http://www.bigspeak.com/joseph-teti.html Joseph Teti is a veteran of both US military and US government special operations units. He is a former Force Recon Marine, Army Special Forces "Green Beret", and a former operator in a highly classified government counter-terrorist unit. Joe Teti is also the co-star, along with Cody Lundin, of Discovery's Dual Survival reality TV show. Together, with their drastically different backgrounds, the survivalists are dropped into some of the planet's most unforgiving terrain in scenarios that could happen to anyone: marooned boaters, lost hikers, stranded mountain climbers. Equipped with minimal gear that would have been carried in the real-life situations, Lundin and Teti must draw upon their arsenal of skills to devise extraordinary ways to use what they can find in their surroundings, as well as ordinary objects, and demonstrate what it takes to stay alive. Teti is a combat veteran of both OIF (Operation Iraqi Freedom) in Iraq, and OEF (Operation Enduring Freedom) in Afghanistan. He planned and conducted a broad range of special operations missions covering the entire operational continuum. These missions gave the President of the United States an option when overt military and / or diplomatic actions were not viable or politically feasible. Operations of this nature required rapid response with surgical application of a wide variety of unique skills, while maintaining the lowest possible profile of U.S. involvement. He participated in numerous classified direct action missions with several Tier 1 SMU's (Special Mission Units). More About Speaker, Joe Teti . . .
