This page is dedicated to those who, through their example, have become particularly valued mentors or inspirers for MNS, as well as to those who have earned their place on this page through significant support for the work of MNS and through particularly commendable efforts in support of the mission of MNS.
MNS founder Nick W. Greger aka Nad Nick
Johnny "Mad Dog" Adair, an extraordinary gentlemen and one of Mad Nick's closest friends. Johnny Adair was brigadier of a Northern Irish Protestant militia and Mad Nick's best man at his wedding in Africa. In addition to the paramilitary training by a former officer of the famous and equally infamous and now disbanded 32nd Battalion of the South African Army, with whom Mad Nick has been close friends for nearly 25 years, it was Johnny "Mad Dog" Adair who most shaped Mad Nick's strategic and tactical skills in his earlier years.
For over a decade now, Johnny "Mad Dog" Adair has turned his back on politics. In any way, there isn't enough space on this page to tell his story, so we'd best let one of Mad Nick's longtime friends have his say through his own book:
Sam Childers aka "Machine Gun Preacher", an extraordinary gentlemen, whose life and work has greatly inspired MNS since nearly two decades.
Lieutenant-General (ret) Roméo A. Dallaire, an extraordinary Gentleman, who is a celebrated advocate for global human rights, as well as a highly-respected author, public speaker, leadership consultant, international advisor, former Canadian Senator, and founder of la Fondation Roméo Dallaire and the Dallaire Institute for Children, Peace, and Security. Throughout his distinguished military career, General Dallaire served most notably as Force Commander of the United Nations Assistance Mission for Rwanda during the 1994 genocide.
General Dallaire provided the United Nations with information about the planned massacre, which ultimately took more than 800,000 lives in less than 100 days; yet, the UN ordered him not to intervene and demanded his withdrawal. General Dallaire, along with a small contingent, including Canadian, Ghanaian, and Tunisian soldiers and military observers, disobeyed that order. They believed they had a moral obligation to stay, to help where they could, and to—at the very least—bear witness to what the rest of the world chose to turn its back.
Armed only with blue berets, General Dallaire saved 32,000 people from brutal massacre, while negotiating with rebels leaders to stop the killing, and begging UN member states and the international media to intervene. If he had received only a few thousand troops and some ammunition to back up his bluffs, General Dallaire likely could have put an end to the bloodshed. Instead, two million human beings were displaced and upwards of a million slaughtered.
General Dallaire’s courage and leadership during this mission earned him the Order of Canada, the Meritorious Service Cross, the United States Legion of Merit, the Aegis Award on Genocide Prevention, and the affection and admiration of people around the globe.
Whether as military commander, humanitarian, speaker, or author, Roméo Dallaire works tirelessly to bring national and international attention to situations too-often ignored, whether the prevention of mass atrocities and the recruitment and use of children in armed conflict, the impact of post-traumatic stress disorder on veterans and their families, or strategic solutions for lasting peace.

"The Diplomat", an extraordinary lady who had a major impact on Mad Nick's educational progress in the fight against human trafficking and transnational organized crime.
Michael Franzese, an extraordinary gentleman who was born in Brooklyn, New York City, on 27 May 1951, the son of Colombo crime family underboss John Franzese. He later moved to Long Island, and he quit studying at Hofstra University to enter a life of crime, acting against his father's wishes.
In 1975, he was "made" as a soldato of the Colombo family, and he became a caporegime in 1980, leading between 300 and 500 soldati. He developed wide-ranging criminal connections, and he became involved with gasoline bootlegging during the 1980s, selling millions of gasoline in partnership with the Russian Mafia of Brighton Beach.
In 1986, he was sentenced to ten years in federal prison, and he was released in 1994; he retired from the Mafia a year later.
Franzese publicly renounced organized crime, became a devoted Christian, created a foundation for helping youth, and became a motivational speaker. Franzese became also the author of several books:

Special appreciation goes to the former President of Gambia. During his presidency, Yahya Abdul-Aziz Jemus Junkung Jammeh, Mad Nick worked for several years in the field of counter-sabotage with Gambian security authorities and had his headquarters in the West African country from 2010 to 2012 and from 2014 to 2016, from where, with the approval of Jammeh's presidential administration, he also headed a branch office of the MNS department THE ORDER 777 for numerous operations in various countries on the African continent, the Caucasus and the Middle East. President Jammeh thus provided Mad Nick with an operational base that facilitated the MNS department THE ORDER 777's ability to carry out important missions and operations during those years. After Yahya Abdul-Aziz Jemus Junkung Jammeh went into exile in Equatorial Guinea in early 2017, Mad Nick wrote an article about Jammeh's presidency, which can be read at the following link, among others:
Nicolai Lilin, an extraordinary gentleman whose book Siberian Education inspired several aspects of the Mad Nick Society`s code of conduct. Nicolai Lilin is a Russian writer of Siberian origin. He was born and grew up in Transnistria, which declared its independence in 1990 but has never been recognized as a state.
In 2004 he moved to Italy.
In his first book, Educazione Siberiana (Siberian Education) from 2009, he describes growing up in a criminal organization with a Siberian background and being "trained". Called the Urki, this group engaged in robbery and theft for decades, primarily on the Trans-Siberian railway lines. Under Stalin, their relatives were deported west from Siberia to Transnistria, where they continued their criminal activities. One of the unwritten laws of the now legendary Urki is the ban on having any contact with state institutions.
The book has been translated into 19 languages and distributed in 24 countries, and has reached the interest of cinema. It became a movie directed by Gabriele Salvatores, starring John Malkovic as Grandfather Kuzja.
In April 2010 he released his second novel, "Free Fall" (or "Sniper").
Lilin's second novel Caduta Libera (Free Fall) is a strongly autobiographical narrative of the author's experiences during the Second Chechen War (1999 to 2009). The story is a first-class source on the Second Chechen War.
He currently writes for magazine L'Espresso and he founded Kolima Contemporary Culture, an exhibition space which also hosts cultural events in Milan. Among its activities he is also a tattoo artist, he studied for many years the traditional Siberian criminal tattoos and learned its techniques and complex codes.

Kyle Rittenhouse, an extraordinary gentlemean of the younger generation who is the epitome of a young, brave and courageous man standing up to lawlessness and criminals. He risked his life to protect citizens and private property from violent and arsonist rioters, ultimately becoming, without intending to, the hero of a generation.
In August 2020, a violent insurgent mob besieged the US city of Kenosha, looting and burning for days with the aim of razing the town to the ground, while police forces withdrew from most parts of the city and left the people of the town to fend for themselves. As residents of the city formed citizen militias to protect their property and the lives of their families, Kyle Rittenhouse, then 17, joined them.
Rittenhouse was guarding a car dealership, casually treating wounded on both sides and providing first aid also to wounded insurgents. Things escalated when a rioter attacked Rittenhouse and grabbed the barrel of Rittenhouse`s rifle to wrest the weapon from him. Rittenhouse pulled the trigger, shooting the attacker. As Rittenhouse ran down Main Street to turn himself in to the police, he was chased by the insurgents, fell, and the mob attempted to lynch him. One of the attackers jumped on Rittenhouse's face with his foot while Rittenhouse was still on the ground, while another attacker hit Rittenhouse in the neck with the edge of a heavy skateboard. Rittenhouse shot the attacker who was trying to smash his head in with the skateboard. Still sitting on the ground, another rioter ran up to Rittenhouse with a gun and pointed the gun at Kyle Rittenhouse's face. Despite being surrounded, being kicked, and being hit in the head, Rittenhouse managed to react in a hundredth of a second and shoot the attacker who was pointing the gun at him in the arm. The insurgents then let go of Rittenhouse, and Rittenhouse turned himself in to the police.
Rittenhouse was charged by Kenosha County prosecutors with multiple criminal counts, including homicide. Rittenhouse pleaded self-defense at trial and was acquitted in November 2021.
Since then, Rittenhouse has been a committed advocate for the civil right to self-defence against attacks by criminals on the lives and private property of ordinary citizens. He wrote the book ‘Aquittet’, which is available at the following link:

Paul Waggener, an extraordinary gentleman who is the creator of Operation Werewolf, a vision and training program for mind and body transformation. Paul also runs a martial arts school in the USA and has published several books. In particular, his book "No surrender - A field manual for creative work with heart" has helped many members of MNS to realize their projects and to push their work forward.
Louis Ferrante, an extraordinary gentleman whose writings and knowledge are highly esteemed by Mad Nick. As a teenager, Ferrante made his reputation as a gang leader. Ferrante and his crew hijacked delivery trucks and drove them to drop-offs all over New York, reselling the merchandise. Ferrante gained the attention of the infamous Gambino crime family. In the early nineties, Ferrante's growing Mafia connections enabled him to commit some of the most lucrative robberies in US history, all by the age of twenty-one.
When the law caught up with Ferrante, he wrote a rap song defending infamous Gambino Family Boss John Gotti, and hired controversial civil rights attorney William Kunstler to defend him. Indictments came from the Secret Service, the Nassau County Organized Crime Force, and the FBI. By 1994, Ferrante faced a life sentence in prison. He pleaded guilty and served nearly a decade in various maximum security prisons after refusing to cooperate against former associates of the Gambino family.
During his incarceration, Ferrante read his first book. He subsequently immersed himself in the study of history and literature. He also learned the art of writing, and penned an historical novel, Aleesa, set in the antebellum South.
Ferrante successfully appealed his own conviction from his prison cell, a case that is cited in courtrooms across the country.
Ferrante's memoir, "Unlocked: a Journey From Prison to Proust," published by Harper Collins Publishers, tells the story of his meteoric rise in the Mafia, his time in prison, and how he had reinvented himself as a writer.
Furthermore, Ferrante became an award-nominated television host, who also works behind the camera. Ferrante's television series, Inside the Gangsters' Code premiered on February 27, 2013. Each hour-long episode follows Ferrante as he explores different gang cultures around the world. Inside the Gangsters' Code aired on Discovery Channel in over 195 countries and in multiple languages. Ferrante wrote, hosted, narrated, and co-produced the series.

Captain Brian Steidle, an extraordinary gentleman whose work and actions for justice and humanity has had a significant impact and influence on many missions and operations of MNS since 2007. Therefore, Captain Brian Steidle not only receives a spot on our Appreciation Page but also his own tribute page:
A tribute to a man whose legend was first encountered by Mad Nick at a training camp during his first trip to South Africa when Mad Nick was just 22 years old in 1999. Eeben Barlow, an extraordinary gentleman, was one of the men whose counter-insurgency knowledge was invaluable when Mad Nick led Operation Nazarene against ISIS in Iraq from 2014 to 2017.
Lt-Col. Eeben Barlow is a former member of the apartheid-era South African Defence Force and was the second-in-command of its elite special forces 32 Battalion Reconnaissance Wing. He later served in Military Intelligence as an agent handler and later as an operative and region commander in the ultra-secret Civil Cooperation Bureau (CCB), a covert division of Special Forces.
Barlow founded the private military contractor (PMC) Executive Outcomes (EO) in 1989, and was involved in providing counter-insurgency as well as peacekeeping forces in Africa and Asia. Barlow resigned from Executive Outcomes in July 1997 and the company closed its doors on 31 December 1998.
Barlow is also the former chairman of STTEP (Specialised Tasks, Training, Equipment & Protection), but also lectures on military matters at defence colleges and universities. Some consider Eeben Barlow the grandfather of modern private military companies as the founder of Executive Outcomes.
Born in Northern Rhodesia (present-day Zambia), Barlow started his schooling in Francistown, Botswana and moved to South Africa in the mid-1960s. After matriculating in 1972, he joined the SADF. He was commissioned in the SA Corps of Engineers where he served as the Engineer Commander for the 53 and 54 Infantry Battalions in the South West African Operational area. Barlow was recruited to serve with 32 Battalion Special Forces in Angola. Although 32 Battalion operated independently, the SADF was supporting the UNITA rebel movement. Subsequently, he was assigned to SADF's Directorate of Military Intelligence and then to the CCB where he commanded Region 5, an area that encompassed Europe and the Middle East.
In 1989, Barlow established the company Executive Outcomes (EO). Executive Outcomes initially trained SADF Special Forces in covert operations and intelligence gathering. He was also contracted to establish and train a covert group for the De Beers diamond company in Botswana Debswana with the aim of infiltrating and penetrating the illegal diamond-buying and smuggling syndicates.
In 1993, Barlow’s Executive Outcomes was contracted to provide security for Ranger Oil in the northern Angolan town of Soyo where Ranger Oil were trying to recover drilling equipment stored on the harbour. The harbour, in turn, was under UNITA rebel control. To achieve this, Barlow recruited men who had been retrenched from the SADF elite units as well as Koevoet.
Shortly thereafter, Executive Outcomes was awarded the contract to assist the Angolan Armed Forces (FAA) with training, strategic and tactical advice in an effort to end the war with UNITA. Despite a sustained negative campaign against it, Executive Outcomes accomplished its contract and within a year, UNITA had virtually been destroyed on the battlefield. This led to the signing of the Lusaka Protocols.
Executive Outcomes likewise assisted the Sierra Leonean government in destroying the rebel movement RUF in that country.
Barlow and his company also assisted the Indonesian Special Forces in the hostage-release operation in Irian Jaya in 1996.
Barlow was a keynote speaker during the establishment of the British Army’s rapid reaction forces. He also delivered a paper on the role of PMCs to the US Department of Defence in Washington.
Barlow publicly made it known that he supported a bill to regulate PMCs and Executive Outcomes provided several guidelines to the South African government during the formulation of a bill to regulate such companies.
Executive Outcomes was one of the first companies to be awarded a licence by the South African government to operate as a government-approved PMC.
Barlow became the appointed Chairman of STTEP International in 2009. In 2014, former President Goodluck Jonathan of Nigeria hired STTEP to provide training and tactics to the Nigerian Army for fighting the Boko Harem terrorist organization. The training was showing progressing with the start of taking back land Boko Harem had newly occupied.
Eeben Barlow, resigned as chairman from STTEP on 30 September 2020. Barlow continues to work as consultant and lecturer and his retirement seems very far away.
Shi Heng Yi, an extraordinary gentleman who is a popular Shaolin Master whose teachings have had a major influence on Mad Nick's mindset in recent years. Mad Nick was once quoted as saying, "The teachings of Shi Heng Yi became part of the foundation upon which I carry out my mission to serve freedom and justice."
Shi Heng Yi was born in Germany to Asian parents. While growing up, he was drawn to martial arts. At the young age of 4, Shi was enrolled by his father at the nearby Shaolin Temple in Kaiserslautern. It was here, at the Shaolin Kung Fu School, that he began to practise Kung Fu and fell in love with the art, which also involved mental and physical training and behavioural development. Later, he was also drawn to Qi Gong and Shaolin Rou Quan.
In 2001, Shi became a student of Shaolin masters Da Shi Yanlin, Master Shi Yan Bao, Master Shi Yan Xin, Shi Yan Fei and Shi Ya Hai.
In 2011, after completing his studies, Shi wanted to build a Shaolin temple in Otterberg and found a site where he wanted to build the temple. Although the land was for sale, he could not afford it as he had just finished his studies. Fortunately, a bank granted him a loan and he founded the Shaolin Temple Europe in Otterberg.
Until 2017, Shi struggled financially to make the temple profitable, but thanks to the monastery's growing popularity, he was able to turn the tables.
As of 2023, he serves as the Executive Headmaster of Shaolin Temple Europe in Otterberg, Kaiserslautern, Germany.

Inspired by his spiritual ideas, MNS released its first music CD with 23 songs in 2025, for which he was awarded an honorary distinction by MNS.
Denzik C., an extraordinary gentleman and honorary member of MNS and was originally assigned the temporary task of assisting Mad Nick as a driver and interpreter during a mission in Eastern Europe. Over the years, however, this developed into a truly eventful and adventurous friendship, with Denis often providing wide-ranging support far beyond his original assignment, making him one of the most valued members of the MNS.
Jenny K., an extraordinary landy and honorary member of MNS who was Mad Nick's most fearless bodyguard and interpreter for several years during a number of operations in Central Africa. Jenny, who at first glance would not be considered a warrior, proved herself to be a loyal and pain-resistant fighter alongside Mad Nick, whom even the jungle in the combat zone of the Democratic Republic of Congo could not stop from successfully completing a mission. During a violent confrontation surrounded by a lynch mob, she covered Mad Nick's back in the midst of the chaos and did her job as a bodyguard by punching a hole in the instigator's head with a high heel shoe in her hand, thereby securing the escape from the violent crowd.
