“I have been testing ThruDark kit for years, in some of the harshest environments on Earth. From the Summits of the world's highest mountains to the Seabed in submersibles. From the Jungles of South America to the deserts of Asia and everywhere in between. When your life depends on quality and integrity of gear, there is only one brand I would trust with my life”
Aldo Kane

Shortly thereafter, Aldo passed one of the most difficult military courses anywhere in the world and qualified as a sniper. As a reconnaissance specialist, Aldo’s skills took him to a number of locations around the world on military operations where he honed his craft in leadership, discipline and survival.
