The Learning Leader Show With Ryan Hawk

Episode 020: Matt Eversmann – How To Lead Soldiers Into Battle (Black Hawk Down) I was truly honored to speak with an American Hero for this episode of The Learning Leader Show.  Matt Eversmann led soldiers into one of the most dangerous places in the world.  His story was told in the book and movie, “Black Hawk Down.”  His specific character was played by Josh Hartnett.  We discussed the story behind what really happened in Mogadishu… Matt Eversmann has received many military decorations, including the Army Service Ribbon, the National Defense Service Ribbon, eight Army Achievement medals, and four Army Commendation medals. For his service in Somalia, he was awarded the Bronze Star Medal with Valor device and the Combat Infantryman's Badge. Before his retirement in early 2008, Eversmann served 18 months in Iraq leading an elite Army Ranger force.
