and a deep understanding of tactical operations.

After a distinguished career in NZ, Alan decided to leave for several reasons. He sought new challenges and wanted to leverage his expertise to make a broader impact on the field of tactical training.

He saw an opportunity to fill a gap in the training of military and law enforcement personnel in the United States, where he could apply his specialized knowledge to improve their operational capabilities.

He has built a reputation for excellence and become a respected figure in the tactical training community.

Alan's dedication to his craft and his commitment to continuous improvement serve as the foundation for his company's success and the success of those he trains.

A Great yarn with a true down to earth, good Kiwi Bloke and a Professional Operator, I hope you enjoy the show as much as I did.
