In this gripping episode of the Tango Tango podcast, host Lloyd Knight sits down with retired Army Colonel John Thompson, a veteran Night Stalker and one of the mission leads behind the historic raid that killed Osama Bin Laden. John takes listeners deep inside the operations of Task Force 160, the U.S. Army’s elite special operations aviation unit, sharing the mindset, logistics, and extraordinary preparation that went into one of the most consequential missions in modern history. John also opens up about his upbringing as a Gold Star son, his roots in Georgia, and how a letter from his late father shaped the path of a 30-year military career. From a busted wrist before flight school to leading elite helicopter assault teams in Desert Storm, Iraq, Afghanistan, and ultimately Abbottabad—John’s journey is a testament to grit, humility, and excellence under pressure.
