About this listen
In this episode of Blue Yonder, Jacob reconnects with his first Air Force roommate, Jeff Tucker, to reflect on nearly three decades of friendship, service, and transition.
Jeff shares his unexpected path to the Air Force at age 23, his experiences as a recruiter, and the highs and lows of military life — including leadership challenges, post-9/11 deployments, and tough career decisions.
They talk openly about transition struggles, the loss of identity after service, divorce, depression, and how Jeff ultimately rebuilt his life through real estate and community in East Tennessee.
This episode is a candid, often humorous look at military culture, personal growth, and what it takes to move forward when the uniform comes off.
🎙 Topics include: – Real estate after retirement – Leadership lessons from basic training – The mental toll of military missteps – Building identity beyond the rank – Advice for service members nearing the end
