We discuss Jon's decision to join the Navy in honour of the United States Flag and what it represents after emigrating from South Africa with his parents. We look at the selection process and the mental fortitude required to get through BUDS (Basic Underwater Demolition SEAL) training and Jon opens up about his struggles with survivors guilt, which ultimately led to him into healing through mindfulness and meditation.
