Not sure if you’ll see this, and you probably don’t remember me, but I met your team and you briefly in Kuwait. Your team relieved mine (3/1 STA) out there. After numerous “we got the call, we’re going in” situations getting pulled last minute I remember the feeling you talk about of not getting to play your sport. After getting relieved by you a couple months prior, I remember hearing that you guys got the call to go into Afghan, and naively being envious of your team. Then I remember getting a short glimpse through the media of the chaos and absurdity of the situation there. Seeing that y’all were thrown into a no-win situation and still crushing it. And then I remember hearing that you guys got hit. And I remember seeing your picture and recognizing you and my heart sank. Over the last year I’ve been thinking about y’all and imagine my team and I in your shoes. The dedication of your team to the mission, the lives y’all saved, and your personal perseverance have been a motivation for me and many others man. Since then, I wrapped up my time in the Corps and jumped ship over to the Army, but I share your story with my guys any chance I get. It’s guys like y’all that make the Corps what it is and make me proud to be a Marine. I hope and pray your teammates, your families, and you all live happy fulfilling lives. Thank you for all your boys and you did out there. Take care, Breathe Reticle Squeeze, Suffer Patiently, Semper Fi brother.
I gotta say, I watched this again as a reminder to myself that as a husband, a father with a wonderful healthy family here in America. I am, and we are blessed to have men and women like this, who bleed and put their lives on the line to protect this great country. Because of people like this, I am able to raise my daughters and take care of my wife. So, I am extremely grateful for our men and women who serve. So thank you for everything thing you sacrificed. You are not forgotten or alone. Their are a lot of Americans across this country who truly care.
💯‼️ Same!! I will never look at things the same ever again after listening to Tyler's experience. Ever so grateful for our military who step up to the plate without thinking twice. As a woman it's important to know that I am safe to feel safe. And it is a guy like Tyler That solidify that for me. Thank you Tyler and all of you who fight for us!
This man has so much strength, he's able to tell his story and still be able to hold his composure and to find a way to chuckle at his own story. It's insane. There are no words, I'm sorry this happened to him and I am so grateful there are soldiers like him out there. It's shit like this that makes me proud to be American and be thankful for the good things the military can do
As a Marine Vet, it struck a deep nerve with me with what happened. I've been reminding everyone I know about the HKIA situation and to never forget what happened. Been following his recovery and this is a great listen on the drive home. Sgt Vargas is an inspiration.
Agreed brother!! I got out the corps 2 months before this event and i ended up losing 3 dudes i was super close to! Never forget that day and Semper fi
He deserves to walk right up to Biden and punch him right in the face! At the very least! As an American, never served in the military sadly. My Dad was a Marine. My heart hurts for this man and any other soldier or Marine who died during the disastrous withdrawal that the crypt keeper caused. The military advisors tried to warn the crypt keeper, but the dumbass didn’t listen. He deserved impeached, arrested for war crimes, tried and sent to prison. Period.
@@garrettbull7357 please watch the Brendon o Connell interview with Mike Gill video about politicians who are in bed with the cartels n money laundering banks! Goes to the top leadership ❤that’s why they’re after any ppls that love n uphold our military n constitution ❤thank you for your service and sacrifices!! You ppls are our national treasures ❤❤love you all
When I watch the people that represent us in our federal government, I find it difficult to find one person that is impressive. This young man impresses me. To be damaged physically in the way he was, and to not be stuck at home wallowing in self-pity would be enough, but this kid is still serving. I hope and pray that God blesses this man and uses him to make meaningful change in this world.
An honor to meet you Tyler❤! Thanks for being all you are , such a great example for future generations, for our youth. May God make you a thousand times more a blessing to many!
My life is enriched by this mans story, it was an honor to meet you Tyler, we all know that you will do many more great things with your life, much respect sir!
Absolutely wonderful man!! Deep love n respect for you and your friends in military ❤will never forget all you n other military friends fallen n active have sacrificed for our freedoms ❤️👍👍👍👍
@@lindabergman3127 This kid got blown up because traitors have seized power. When will we stop sending our sons and daughters to fight illegal wars. The CIA facilitated the attacks on the twin towers so they would have the support of the American people to invade the middle east for profit. We are less free then we were pre 9/11.
You never "met him" its ridiculous and sad, that nowadays we have all formed parasocial relationships, in one way or another with complete strangers... you literally could never actually know, if thats really who they are off camera. when they arent in control of "the viewers" perception of their reality

Tyler this quote was written for you over 1000 years ago... you are a true warrior! "No carelessness in your actions. No confusion in your words. No imprecision in your thoughts. No retreating into your own soul or trying to escape it." Marcus Aurelius
Travis, another homerun with the Bridge. Thank you for letting Tyler tell his story so people could get the real view through the lens on what happened that day, and the spirit and resolve people like Tyler have that allows them to keep on serving no matter what life throws at them.
I was in 2/1 WPNS company 2013-2017. I didn’t realize at the time my purpose was to keep passing the torch to these guys. I struggled with not getting to do my job at the time. They gave my time meaning.
Hearing Tyler speak about his mother's interaction with the Afghan woman as well as the little girl and her family he saved got me a little choked up not gonna lie. Incredible story from someone who sounds like an incredible human being
I just took an hour and thirty six minute break from work, to listen to this young man tell his story. It was horrifying, honest, inspirational and left me feeling Proud AF to be an American. I wish you all the best Sir, 🤘🇺🇲 .
What an exceptional individual. He will go far in life an accomplish things that most are incapable of. Thank you for all you have sacrificed and all you will do. Semper Fi
Nothing is considered a Conspiracy theory after time has its way, they always come out to be facts. Glad Tyler survived. A good friend of mine and at one point a junior Corpsman of mine was there during the withdrawal and was on the last plane that left the airport. Took me a couple of days to get a hold of him to make sure he was okay. Pretty insane how things played out and how poorly the withdrawal went. Makes me think about all my Marines and my Corpsmen that I worked with and the sacrifices that we made and some who gave all. It hurt, but I try to live my life for them now. Thanks for sharing all this. Like Tyler said, most Americans don't understand how good we have it in the USA, too many people are too weak and too cared for and so easily take this life for granted.
Tyler's a hero, awesome head space. Amazing interview man. It means a lot to hear from these guys and listen to how the see/deal with their lives post service. Keep up the good work!
These men have done more than just tell their stories. They speak for all of us, who have kept their pain secret, and hearing them tell their stories have done more than years of counseling's and drugs. Semper Fidelis.
Only the body of the indestructable, immeasurable, and eternal living entity is subject to destruction. The material body is perishable by nature. It may perish immediately, or it may do so after a hundred years. It is a question of time only. There is no chance of maintaining it indefinitely. But the spirit soul is so minute that it cannot even be seen by an enemy, to say nothing of being killed. Soul is so small that no one can have any idea how to measure its' dimension. So from both viewpoints there is no cause of lamentation because the living entity can neither be killed as he is, nor can the material body, which cannot be saved for any length of time, be permanently protected. To mother and son. The Vedas are now beautifully translated in to English. They will be the lawbooks for the next 10,000 years. As bhagavad-gita is spoken on a battlefield I highly request reading this book. Here : vedabase.io
Tyler’s Moms strength and heart, raising him to be the man he is today, then connecting with the other mama on the plane. Thank you Tyler for sharing, praying for peace and healing for you and the others that were over there.
Gosh. I'm a Afghanistan OEF vet. And I just want you to know you sure know how to make me cry. But you help give courage buddy. Your amazing. So strong. Salute brother... God bless you and your mother.
I just watched his testimony from the hearing on Capitol Hill. He has such an incredible story. I'm sorry the US govt left your requests to neutralize the threat go unheard.

I’m glad u gave him this platform. I’ve wanted to hear from someone who was in the Afghanistan situation. Extremely motivating material. God bless these men and women
This really puts things in perspective. There are no proper words to thank you for your dedication, your service, and your mindset, Tyler. This interview touched and moved my soul. Wishing you all the best 🙏❤️
This man is still probably feeling mental struggle after this loss, thank you for your service. Remember you have friends and family whether you know it or not. A meal, a beer on me anytime Tyler, cheers brother.
One of the most incredible, most squared away men that we have in this country, and an exemplary role model for young(hell, and old) men in this country. We need more men like Tyler if we want to turn this country around.
Thank you Tyler. For your service and of being one of the real ones. Too many people don't know of the real world and what it takes to face it. And Travis, you're an amazing host. Thank you as well. This whole podcast had my heartrate and heartstrings on lifeline the entire time.
Massive amounts of respect and gratitude to Tyler, and the men and women like him. -edit- As a civilian, I can tell you the story about his mom and the ride home absolutely did paint a picture and personally that hit me hard. I count myself fortunate for each veteran I've ever been given the chance to take fishing (volunteer for an NPO) and listen to. Tyler's outlook is pretty damn admirable and I'm glad to have heard his story/message.
Thank you all for your service. I have seen Tyler tell his story a couple times now. Forgive me for wondering and asking, I assume the interpreter did not survive the blast. Any idea what happened to his wife and four children? I hope they survived and got out. God Bless America and those who fight to keep her free.
Yep the hardest thing for my husband was not being able to see combat. Never having a chance to prove yourself. Thats what he joined for and why he did Infantry. Thank God you survived and are here to share this incredible story❤️ God bless you
Our education system in the US is the biggest problem we have right now. We should be teaching our kids how good we have it, and how the rest of the world really is
I saw the scans this brave warrior's mom took. He has the most beautiful skin & body i ever saw. Respect, sir. Saw you on Shawn Ryan. Watched twice & am impressed at seeing a REAL MAN at such a young age. You make our country proud and that is rare in earth school today.
This is what true heroism looks and sounds like. Whatever about Tyler's awful and traumatic injuries, his ability to recover and conquer is beyond resiliant... More people should view this post. Powerful, inspiring, emotional. xx SF
Awesome guy!! Great interview. Thank you for the sacrifice you've made & live with. You're an amazing person & have a great outlook on what's right & what needs to done for others.
God bless Travis and the men and women willing to lay down their lives for us. How could we repay? By living a life worth these men and women getting wounded and dying for! Honor our men and women by living your life in a manner worth their sacrifice!! Amazing podcast it was an honor to hear your story. Thank you for sharing!!! ❤
In 20 years we westernized Kabul, liberated Muslim women, allowed children to be educated, and ended tyranny as a whole. An entire generation grew up free from the Taliban's grip, then gave it back in less than 30 days under the worst leadership this country has ever seen. I couldnt even watch anything about Afghanistan when this happened. This is actually the first thing i have ever watched on this debacle. I cant even put in to words my anger and frustration. My first tour in Afghanistan was in 2002, within the first 6 months of the war. I went back in 2012, and got a pretty good look at the American influence over that period of time, not to mention all the men killed and injured that i witnessed. Its hard to feel like anything we did mattered much, if at all.
There is someone who cares. We're out here man and we're tired of going to funerals about it. Thanks for your service Tyler. There's many men who couldn't have done what you did in better conditions.
Props to all who endured the hell at HKIA..It will forever be a part of their lives for as long as they live,and a stain on the failed leadership that sent them in there ..to say nothing of those many we left behind, who gave their lives to help us with our mission for 20 plus years.I am truly sorry and ashamed for how our leaders failed you!
I wish you could speak to middle school students both boys and young girls need to be inspired by truly good men. U have a mission in lif and listening to you I think it’s to enlighten. God bless you you and re a warrior
Having a missing arm must suck but it’s got to be one of the coolest looking injuries, he looks like a bad ass cyborg and prosthetics will only get better with time
Thank you Tyler. In so many ways, thank you. Mostly for your atitude and courage to live on. For finding that little girls dad. For standing for the families of the 13. For telling the truth about what really happened. The families and the American people need to know. You found purpose in the pain. Tell your momma she did good and I think it's her fighting spirit is what has given you the inspiration and fortitude to carry on. As a sister marine your story has given me new insight. The state of this country has been extremely shitty and heart breaking. My hope is that we have not been completely sold out but the American Spirit upon which it was founded will be kindled, ignited, and blaze brightly once again. May God be with us and give us wisdom to discern the truth from the lies and the courage to call it out and to rightly discern who the enemy is and to take him out....especially when the enemy is from within. Godspeed brotha, keep fightin' the good fight. It is not in vain.
Here after listening to this brave man’s testimony.. thank you sir, sorry we’ve failed you. Edit* Jesus Christ we’ve got almost identical childhoods 🤦♂️ Soo sorry brother. I hope you get the accountability you deserve ❤️🇺🇸
Thank you for your service brother, it’s one of my regrets in life, I wish I had the mindset to serve, and the father thing…. Mine was different but just as rare, I just started this damn show and just found it, you got the sub
Kids that go through a rough childhood in combat rules are so resilient to traumatic events and know how to handle themselves in certain situations much better than others who'd let that trauma keep them in a victim state of mind and do nothing in life. This dude is amazing! God bless yin'z fellas from Pittsburgh 🙏 🇺🇲
The Taliban and Isil are incredibly barbaric and very cruel- a true evil & my heart goes out to Afghan people and American soldiers! This admin is in my opinion is seditious! 💔💔💔🙏🏽🇺🇸
@@kathyborthwick6738LakotaEmoji Our government is ok with sending us to die for their pockets and it's a tale as old as time. We have a patriotic view and they used that against us. Disenfranchised is a understatement
Watching this now, at almost 2 yrs, I'm both disgusted and inspired. Disgusted by Gen Staff, and inspired by him and many others like him. To me, that is the heart of the military. When asked if I trust the military, I often pause. I am a vet of the Cold war. I have issues! That said, he and many like him make me proud as hell to have served. o7 to you 🇺🇸
He tells this story and he sees luck and I hear this story and all i can hear and see is providence and God's hand. He finds the bolt cutters early on and takes them and it ends up saving his life. I've been a medic for 15 years and I'm telling you that your physical fitness helps but it doesn't help when you've bled out. Once again, I see God's hand and I'm glad he kept this man alive to tell this story.
The amount of fight in this marine makes me proud. This is the type of perseverance we should all work to achieve.
He's got a level of perseverance that few have
Very well said. 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

Wow, I am so incredibly grateful to know that our country still produces men like these.
Not sure if you’ll see this, and you probably don’t remember me, but I met your team and you briefly in Kuwait. Your team relieved mine (3/1 STA) out there. After numerous “we got the call, we’re going in” situations getting pulled last minute I remember the feeling you talk about of not getting to play your sport. After getting relieved by you a couple months prior, I remember hearing that you guys got the call to go into Afghan, and naively being envious of your team. Then I remember getting a short glimpse through the media of the chaos and absurdity of the situation there. Seeing that y’all were thrown into a no-win situation and still crushing it. And then I remember hearing that you guys got hit. And I remember seeing your picture and recognizing you and my heart sank.
Over the last year I’ve been thinking about y’all and imagine my team and I in your shoes.

Then, apparently, she had a later relationship with a Pdf file.
Wowza.
Single mammys for the win, I mean loss.
Confused by the father being allowed to re-enter their lives, as a child molestor, however. I think that’s a major fail.
Only the body of the indestructable, immeasurable, and eternal living entity is subject to destruction.
The material body is perishable by nature. It may perish immediately, or it may do so after a hundred years. It is a question of time only. There is no chance of maintaining it indefinitely. But the spirit soul is so minute that it cannot even be seen by an enemy, to say nothing of being killed. Soul is so small that no one can have any idea how to measure its' dimension. So from both viewpoints there is no cause of lamentation because the living entity can neither be killed as he is, nor can the material body, which cannot be saved for any length of time, be permanently protected.

Thank you all for your service. I have seen Tyler tell his story a couple times now. Forgive me for wondering and asking, I assume the interpreter did not survive the blast. Any idea what happened to his wife and four children? I hope they survived and got out. God Bless America and those who fight to keep her free.
Yep the hardest thing for my husband was not being able to see combat. Never having a chance to prove yourself. Thats what he joined for and why he did Infantry.
Thank God you survived and are here to share this incredible story❤️ God bless you
That moment he discussed what he mother said on the plane. Lost it. That's impossible not to hit home. Great interview.
Our education system in the US is the biggest problem we have right now. We should be teaching our kids how good we have it, and how the rest of the world really is
Truly an amazing interview! Thank you, Sgt. Tyler Vargas-Andrews, for your service and sacrifice!!
I saw the scans this brave warrior's mom took. He has the most beautiful skin & body i ever saw. Respect, sir. Saw you on Shawn Ryan. Watched twice & am impressed at seeing a REAL MAN at such a young age. You make our country proud and that is rare in earth school today.
God bless you for your service! The utmost respect to you! 🇺🇸
Wow What An Amazing Story God Bless This Great Country And Those Brave Men And Women That Fight For Our Freedom 🇺🇲
A true American hero, great podcast. Thanks for sharing your story.
To raise awareness, I would love to see a movie made about these heroes. Similar to the movie 13 Hours: The Secret Soldiers of Benghazi
Love this channel, just found it, and you have anew subscriber sir.
This is what true heroism looks and sounds like. Whatever about Tyler's awful and traumatic injuries, his ability to recover and conquer is beyond resiliant... More people should view this post. Powerful, inspiring, emotional. xx SF
A man of strong character, conviction and integrity. I like that he said he’s a casualty of war, but not a victim. God bless him and others like him.
Wow wow what a inspiring human being...he is....he's got a whole life ahead of hem to give to the world... amazing human ...love ya Brother...
Thank you for sharing your story and for your service.
Tyler, thank you for your service! True Patriot and warrior…
It's always sad when a select few let down so, so many people, and its brave men like Tyler that try their best to right their wrongs.
Love your interviews and talks. Can’t wait to watch the next one and every one after.
One hell of a story man glad you’re still w us to tell your story Tyler thank you for your service 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸 he’s the definition of a true American
I want to meet this young man and shake his hands. He is inspiring!
You checked that beast mode box brother. Much love and respect sir.
Thank you for your service and I am glad you’re alive you’re a hero 😊
I’m so proud of you Tyler. You’re a real life hero! I love you ❤️
What a special episode, inspiring for sure.
Awesome guy!! Great interview. Thank you for the sacrifice you've made & live with. You're an amazing person & have a great outlook on what's right & what needs to done for others.
God bless Travis and the men and women willing to lay down their lives for us. How could we repay? By living a life worth these men and women getting wounded and dying for! Honor our men and women by living your life in a manner worth their sacrifice!! Amazing podcast it was an honor to hear your story. Thank you for sharing!!! ❤
In 20 years we westernized Kabul, liberated Muslim women, allowed children to be educated, and ended tyranny as a whole. An entire generation grew up free from the Taliban's grip, then gave it back in less than 30 days under the worst leadership this country has ever seen. I couldnt even watch anything about Afghanistan when this happened. This is actually the first thing i have ever watched on this debacle. I cant even put in to words my anger and frustration. My first tour in Afghanistan was in 2002, within the first 6 months of the war. I went back in 2012, and got a pretty good look at the American influence over that period of time, not to mention all the men killed and injured that i witnessed. Its hard to feel like anything we did mattered much, if at all.
There is someone who cares.
We're out here man and we're tired of going to funerals about it.
Thanks for your service Tyler. There's many men who couldn't have done what you did in better conditions.
God Bless Tyler. Wow What an INCREDIBLE INSPIRATION he is for all other people, not just Marines but for everybody. OOH Rah!
This is really good stuff here, well done.
Thank you for your service.
Props to all who endured the hell at HKIA..It will forever be a part of their lives for as long as they live,and a stain on the failed leadership that sent them in there ..to say nothing of those many we left behind, who gave their lives to help us with our mission for 20 plus years.I am truly sorry and ashamed for how our leaders failed you!
What a phenomenal individual you are, sir.
First time ever seen this channel , Now im a huge fan.. Just Thank You! Tyler thank you!
Great story at 1:23:40 of helping a little girl get her family to safety/freedom 👍🏻
Deeply grateful for you and to you, Tyler ❤
HERO LEGEND AND ABSOLUTE WARRIOR
I’m not American but I live as close as you can to America in Canada and we all salute 🫡 you
I wish you could speak to middle school students both boys and young girls need to be inspired by truly good men. U have a mission in lif and listening to you I think it’s to enlighten. God bless you you and re a warrior
Having a missing arm must suck but it’s got to be one of the coolest looking injuries, he looks like a bad ass cyborg and prosthetics will only get better with time
Man, this was a beautiful interview.
Hang tight Tyler.
Love and prayers from Detroit. 🙏💙
Never forget the people that put him in that situation and those Afghans in that position
Thank you Tyler. In so many ways, thank you. Mostly for your atitude and courage to live on. For finding that little girls dad. For standing for the families of the 13. For telling the truth about what really happened. The families and the American people need to know. You found purpose in the pain. Tell your momma she did good and I think it's her fighting spirit is what has given you the inspiration and fortitude to carry on. As a sister marine your story has given me new insight. The state of this country has been extremely shitty and heart breaking. My hope is that we have not been completely sold out but the American Spirit upon which it was founded will be kindled, ignited, and blaze brightly once again. May God be with us and give us wisdom to discern the truth from the lies and the courage to call it out and to rightly discern who the enemy is and to take him out....especially when the enemy is from within. Godspeed brotha, keep fightin' the good fight. It is not in vain.
ThNk you for your service SIR
Blessings from the HOOD🙏🏿🙏🏿
Such an amazing interview!
Better than Joe Rogan
100%, Travis is perfect at asking the right questions and just listening. No interruptions just let's the guest say what they want/need to say
🙏🎙️ thanks for tuning in
Yeah shawn ryan is great too
Here after listening to this brave man’s testimony.. thank you sir, sorry we’ve failed you. Edit* Jesus Christ we’ve got almost identical childhoods 🤦♂️
Soo sorry brother.
I hope you get the accountability you deserve ❤️🇺🇸
Thank you for your service brother, it’s one of my regrets in life, I wish I had the mindset to serve, and the father thing…. Mine was different but just as rare, I just started this damn show and just found it, you got the sub
Great show brothers. Definitely on par with other top shelf podcasts. Keep em coming.
Hey, Tyler !.......Thank you
Kids that go through a rough childhood in combat rules are so resilient to traumatic events and know how to handle themselves in certain situations much better than others who'd let that trauma keep them in a victim state of mind and do nothing in life. This dude is amazing! God bless yin'z fellas from Pittsburgh 🙏 🇺🇲
The Taliban and Isil are incredibly barbaric and very cruel- a true evil & my heart goes out to Afghan people and American soldiers! This admin is in my opinion is seditious!
💔💔💔🙏🏽🇺🇸
Very hard to forgive the American gov & Military Admin-These soldiers literally went to hell and back!
@@kathyborthwick6738LakotaEmoji Our government is ok with sending us to die for their pockets and it's a tale as old as time. We have a patriotic view and they used that against us. Disenfranchised is a understatement
Watching this now, at almost 2 yrs, I'm both disgusted and inspired. Disgusted by Gen Staff, and inspired by him and many others like him. To me, that is the heart of the military. When asked if I trust the military, I often pause. I am a vet of the Cold war. I have issues! That said, he and many like him make me proud as hell to have served. o7 to you 🇺🇸
The best for you in the life ahead ,much love for who you are and your love and dedication for our country.
He tells this story and he sees luck and I hear this story and all i can hear and see is providence and God's hand. He finds the bolt cutters early on and takes them and it ends up saving his life. I've been a medic for 15 years and I'm telling you that your physical fitness helps but it doesn't help when you've bled out. Once again, I see God's hand and I'm glad he kept this man alive to tell this story.
Amazing episode dude
