Rep. Jeff Flake, who spoke with Gen Next Members in September, spent a week surviving alone and with minimal supplies on an island in the Pacific Ocean. His reasons for doing it? He said, "As a kid, I used to snicker when I shook an uncallused hand. Now I've got two of my own... But, perhaps the greatest appeal was not knowing what was behind the next wave." Flake, 46, is a fifth term Congressman from Arizona and serves on the House Committee on Foreign Affairs, the Committee on Resources, and the Committee on Oversight and Government Reform.
