It is Friday, and we have a brand new episode of the Armed & Ready Podcast! Today's episode has Randall Parkes, a former Marine and Real Estate Agent for Compass.

Randall Parkes shares his experience servicing in Afghanistan and helping to escort people out after the invasion of the Taliban. His first deployment was in 2007, and this was one that stuck out to him the most. During this time, he was also able to meet his interpreter, who he helped escape through using the "bro call." 

Along with that, Randall also dives deeper into the relationship between the military and their interpreters, as well as the Afghan citizens. Tune in to listen to Randall's humbling experience.
