A living legend among the Australian Special Forces community, he spearheaded the ability for 2 Commando Regiment to stand on its own, separate from Australian SAS ( SASR) and achieve a full trade model for itself. Nick has been there, seen and done it all, and he has seen firsthand how it takes its toll on soldiers. To this end, he runs an Air BnB in France and it is open to all Veterans who need to get away and have that break from “life” and hopefully help them with their personal challenges. His Passion is “to help people as much as I can” and I look forward to meeting him in person in the future.
