SSgt Tony Musselman was a United States Marine JTAC and Fire Support Man that worked with 5th ANGLICO, 2D Battalion 10th Marine Regiment, 2nd Battalion 6th Marine Regiment and Marine Raider Regiment.

Musselman deployed to Iraq with 5th ANGLICO before heading to 2/10 where he was selected to go to Tactical Air Control Party school to earn his Joint Terminal Attack Controller certification. Immediately following TACP school, Musselman was tapped as a combat replacement for Jason Calo. Calo was another 2/10 JTAC that had been killed in action while participating in Operation Moshtarak with 2/6. Following that deployment, Musselman was recruited to the Marine Raider Regiment to work as a JTAC on their special operations teams.

Musselman would conduct two deployments to Afghanistan with the Marine Raiders. On his first deployment, his team conducted village stability operations and on his second deployment, his team was tasked with conducting direct action raids. We wrap up the interview discussing mental health and some of the issues Musselman dealt with following his multiple combat deployments.
