The US Air Force is known for flying,  however, there are 2 known ground-based special operations units: Pararescue and Combat Control.  In this episode, I highlight Combat Controllers.  

Also known as CCTs, these men operate along-side other US military special ops groups to bring in fire from above, control air traffic above targets, request humanitarian aid in disaster zones and much more.  They are specially trained in many diverse environments and are unique to any special operations groups the US has to offer.  This episode goes into their history, capabilities and much more.

In today's episode, Tom Calver and Ryan Halliday explain the different routes for international Doctors wanting to get onto the Specialist Register; CCT, CESR and CESR CP.
