This week in the studio my guest had yearned to be a Royal Marine Commando since childhood, and in 1986 he enlisted and did just that. After passing the grueling training course my guest earned his coveted Green Beret in 1987, but that’s where the real story begins. My guest spent the next 30 years of his life on Active Duty serving in every rank from Recruit to Captain in the Royal Marines. He has participated in combat rotations to Kosovo, Afghanistan, and was in the lead element in the invasion of Iraq. After Active Duty this guest transitioned into the reserves but at the same time completed a degree in acting and has been featured on stage and screen in roles that were designed to spotlight mental health and PTS in former and active soldiers. His latest endeavor is an absolutely incredible film called SUNRAY which was created by a collection of former Royal Marine Commandos turned filmmakers and actors. This movie challenges the perception of mental health and the struggles that soldiers face when reintegrating back into civilian life. It is with great excitement that I introduce into the studio Tip Cullen. @SunraySeries
