Hey Jocko,

My nephew is about to deploy with the Marines as a Navy Corpsman. He will be heading to a hostile zone and will be conducting missions with the grunts. I have been feeding him your podcast and information about the lessons you pass on, however, I am not certain he is listening. He is still young an naive (21y/o) and I am not sure what I can do to get him fully plugged into the amazing source of knowledge you bestow upon us. What do you suggest I do to get him committed to disciple and practicing what is preached on your podcast. I myself was a Recon Corpsman, who was once a SEAL candidate, and I recommend your podcast and books to anyone I meet who is joining the service, is currently serving, or a Veteran. Thank you for your continued service to this great nation!

Semper Fortis,
Anibal

I would go the subtle route. Get him a shirt, the psychological warfare album, maybe the audio book. The second time he has to tell a master chief that it is a gift from his Force Recon Uncle and he doesn't listen, he might rethink it.
