Brad! Good to see you! You were my AOIC with JD in Charlie platoon at SDVT-2. I remember the day we lost Danny. You were the first one to tell me. What a terrible day that was. 28 June 2005.
I know it’s not much, but thanks Adam!!! Thanks for putting EVERYTHING on the line!!! 💪💪🇺🇸👍👍 If you’re ever in Houston, whether it’s you or your family, lunch/dinner is on me
@fightrrrrr Thank you. I was one of the Techs (not SEAL) in Brad and Danny's platoon. I didn't get to deploy with them, unfortunately. I switched to Army in 2006 and went Special Forces instead.
Same. This was a great episode. He is tactical down to the point of basic speech. Its amazing how people like this never make it far in the run for country leadership...
We saw one of these units right after the hunter Sub dropped out of sight in Florida from Kings Bay Naval Station. We 1st got buzzed by a little bird, fully armed, came out of no where. We were only 100 feet or less watching from a campground. I told her to keep her hands up and don't move. They were looking right at us, scared and excited at the same time. I slowly raised my right arm saluted and shot the I'm cool sign. They disappeared as quickly as they came, full six man team. Then I told her to watch behind the sun She thought I was kidding. They operators did a quick pop up to look all around, couldn't have been a few seconds and disappeared. I was in awe the whole time. My Cousin worked hunters and boomers for many years in the Navy. Lot of Navy in my family. One of the coolest things I've ever saw. God bless you guys who do this, your truly Badass.
Knighted? Easy tiger.... He won the Distinguished Service Cross, one down from the VC. Equivalent of the US Navy Cross that he also won for the same action.
great interview,I worked in dev gru and asked you guys for a ride when you appeared behind our d.s.r.v. vessel , the pilot responded with,,,, just go down to the quarterdeck and sign up...
Mapping, training , and in combat multiple things. Most of the time you’re doing some kinda of navigation or gear working, sometimes you just are getting dive hours in, this is based on my opinion and things I’ve heard seals say
They will also launch off a sub near a coastline- too far to swim in. They can use the SDV to get to shore. Do their business and return to the sub. No one sees them coming that way -
Likely a rebreather unit made for long dives. It recycles the air you breath out. There are several kinds such as the Draeger where your offgas goes through a scrubber that filters out the CO2. On the SDV is quite possible that they plug into air canisters installed on the vehicle rather than using their own unit. I wonder how much (or little) nitrogen they ongas with these units, cuz 10 hours is a long dive. They likely stay shallow to reduce nitrogen load, but still...
No offense to any of you but our tech and military is nothing now that we know what's flying around up there.... Might as well 🤷 give up and change our ways
A respectful question: once you've proven yourself in these operations, why doesn't the NAVY just use dry suits to further extend your endurance? Are they just masochistic?
Too bulky, constant changes in pressure, you aren’t always on full face piece and are changing from one dive apparatus to another (Scuba to MK-25 to MK-16)

Shout out to Ryan for continually interviewing some of the most interesting people in our society.
This has to be one of the manliest men i've ever seen
Facts..
This are the guys we dream to be like.
Or just real people like you will never come in contact with. Some of us just actually live life while people like you think it's interesting.
These are great interviews. It’s rare to ask questions to get answers instead of making some point. Especially rare among college trained journalists.
Love the fact that the community is so small… they all know each other and hear stories from different angles and lens

Adam, great to hear from you old friend.
I hope you are well these days. I can’t believe next year will be 20 years since we lost Danny.
Shawn is now so rich he can interview people who were his officers. Shawn wears 1000k cufflinks. Love it!!!
Fantastic story telling. Great info, but not over the line. Great job guys.
I just like listening to Capt Bradley Geary, great speaker.
Same. This was a great episode. He is tactical down to the point of basic speech. Its amazing how people like this never make it far in the run for country leadership...
Captain Geary was an Olympic level swimmer. Set and broke many records at Annapolis. Career driven indeed.

Capt. Geary, I remember watching him as a member of BUDS class 234.
I fixed periscopes in Norfolk and the USS James K. Polk and USS Narwhal had SDV's at the time.
Stephen Bass (the Navy SEAL that was Knighted) was attached to the UK Tier 1 Special Boat Service (‘SBS’), not the SAS
ok 👍
Knighted? Easy tiger....
He won the Distinguished Service Cross, one down from the VC.
Equivalent of the US Navy Cross that he also won for the same action.
@@mvubu68231. Medals are earned, not won. It’s not a prize. 2. Bass was knighted.
@@davidciscoHe really wasn’t, doesn’t take away from his bravery or the dit. Not something an American would receive an honorary knighthood for.
That OG MW2 mission was a fun one so hearing about more about the SDV was awesome!
Shawn you should get Dean Scott on from the Tier 1 Special Boat Service (‘SBS’).
Yes absolutely
great interview,I worked in dev gru and asked you guys for a ride when you appeared behind our d.s.r.v. vessel , the pilot responded with,,,, just go down to the quarterdeck and sign up...
I could listen to this guy all day.
Loved this episode thinking back to watching him go through BUDS to where he is today is really cool.🇺🇸💪🏼🙏🏼
Sub to Stealth vehicle is straight out of OG bond movies super cool, though sounds terrifying 😂
Shout out to all the everyday heroes who appear on the SRS; so proud to be an American🙏🏻🇺🇸❤️
Ensign Geary! Pushing them out for having candy in his gear. Wow.
I like this guy, semper fi brother
love this show🤠🤙
I bet they saw some wild shit being in the ocean that long
that classic movie trailer voice
How's this SDV on sonar?
These are probably older then you think.
Essentially under water SCOUTS?
Can it carry torpedos or attack?
How do the LCD screens on the SDV withstand the pressure and cold?
Recreational dive computers easily go to 300ft depth which is far beyond where the SEALs operate.
fascinating
As for the sonar, you’re welcome.
Man feel bad for the dude thats gotta meet him dating his daughter he looks like normal buisness dude but he definitely means other business😅
"pf changs for a reception, afterwards"
that sounds like a man i would love to know
6:13 ::::Laughs in boston tea party:::::
Thank you but we prefer it our way.
What do they do underwater for so long by the way...
Any idea ?
Mapping, training , and in combat multiple things. Most of the time you’re doing some kinda of navigation or gear working, sometimes you just are getting dive hours in, this is based on my opinion and things I’ve heard seals say
Also training how to attach charges to detonate , etc.
They will also launch off a sub near a coastline- too far to swim in.
They can use the SDV to get to shore. Do their business and return to the sub.
No one sees them coming that way -
SBS , M squadron...
I saw Fox News reporting that Matthew Crooks was a dev gru operator
Buddy couldn't pass the regular Navy basic.
Wtf tank you got to stay under water for 10 hours straight!? That's insane !!

Isn’t this the vehicle that Chris built and designed ?
How many people have frozen to “un alive” in that contraption? What a miserable way to go.
probably what they used for nordstream
How about a show about your drug dealings in Columbia Shawn.
What?
@@FadedEbony yes ole Shawn went to Columbia after his seal days was a drug dealer sent drugs to the USA. Never trust the CIA
There is already one out however, he’s a guest on the show.
@@Chance_M yes Megan Kelly
@@MarineOne- source?
👍👍
