      Really appreciate this. It means a lot to hear and I think combat has a way of forcing someone to leave their ego behind. Thanks for taking the time to share.

      No, Murphy has sold himself out, he is ego. He and his buddy, also a sell out of his own peer group, Brandon Webb. They personify all that's wrong with trying to socially engineer the military. Scumbag. And yes, I'm an Army guy. See for yourself. Not an honorable guy. Just like his buddy Webb

      @@austinluna4091 LOL, no they don't Austin. They harm it more than anything because they've both been busted lying not only about their own military records, which were impressive enough; but they both embellished. Strike 1.
      Strike 2, they make up more shit and shit on their own peers than they do before they even fart in the wind in the direction of doing something positive. They ONLY write stories that increases their popularity.
      Finally, I've spoken with them both, and along with a group of military peers, we've got in their faces about the bullshit that they spew. The fact that you do not know any of this says everything needed to know about what you know of these guys.
      They're garbage, and yes, I've said it to their faces. Just like a LOT of other Navy and Army guys have TO THEIR FACES.
      I appreciate that you want to defend them, but dude, you OBVIOUSLY do not know them, or their work. Ex. Jack Murphy, in his urge to align with the "woke" told NBC that the Ranger Regiment is racist, and that "systemic racism" is built into the Regiment. Do you think the Regiment is racist? Why don't you ask people in the Regiment. It's NOT racist, not even close. But Jack, lied to the main stream media and said that it is, and for what? Fame and media favor. It's a fact brother. If you're not in the community, then go read what the SOF communist thinks of these two.

    Great, brutally honest interview. I also like how the interviewer asks questions regarding the psychological aspect of what's going through people's mind before, during and after combat.
    I am amazed with how Jack was able to continue and redeem himself after the FF incident. Incredible character.

    Excellent interview with Jack Murphy, for me a change of perspective from being interviewed by him myself recently on his own podcast, "The Team House". Good to get his own story, and an interesting one it certainly is. The real deal for sure, the new generation of veterans, and he has (as the saying goes) "walked the walk". Great series, truly interesting group of diverse interviewees.

Guide the conversation and let the person being interviewed tell their story.
