Dale Jinks

Dale is a serving member of the Royal Air Force in the UK and is currently based in Cornwall. Over the past 17 years, he has trained thousands of UK military personnel in Survival, Evasion, Resistance to Interrogation and Extraction (SERE) techniques. Before life as a SERE instructor, Dale was a military PT instructor and ensured RAF personnel maintained the required standard of physical fitness.

He is a devout family man, who is blessed with his loving wife Lucy, and two wonderful kids Sonny and Indy. He wrote his first book, Off Grid Kid, to share the many life lessons he has experienced during an extensive military career with a younger audience. Dale is a huge advocate of allowing children and young people to access and enjoy the great outdoors with increased confidence and awareness.

Dale spends most of his spare time relaxing with his family on the beach or rugged moors of southwest England. He hopes to inspire his children to spend less time on electronic devices, and more time immersed in the natural beauty all around.
