Between the Walls - A Spoken Ballad Honoring the Urban Warfare Center Warriors

David Burnell

“Between the Walls” is a lyrical spoken ballad capturing the true story of the Urban Warfare Center, founded and funded by David Burnell to prepare warriors for the harshest realities of modern conflict. From 2002 to 2012, the UWC provided free, realistic, stress-induced training to military units, federal agencies, and law enforcement, helping them hone their skills in close-quarters battle, hostage rescue, and tactical decision-making under pressure. This ballad honors the men and women who trained within its walls—refining courage, discipline, and readiness for the fight—ensuring they could protect others and return home safely. It is a tribute to service, sacrifice, and the enduring impact of a mission-driven life.
