This interview is exactly how Marine Corps life is. Things you can never imagine. Funny , sad, scary, awesome. Something I will never forget. Anyone who’s been there can relate.
Brotherrrrrr. Your interviews are right there with the Sean Ryan Show. I needed this one today. My time on active duty is about to come to an end after 12 years before I swap over to the Ohio Army National Guard to be with my family. I'm drinking watching this and while I smile, and laugh, and tear up at this guys story. One of my first squad leaders was with 1/2 for the invasion (can't remember what company as I have deleted social media) and nothing but respect for the warriors who went through that fire during the invasion. Keep up the great work with this channel. We love it. THIS IS ALL WE NEED TO HEAL. Is other veterans literally just sharing their story and perspective. Just to hear their experience and what we have all gone through after the long war is all we need. Thank you for sharing your story boss. Semper Fi.
Best description I have ever heard of a Marine. A guard dog without a purpose turns into a pitbull waiting to instill violence. I did 20 years in the USMC (10TH MAR.). Retired in 2015. It is hard to find people out here with the mindset of Marines. Matter a fact I have found it impossible. Keep your head down brother Semper Fi
I’m sorry for Scott, but I’m glad you’re alive. What a horrible thing for people to say to you. I pray to God you’ve been able to process through that.
Back in 98 we'd never thought about what would follow. I was un Kosovo on TDY orders with the 101st airborne 502nd when 9/11 occured. I was immediately sent back to my parent unit the 10th mountain 1-87th Infantry as were the rest of he guys in TDY only like a handful, i would eventually get sent to Afghanistan with the 10th and be home by june 2002. Got out after my 4 years and 3 deployments 2 were combat deployments and would re-enlist in 2003 because of Iraq. I would serve there from 04 to 05 and a time i wish i could forget but cant, what a ride jesus.
Any step dad watching this should make you want to do better ,These kids are kids and need love not your anger ,he was resiliant,lots are not. Thank you for your service and your story.
@@woodchuck2 I was a stepchild ,and I raised a stepson,not exactly how you detailed it but that child needs all the unconditional love no matter what the Ef ends up happening with the mother ,Even is she never closed her Cockholster it don't concern the innocence of a child who is in need . Not sure what you went through but as a man it's our job.
Super solid interview with opening up the soul and laying it out there to help others realize telling your truth with the “flaws” we all have is the most efficient path to slaying evil and being a truly righteous dude or dudette. 🇺🇸
Yo!!! Great interview, good dude! I was also in Nasiriyah (OIF 1). And I was apart of 2/23 in the same era I am on the cusp of transitioning and about to retire from the Corps. This sparked a lot of memories, thank you for sharing your story. SFMF🤙🏻!
I can concor with some of the stuff, I was with Charlie when he was there. Even though he was with Bravo. That engagement was crazy as it could be. Semper fi brother "for whoever bleeds with me, shall forever be my brother". 1/2 Charlie out.
I was a DOC for 10 years… green side, the whole time. I like how your face lit up when you said Doc! 👍🏻🙏🏻😎 Oh good times and bad times, but it was the best 10 years of my life.
I’ve said for the longest time there should be channels dedicated to combat vets being able to tell some of their stories, even if only to get it off their chest. Thank you all for your service.
That was awful hearing people say you should have died instead of your friend. That was seriously fucked up. I hope you have settled that in your mind. When it’s your time, it’s your time and unfortunately it was his and not yours. God had other plans for you. I wish you and your family well.
Love to see stories about coming to camp lejeune. I’m from Jacksonville originally and have always loved the many different cultures and states that end up choosing to stay in the area. Appreciate all your service and have many friends that have been all around the world.
Excellent interview, tyfys, great descriptions of events, the rosary bead and crosses like Mr T hit me, the A-10 hit when he started describing what the Lt Colonel was doing loading bodies and body parts on the tank so no one was left behind about had me leaking from my eyes, damn onion cutting Ninjas, I’ve seen a lot of scenes like the Semi vs Car, I was a Paramedic in the NYC system and was there on 9/11, on the way in I called my wife and told her to get the kids out of school because I don’t know if I’m coming home alive, hardest fu*king phone call I ever made, one of my partners was killed when tower 1 came down, Carlos Lillo 😔🙏🏻, along with 7 other Paramedics and EMT’s, that still haunts my dreams and I can’t watch when they start airing it all as 9/11 nears, I have yet to go to the museum and I now live in FL and I don’t know if I’ll ever go back, I’m a veteran as well, Army 13F, and in April of 2001 my wife and I lost our only daughter and I had her buried in Calverton National Cemetery, that was devastating to us and then 5 months later to the day is when 9/11 happened, it was a crappy year for sure, I want to see if they will exhume her and bring her done here to one of the National Cemetery’s, sorry I got off track, anyway Semper Fi to you Marine, may god bless you 🙏🏻
Its called a scuzz rag. And I'm a little older marine I graduated boot camp in 1989. And our drill instructors loved playing games they would make us drink 2 full canteens of water after eating Chow.. And you know what happens when you drink 2 canteens full of water after chow somebody's gonna throw 🤯🤯🤯 up. And when one recruit throws up half the platoons gonna throw up. And of course you're gonna get the drill instructor pissed off because you just threw up on his deck. Let the games begin he pulls out his hose and the Squad Bay is full of water and throw up and recruits pushing the scugs rags from one end of the barracks to the next end. What good fun. Semper Fidelis 🙏🏾💪🏾🙏🏾💪🏾
I was an 1833, trac driver. That story of the warthog taking out the AAV was still a big story that we were told in MOS school and when I got to the fleet. YATYAS. Love hearing experiences from my older brothers. Semper fi.
Another testimony of the reality of war and the truth of what it takes to live on and off of the battlefield. Thank you for your service and selflessness! 🫡
Brother I appreciate these interviews immensely! Where else can you get reminded that things like assrags existed! No better friend, no worse enemy!!! SEMPER FI My rack mate during rifle range had jolly ranchers sent to him. He never shared lol. Got caught with one in his mouth. He was made to put the whole bag in his mouth without unwrapping any! Lololol
Lost my cousin lcpl Donald Cline 1/2 Charlie in march od 03 in Nasiriyah. Been trying to find any foitage, pictures, or stories i can about him. RIP to all the fallen. Im pretty sure he's talking about my cousin at 32:19. Ge was awarded the sliver star.
My God, I love this interview! The rosery part of your story gave me chills. Probably why youre here telling the story today. God bless. Thank you so much for your service. I was in boot camp in 1991 & we had Indy car races too, only we had scuzz brushes!😂
Usually I don't comment this much. I think its because this Marine reminds me of a really good friend of mine when I was in. His name was Miguel Hernandez. GOOCH!! Anyway I love his description of what he experienced his first time aboard an army base. I remember a squad of Rangers came through one day to use the small FOB as a step off point. The team leader was amazed as to how primitive the living conditions were!! Even Motherfn US Army Rangers were amazed by how shitty we lived!! Pussies
If social media had been as big, and the stigma of being seen as weak wasn't so rampant in the military I'd imagine hundreds to thousands of veterans would have told their stories, for the support or the understanding from fellow warriors of what it feels like and how they feel. Remember, a man with PTSD back in the day was nothing more than "weak minded, and not cut out for this life" and we gave ZERO fks about their mental health. So what fkin reason would they have had to talk about it? At least now, we are properly educated on mental health and veterans now have lifelines and support. Imagine how many would have not gone through with taking their own life had they had support like this or an opportunity to spill it out.
He's not 5'6160lbs ,anymore. This dude can probably bench a little weight. He's got that bulldog build. Short ,huge arms. Great for pull ups too.! The interviewer has a distinct Voice , I recognize. Marine Sniper I forget his name!?
Full Metal Jacket will give you enough information to be highly concerned, nothing will prepare you for being forced to push yourself miles past your perceived limits. A person would never push themselves to the point of tears running down your face from failed pushups or run until you start to black out. You will experience it all in boot camp. You'd better want it. BAD. I went to the sheriff's academy and my instructors were SWAT team guys. 2 of the 3 were former military driller instructor instructors. They were serious business. I was a gun and tactic nut and wanted to be a deputy since I was a young kid. I was in awe of these guys. I would have died before I would have thrown in the towel. We started 66 and graduated 23. It was fn brutal. You'd better want it because it goes on FOREVER AND EVER. When it's over and put that uniform on that you admired for so long, all the pain was so worth it.
I lived in NY when 9/11 happened I was like 8 my class was watching it in our classroom also and my dad came to the school and pulled me out of school because he thought an invasion was happening or something equivalent to that… crazy part was I saw other parents doing the same… my dad was frantic running out the school grabbing by my hand not explaining anything… and we bust out the front school entrance doors and all I see is parents pulling up to the school curbside tires squirting and all and parents busting out their cars running into the school all frantic to do the same… it was pretty wild that I was processing all of it at that age but yeah.. 😧
I seriously doubt it as I can't recall Talill and we moved around so much always on the go and the 2nd tour we were stationed @ Camp Liberty(probably the best base in Iraq @ the time(when we were there as we were always on the move as well but we had a route clearance unit right next door from VA...we were the 821st Eng Battalion on 2nd tour(21N)...@@joman6566
Has an energy like salt of the earth type dude… I can’t imagine a human telling another human - someone who just came back from deployment- that he should’ve died… truly a disgusting human being.
Everyone of these veterans needs to be vetted again. Urban valor did a horrible job, verifying all of these veterans that are telling their stories. I’ve noticed they have taken at least one down of a retired Navy, veteran that completely fabricated his career.
Wait so he sounded like he was saying they had no idea that he was going into Iraq until they were almost there? Wait when did they finally get told they were going wouldn’t he have already known? He was talking about him thinking they were leaving kuwait to come home?
The prospect of actually entering Iraq was up in the air until we entered Iraq. The whole time going over on ship (about 1 1/2 months), sitting in camp in Kuwait (about a month)- we were told very little and the rumor mill was full of different expectations but the general belief was that it would only end up being a big show of force that would result in Saddam allowing weapons inspectors in and then we’d go home. (Funny thing is that if Saddam had just let the weapons inspectors do their thing a whole lot of blood might have been spared because in the end it turned out of course that there were no WMDs anyways. The powers that be may have found another reason to invade though so who knows. It is what it is and what a fuckin wild ride it was. USMC B Co. 1/2)
Dude I totally forgot about that when we got the care package from our family that we had to eat all of the sweats or food we received and had to eat if all right than which would Make you regurgitate.
Hearing about the army starving recruits is just awful; like I get it; building a strong soldier blah blah blah but wtf, at what point do you draw the line between toughening up a soldier and mentally and physically injuring these people.
Excellent interview loved every bit of it, I hate to say it but why!!!! Why!!! Push the pitbull stereotype!!!! Pitbulls aren’t dogs just waiting around to hurt somebody son!
48 people killed by Pitbulls alone in the USA (1 NATION!!) And 33 more by Pitbull mixes. You won't find stats like that For ANY other dog breed. Golden or Pitbull? I'm going to with the one that hasn't killed 48 people in one year, let alone the past 40 years. You're crazy. Statistics DO NOT LIE.
This interview is exactly how Marine Corps life is. Things you can never imagine. Funny , sad, scary, awesome. Something I will never forget. Anyone who’s been there can relate.

Awesome interview! Stand up Marine and man - Thank you for your service.
The Operations Room recently started a series on Operation Iraqi Freedom and this event is covered in a great amount of detail.
I can concor with some of the stuff, I was with Charlie when he was there. Even though he was with Bravo. That engagement was crazy as it could be. Semper fi brother "for whoever bleeds with me, shall forever be my brother". 1/2 Charlie out.
I wonder if you knew my cousin lcpl Donald J. Cline. He was with 1/2 charlie and was kia in March 03 in Nasariah
Went through Nasiriyah with the 101st in 03
Great episode literally couldn’t stop hearing his story

Full Metal Jacket will give you enough information to be highly concerned, nothing will prepare you for being forced to push yourself miles past your perceived limits.

"it shouldve been you.." damn...how can someone say that to someone..... even after what he saw...
Another solid interview! #housemouse

We(WV National Guard 21N combat engineers)arrived in An Nasiriyah 5/13/2003.Miserable!Memorable!
By chance you work with the 724th Eng from WI, Talill airbase?
I seriously doubt it as I can't recall Talill and we moved around so much always on the go and the 2nd tour we were stationed @ Camp Liberty(probably the best base in Iraq @ the time(when we were there as we were always on the move as well but we had a route clearance unit right next door from VA...we were the 821st Eng Battalion on 2nd tour(21N)...@@joman6566
Where u from @urbanvalor ? Im a combat vet from michigan was with the 10th mountain div.
That’s is so fking insane that someone said it was supposed to be you. I had to rewind the video to make sure I heard that correctly. WTF
I always heard in the marine core "it's not considered stealing if your getting your shit back" lol😂😂
“you were one of the funnest boots we had” “yay me” LMAO
Can I please reach out this person? I am a veteran of the NAS, 1st bn 11Marines. I deal crippling anxiety please be Nice
I did a lot of deployments with 1/2. I was at that CAX. I was also there with 1/2 in '04-'05
5:05 "i didn't see the first crash." Yeah, nobody did at the time... Lol
I live in Westminster!!!
Has an energy like salt of the earth type dude… I can’t imagine a human telling another human - someone who just came back from deployment- that he should’ve died… truly a disgusting human being.

"I guess that's life"

48 people killed by Pitbulls alone in the USA (1 NATION!!) And 33 more by Pitbull mixes.
You won't find stats like that For ANY other dog breed. Golden or Pitbull? I'm going to with the one that hasn't killed 48 people in one year, let alone the past 40 years.
You're crazy. Statistics DO NOT LIE.
