Video news Package:
Iowa Air National Guard Lt. Col. Justin Faiferlick of Fort Dodge, Iowa recently wrote a book titled “Battle Tested, How to Awaken Your Inner Confidence and stand up to bullying.”

He says it was his experience teaching self-defense that inspired him to write the book because of an increase in bullying.

Faitherlick is a 6th degree Master in Taekwondo and he holds a black belt in Sogo Ryu Bujutsu. He is also the head coach of the United States Air Force Taekwondo team.

As a member of the Iowa Air National Guard Lt. Col. Faiferlick works full time as the Director of Test at the 133rd Test Squadron in his home town guard unit. During his time away from his regular job, Faiferlick can be found teaching self-defense classes with his wife Deann at their Fort Dodge, Iowa gym.
