December, 1944. In the city of Bastogne, Belgium, during the Battle of the Bulge, American soldiers primarily from the 101st Airborne Division, but also from the 969th Artillery Battalion, and Combat Command B of the 10th Armored Division, were surrounded by Germans.
Jocko should do a ww2 documentary with his voice over. Like if you agree.
HE DEFINITELY NEEDS TO DO THIS
I was feeling depressed this Christmas...until Jocko reminded me of how trivial my problems are.
Hang in there Buddhi. Troubles are fleeting, they will pass...
Merry Christmas Buddhi!
Buddhi Ciancio Merry Christmas Buddhi Handsome. Dont let that into your mind. Be mentally strong for you. Be as alive as you possibly can. From Ireland, take life one day at a time and do not compare what you are doing at this time or what you have or have not , because people are wasteful and glutinous at this time. Selfishness comes out at this time also. We have a major homelessness problem over here in Dublin. Im just grateful I have hot water, warm bed and food in my fridge to give my son and myself a nice Christmas. Its not shopping like crazy that makes it meaningful to me. Its a normal sort of day but loneliness can overcome some people at this time. I will be thinking of you for the next couple of days and I hope you stay strong. There is love in your heart. That is your strength in you. Be good to yourself and take good care of those thoughts and don't let them in. Love and best wishes for 2018 my friend. X
Buddhi Ciancio Hang in there brother, *it will pass* I promise.
Buddhi Ciancio remember this but a moment. My mother taught me A hero dies once, but a coward dies every moment of his life. Face what ever is happening. You will Make it be the your Hero.
Have a GOOD Christmas everybody! Let us never forget the heroes who keep us FREE to celebrate the birth of Christ. Thank you Jocko & Echo.
I come back to this every Christmas for a reminder.
THIS MARINE CORPS VETERAN IS THANKFUL FOR TEAM JOCKO!!!
THANK YOU FOR THE REMINDERS OF STRENGTH AND POTENTIAL WITHIN US
LOOKING FORWARD TO LEARNING AND GROWING FURTHER IN 2018 BY ECHO AND JOCKOS EXAMPLE
OUT...
Thank God for these brave men.
Brian Beck I curse them daily.
Iain H i think deep down you wish you were an american, thats why u subscribe to this podcast and comment on patriotic comments... i dont think you hate us at all, buddy
Nuts!
As an Army Veteran, I absolutely love these podcasts.
drknight48 Merry Christmas DrKnight. From Ireland. 🍀🎅🎄
P And to you also; I hope your Christmas is a good one.
Interesting....especially given Jocko's history with the 101st airborne...
My wife and ten children and I listened to this in a cabin in the snow. Captivating and inspiring to say the least. Merry Christmas to all. Keep up the good fight!
I will enjoy tomorrow morning opening presents in my warm home with warm coffee and slippers with presents and gifts I don’t deserve only because there are Americans out there fighting for us to even have that privilege..thank you for your service and sacrifice
Many have given up their tomorrows so we can live our todays in freedom.
I never tire of this work. Thanks Jocko.
Goose bumps. Gratitude to everyone who has laid down the most precious of gifts for our country.
I would absolutely love for you to do a ww2 podcast with Dan Carlin
Where there is darkness, light will meet it. Many people do not understand sacrifice, or struggle. Those men fought for the good of America and the European countries. The hardships they endured, the pain, the loss, the hunger, the hate, the emptiness they felt in moments when they wanted to give up never came out, they put their heads down and and asked for more. "When the guns ran out of ammo, they used their knives, when the knives went dull, they used their fists, a force of 3000 men couldn't handle the tenacity of 200"
Those men's gift that Christmas was life, and they used it the best they could.
Proud to be an American, our spirit never dies. Keep slogging soldiers.
Dirk Diggler A third of Americans identify as Mexican.
You're a dying people in a dying country whose best threw away their lives for nothing. The same people who Americans saved spent the next 50 years killing American boys.
A third of Americans identify as Mexican.
Let that sink in.
Iain H i could care less what a third of american citizens consider themselves, as long as at least 3% of us understand what being an American is about, Ill have a Merry Christmas this year. Dont be fooled by what you see on your tv, theres more than enough healthy, strong, and smart Americans over here that im pretty sure we can sort out whatever we got goin on.
Iain H Shut up dumbass.
And in comes Willink with a “Back to the Book”. Thank you Jocko.
Reality check for all those that paved the way for the United States of America.
These stories are very important to know for myself and all the future generations to know the cost of our freedom. Thanks Jocko
Amen 🙏 brother. Merry Christmas 🎄🎁
I heard if you dislike a jocko video he will punch you through your screen
Nick - Didn't happen.
Iain H lol but you subscribe? and u comment on alot of his videos
Nick - nah man he chokes you out and remember he doesn’t accept taps your going to sleep
He couldn't care less.
I think one of the missions on cod ww2 was dedicated to that perticular battle.
Merry Christmas brothers
My dad told me about his grandfather’s experience fighting in Italy in ‘43. He said that it was very quiet the night of Christmas Eve, so quiet that he could hear the Germans singing.
Position surrounded by enemy forces? GOOD
Thank you, Jocko. Merry Christmas, Sir.
2 regressive liberal communists have disliked this video.
I always wonder how much of the time war is on Jockos mind.
So we are just gonna leave out the 506th/E Company???...... 🤷🏻♀️🤦🏻♀️
Thank you, Jocko for forcing me to have enough perspective to "think about" (I put that in quotes because it seems like such an inadequate thank you) our troops currently overseas and in harms way.
Dad fought at St. Vith with the 7th Armored Division and 106th Infrantry Division among others. The only thing dad talked about the battle was the horric fighting they endured on Christmas Eve, 1944 and the cold. He talked a lot about the cold.
Anyone who wants to see an incredible recreation of this, it's in the miniseries Band of Brothers
Thought for sure it would have been Valley Forge....
Not to be... that guy... but the American commander said nuts because he has just been woken up, and wasn't firing on all cylinders yet
I was not expecting this. Thank you, Jocko and Echo. Merry Christmas, everyone.
Jocko, you should team up with the "WW2 in real time" guys, they are fantastic
Wow! I am speechless and eternally grateful for your warpath.
The,loop to the embodied criste.tho,i walk through the valley of the shadow of death,and as we never shall depart i will fear no evil.the corpus as Christ had been pierced and Christy,and was body to Christ too.and mother's prevail,father's corpus,and to death do we part.
For madom,for we art tho to fear evil,and tho art here to art fear for fear itself is the only artform ever.and Christmas came. God is here for you today but for twilight is near and ye should not fear today at all.
I see war and hate all day long,and the streets aren't any better even after it's fiftieth year.and as afro dietitian,is the diet region of belief that corpus Christi,as pro quo.and whom told the bell to ring for just you.go ye to the watchtower,and see if ye found fear did it blow,or did the break come from the winds past.
Hamlet could decide this either,and proquo is the walk of grandeur,and also the life Salah.
Two,tho hast become a great intervention of a time pass,future is told in harmony,and in the it's description is Hamlet itself.and crime to otday be for told as things may depart from or to itself.
How is it that Christmas is any better than just the tree,or for told truth,and what is proquo for you i say.now did it snow,for bow the wind and rain and land and air.air is the wind and the wind is only still.what day this is,to know Christmas,and for me the bell tolls everywhere.so,as i walk through the valley of the shadow of death i fear no evil,the master said ye girls yourself on course to entry and all shall be just okay,your sure master,the reply was is that everyday is Christmas and ever entry may enter and no door is actually there i found that to be very real.art is what is and for some Christmas isn't Jewish and for some it is.gid bless and have happy Christmas too
My grandad was a medic with the Army in the Battle of the Bulge. Thank you for this.
I would love to see him tackle combat stories from the American Civil War.
Merry Christmas Jocko, and a Happy New Year.
It can always be worse, but then you make best of it! Its nice to hear these kinds of stories ones that tell the tale of the human spirit and its triumphs!
Merry Christmas you bad ass!!! Thank you for all you do!
Salute
The 10 dislikes came from nazis 😂
listening to this on Christmas eve of 2021
Good stuff jocko keep it man.
Happy Christmas Jocko.
we owe those guys everything
jocko what do u think about desmond doss?
Merry Christmas Jocko
I thoroughly enjoy Jocko's book readings, I'm guessing this was from a podcast, that I haven't heard yet. Does anyone know the episode number? Merry Christmas, MbD
Amen.
Excellent stuff, more!
Another great Christmas video Jocko, these are very poignant and I really appreciate you putting them out. If people are interested for more on the Battle of the Bulge/The Battered Bastards of Bastogne/The Ardennes conflict then I highly recommend 'The Field Marshall's Revenge' by Charles Whiting and 'Ardennes: Hitler's last gamble' by Antony Beevor.
On December 23rd 1944 my grandfather and his buddies in the 325nd GIR (glider infantry regiment) 82nd Airborne held the Baraque-Frait crossroad on the south flank vs the waffen SS counter attack. despite being out numbered 43, 500 plus 1250 pieces of armor to 8250. despite having to retreat on Dec 24th they regrouped in the coming days where they inflected much damage on the Germans.
Absolutely wonderful. Inspiringly sensitive and profound. Really made me cry with the insight of true sacrifice. Thank you Jocko.
Merry Christmas Jocko and a happy new year..God bless America.. Thank you..
We truly have heroes who walk/ed among us. The steadfastness in the boys who were out there in the freezing cold, away from anything familiar, with full understanding of the danger that surrounded them at Bastogne is beyond humbling. My daughter will listen to this today and, hopefully, so will many others. Thank you for sharing this us.
Jocko- merry Christmas. Great message of a legacy worthy of remembrance by all. One piece of feedback: the advertising during the recording detracts from your intention of reading the feats of men who lived and died valiantly.
This gave me the chills. Jocko, I just found out a out you a couple weeks ago, but you are the only audio that's been coming through my speakers ever since. Thank you for all of your incredible lessons and please keep them coming! Merry Christmas to you and your family my friend.
Thank you Jocko for the remembrance of those who have given the ultimate sacrifice for all of us and this GREAT COUNTRY! This is why I serve! Thank you for reminding me of how good we all have it here at home, those of us who are not on the front-lines but wish all of those who are were home to spend this time with their family.
I was anticipating another Christmas reading to follow last years...with Jocko we're never disappointed...Wishing everyone a wonderful Christmas and peace on earth
Thank you for sharing this, it makes 2020 look like a cakewalk, merry Christmas Jocko!
Video editing/quality from Echo is some Tier 1 quality. I think he seriously might be giving everyone on the internets a run for there money.
The video is absolutely amazing. The black and white and close up is simple but adds a lot to the video. Beautiful story.
Merry Christmas Jocko and Echo. Thank you for the positive thoughts and inspiration this year.
Thank God for those including ones in my family that fought for us💂
When I was playing call of duty ww2 I kept imagining jocko as the characters, though listening to the podcast you get to know how legit he is
i remember reading about this a few years back and really hit me hard, Nothing but respect for those men.
Nuts!
Amen. Merry Christmas, Jocko.
Heavy
Chills
Nuts.
The courage of those that have come before us and who have saved us is other worldly. Thankful for those that serve every day and those that have served.
The guy is something else.
What a man for reading this
Is this from a book?
*These mist covered mountains are home now for me, but my home is the lowlands and always will be*
Merry Christmas gentleman
Merry Christmas Jocko & Echo! May there be peace on earth.
Merry Christmas this is by far the best Chanel on youtube
You should try to get Robert o Neil on the podcast
Brilliant, Jocko. Brilliant.
1:21 - I already know what the reply will be.
What podcast is this from ??
It’s a stand alone piece that he put out around Christmas times few years ago
GOD BLESS AMERICA 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Amazing, thanks for sharing JW

Why was this video reuploaded?
The other video is Christmas 1914 about the Christmas truce in ww1
David Pennington No, this video is a reupload. Look at the uploads. I watched it the first time it was uploaded. Exact same title, exact same story. For some reason they had to reupload.
