Running the Buffalo Arm in Ramadi | Jay Kroeplin on Route Clearance, Trauma, and Healing

In this full episode of Echoes Unfiltered, Sam Stratton sits down with Jay Kroeplin, a Buffalo arm operator from Ramadi. Jay breaks down what it really meant to run the Buffalo, the level of trust inside a route clearance crew, and the mistakes that could get people hurt or killed.

Jay also walks through the mission where Mitch, Ski, and Bill were hit, what he saw that day, and the moments that still stay with him. From combat to coming home, this conversation covers PTSD, survival, brotherhood, and the hard but necessary work of healing.

This isn’t a highlight reel. It’s an honest conversation between two veterans who lived it.
