Tactical to Practical Appearing on the History Channel.

Program Concept:

They say necessity is the mother of invention, and few situations rival military necessity. What is surprising is how often solutions to military problems turn out to be useful in everyday life.

Tactical to Practical is a new series exploring stories of incredible invention, surprising technology, and product innovation born in the midst of conflict that have evolved into new and exciting applications for civilian life. It also profiles technology from the civilian sector that has been added to the toolkit of our military forces.

Each one-hour episode of Tactical To Practical features three individual stories -- fascinating accounts of action, adventure and creative invention -- told in an entertaining manner with first person interviews, historical footage, animations and current lifestyle sequences from around the country. Emphasis is on the “wow” factor featuring compelling history and exciting and visually rich demonstrations of great gadgets. And those demonstrations are often performed by our rugged “I’ll try anything” host, former Navy Fighter Pilot Hunter Ellis. Hunter’s involvement in the stories makes them come alive on screen.

Tactical to Practical is a tribute to the talented men, women and organizations that have earned a place on the pages of history as originators of important contributions to our modern society.

Host Profile:

Host Hunter Ellis is a former Navy Fighter Pilot and carrier aviator with over 2000 hours in the F/A-18 Hornet, TA-4J Skyhawk, T-2C Buckeye, and T-34C Turbo mentor.
