    First found Cody on the Shawn Ryan interview, this dude is a G. For all of the shit he’s been through and has overcome to be the person he is today. All respect. This is a guy to look up to!

      Gets shot in the head his first deployment and his family is told that he's dead. He's a G just for wearing that helmet as a badge of honor. BadAss!!

      ​@gdubya83 The sad truth is it didn't need to be done. You are simply cleaning up the mess that OPEC made in the middle east. If the US stopped destabilising other countries, you'd only need a tenth of your armed forces. You are not defending your country, you are a Raytheon sub contractor

    I never agreed with the fact soldiers sign up for war and are welcome back. Meanwhile the civilians caught in the middle of war survive with less and are greeted with hate and resentment… Ain’t that a B….

    All these veterans are being passed around like joints from podcast to podcast telling the same stories its getting out of hand. That being said, the only podcast veterans should be on is shawn ryans.

    After all that, he made the choice to look like a criminal? I served 10 years, including as an Infantryman in Korea near the DMZ, coalition trainer in Kuwait and a Gunner in Afghanistan, and it still disappoints me to see military people deface their bodies as such...

    • @deeyouwhy3531
      @deeyouwhy3531 7 місяців тому +1

      A criminal has no specific look.
      This man was also the youngest mstsgt spent most of his time in service in Iraq and Afghanistan as a raider.
      He used to not have the face tattoos but chose to do what he wanted with his life and stopped caring about the judgment of what others think.
