College After Special Forces | Blake Miles | TEDxPSUBerks

How does a Green Beret make the transition from the dynamic, high-intensity world of military special operations to the relatively static, sterile world of academia? Learn more about one Green Beret's growth, challenges, and lessons learned during this major change in lifestyle experienced by our nation's elite military forces as they transition into the civilian world. Also, learn about what one organization devoted to Green Berets is doing to facilitate this process.
