On this episode of Tactically Acquired, we sat down with Marine Corp Officer Mr. Alexander Mumma. Alex is utilizing the Military Skill Bridge Program to intern with Blue North as he is transitioning out of the Marine Corp. He shares many great tips and tools for others about the program, and the process of accomplishing. He also discussed his transitions from corporate life to the Marine Corp, and the transition back to the civilian mindset. Also, he discusses Officer Candidate School, his motivation to serve, and much more.

Our goal is to document military connected living history in a fun and easy environment. We will capture the stories of our active duty, guard, reservists, veterans, ROTC, their families, and community partners. Sharing their stories, adventures, and journeys across the military life cycle.

The podcast is for anyone interested in joining the military, has been a part of the military, or who wishes to learn more about military life. In addition, we want to bridge the growing military-civilian divide through education.

This is “unfiltered” meaning we will go over the good, the bad, and yes, maybe even the ugly of being a military connected individual.
