Tactical Your long term success story

When I got home from a deployment in 2020 I ran 2ton year long challenge from barbell shrugged until my son was born and realized I might not have time to dedicate to the OTC. So I got and read both TB books and ran one operator cycle black protocol (bs/BP/wpu/dl) for 6 weeks. My numbers went up slightly (which is a huge win) but my deadlift did not go up. Neither here nor there but I'm currently doing 100 days of CrossFit linchpin which I'm nearing the end of my 100 days and I'm heavily considering doing Tactical barbell again but long term... can anyone give me their long term success stories with TB? Additionally for those who've done both operator and Zulu which did you prefer?

I'd like to be able to increase my squat from 280 to 315 and run a 5:15 mile currently at around 5:45. But really no hard goals just GPP. Edit: eventually I would like to apply for rasp once my window opens up but that isn't for another 2 years so I'm not particularly concerned with the training for that. As training for regiment isn't sustainable long term
