MEET THE TEAM
Whether its Holmes and Watson, Lewis and Clark, or Smith and Wesson, literature and history record how daring partners accomplished more together than they ever could on their own. The same is true for the collaboration between Danny and Jay. When the insights and experiences of a Special Services operator were combined with those of a cultural anthropologist who spent years living among hard-core groups in the Islamic world, a unique training course was established. And that was just the beginning. The teamwork continues as innovative solutions to emerging security challenges are developed and shared.
