8 years between action and frustration in the KSK
Former KSK soldier "Valde" shares his experiences alongside his dog Zeus, reflecting on his eight years in Germany's elite unit. In a candid interview on the LRM Podcast, he discusses the challenges and camaraderie of commando training, missions, and the complexities within the unit, revealing both its strengths and weaknesses.
Former KSK soldier „Valde“ and his dog Zeus - he not only visually resembles “Jon Snow”. For eight years, Valde was part of Germany's spearhead, ready to respond to any conceivable situation.
With endearing directness and in a very "straightforward" manner, he takes Moritz from the LRM Podcast on a journey through this intense time: from the demanding qualification tests through the training to become a commando soldier, the first meeting with his company as a “patched operator”, to his missions - and finally to his last days at the KSK.
Rarely has a former commando soldier spoken so openly about the light and shadow sides of the unit: about camaraderie and willingness to engage as well as about structural problems within the unit.
