Top Game Episode 21 - MGySgt Vince Quinteros

Top Game Podcast

In Episode 21, I interview one of my closest friends in the Marine Corps, MGySgt Vince Quinteros. In the exchange, we cover a timespan from the beginning of our careers to his current billet as the Operations Chief of Marine Cryptologic Support Battalion. During our conversation, he highlights the complexity inherent to being a linguist in uniform and having to balance competing priorities. We discuss the aggressive posture he adopted to get on deployments that later became core experiences that molded his career. He reminds the audience to cherish every moment because our time in uniform is a fleeting experience. Master Guns encourages each of us to avoid a risk-averse posture, particularly when an opportunity is identified. In line with his pugilistic nature, he jabs back during the conversation about the fact that someone needs to interview me.
