On this episode (Episode 29) of Veteran Et Cetera, the host, Mike Kim, provides a review of the Fox Television new military reality show "Special Forces: World's Toughest Test". With a smashing 2.7 million viewers last Wednesday for episode One "Test of Character". This is a relevant television show for civilians, veterans , and active duty personnel. Listen to this audio essay and let me explain how this show is not just pulp mass media hype. Instead, the show provides small windows into military life.
Rudy Reyes (ex-Marine Recon/Sniper) is lead military guide along with Sergeant Major Mark Billingham (Britain's elite of elite SAS Special Air Service), Remi Adeleke (elite Navy SEAL Frogman), and Jason Fox (SBS Special Boat Service Team Leader and British Royal Commando). This elite cohort of training cadre lead 16 entertainment celebrities like Dr. Drew and baseball hall of famer Mike Piazza are shocked into getting a taste of the intensity of elite forces military training. Each Wednesday at 8pm EST, you can view the trials and triumphs of the 16 participants. I pose the question: How can a military reality tv show produce important meanings tied to real military training narratives for society? Check out the show!
