Matt Virnau, USAF Combat Controller on becoming an operator and overcoming adversity

Matt comes from an agriculture/equine background and it is where I first met him. He has a great story of perseverance and overcoming what we perceive as failure. He has an inspiring story of coming back from not meeting the swim time requirements while in ParaRescue training in the Air Force to becoming a Special Operations Combat Controller and Honor Graduate of his pipeline class then joining the 22nd Special Tactics Squadron in Tacoma WA and being deployed to Afghanistan on support of the war on terror.

Matt now serves as a coach/mentor to the candidates preparing for Assessment and Selection at the Special Warfare Schoolhouse in San Antonio, Tx. He also is the Head Strength and Conditioning Coach at Geneva School of Boerne, Tx and pursuing his M.S. in Performance Psychology and the Team Leader of ForgedHP.com
