Marion Eggers spent more than 20 years in the United States Marine Corps, including years working as an Explosive Ordnance Disposal technician in Iraq and Afghanistan.But this conversation goes far beyond war stories.We talk about the people who shaped him, the mindset that carried him through dangerous work, what it means to live with intention, the cost of losing friends, the Afghanistan withdrawal, marriage, purpose, faith, doubt, and the questions that remain after a life spent in service.Marion is thoughtful, funny, candid, and willing to sit with hard questions without pretending to have easy answers.This is a conversation about war, sacrifice, identity, belief, and what it means to keep moving forward when the life you imagined changes.If you enjoy long-form conversations about people, purpose, belief, resilience, and the experiences that shape who we become, subscribe to Rusty’s World.
