Mark “Oz” Geist returns for part 2 of this 2-part ROTM and picks up where he left off in telling the story the “13 Hours Of Benghazi”. This episode wraps up with stories from an amazing hunting trip he took with Donald Trump, Jr and Eric Trump to benefit his non-profit organization, Shadow Warriors Project. 

Oz continues his detailed explanation of what led up to the concentrated battle he and other former Special Forces fought on September 11, 2012. He recalls how lessons he learned as a young hunter proved to be very helpful as they were outnumbered by a heavily armed militia. 

During his recovery process, Oz learned that “contractors” like himself are only paid while they are at work- regardless of injury. This led he and his wife to create, “Shadow Warriors Project” a non-profit organization which helps injured private contractors when they get hurt and can’t support their families. They also have a K9 component which helps wounded veterans by connecting them with a service dog. He shares a compelling story of hunting near the Arctic Circle with Eric and Donald Trump, Jr as part of a fund-raising effort for “Shadow Warriors Project”. Oz faced down a large wolf that had stalked their party. 

The episode continues with ROTM’s host, Keith Mark and Oz sharing stories from hunting camps they have shared and questions from our audience.  Oz explains his preference for predator hunting and the need for predator hunting to help all conservation efforts. They reflect on their mutual faith in God and the need for good to fight evil. 

Oz commends Keith for founding, Hunter Nation and the shock he felt when he first heard from then-candidate, Donald Trump that hunters “don’t vote”. Keith explains that was part of the inspiration behind Hunter Nation and that research data shows that is true. They both reflect on the success of the “Hunt The Vote” project they worked tirelessly on in 2020 and how it helped over 500,000 hunters get registered and vote their values in that election. 

Oz closes by reminding everyone of the importance of access to public land for hunting and all forms of recreation and relaxation.
