MSgt. Kevin Holland is a former member of BOTH the Naval Special Warfare Development Group (SEAL Team Six) and 1st Special Forces Operational Detachment-Delta (Delta Force).
MSG Holland started his career off in the SEAL Team 8, before assessing for SEAL Team 6 through Green Team; and serving as an assaulter for roughly 3–4 years, retiring in 1995. After the events of 9/11; MSgt. Holland wished to return to his former Naval command but was urged by a former teammate to assess for the Army Special Missions Unit since its members were already boots-on-the-ground in Afghanistan. After successful completion of A&S/OTC, MSG Holland served as an assaulter with 1st SFOD-D for roughly 10 years
MSG Holland deployed on countless missions and covert operations around the world.
During a 2011 raid in Iraq, he was wounded several times when an insurgent opened fire with a PKM machine gun from 20 yards, hitting him in the chest above his protective armor and paralyzing his left arm.
He dove into an irrigation ditch as the individual kept firing his 200-round belt of ammunition at him hitting his pack multiple times.
As the insurgent came running at him, MSG Holland rose from the water in the irrigation ditch, placed his weapon on its side on a mound of dirt, and began returning fire, wounding the insurgent in the foot.
The insurgent was subsequently captured and MSG Holland was helped up and walked to the EXFIL helicopter like a boss.
