I knew a vet he said real Thai sticks was weed with melted opium in it. It got so popular he said people started calling regular weed Thai sticks in order to sell more. That's from someone who was actually there and living it
I graduated high school in 1970 my draft number was very high, but I know quite a few people who went and didn't come back. Thank you to all the Vietnam vets and all veterans from all wars. Thank you
First I want to say I’m a coward compared to anyone who served because I never offered to go and hoped never to get drafted. Unless you offered to go you don’t compare to any of these men. I say men because regardless of age the were men amongst boys. God bless you all living snd dead. 🙏🏻 rest in peace brothers
My pastor is a Vietnam veteran and every time he tells of the war in the pulpit, I can see it in his eyes. Much respect to those who served in that awful war, and to those who’ve served in other wars as well, active duty, reserves, everybody. You all are what keeps America secure so we can sleep safe at night and you all also don’t get as much respect as you deserve. God bless you everyone, and God bless the United States of America 🇺🇸
I don't blame your pastor but I do blame your country STAY AT HOME and stop interfering with everyone else's business (am a Brit twice decorated soldier my country is the same) you have it all Britain had it all you'll lose it all if you don't focus inward (happened to the British empire)
You should make a video about the longest serving Ranger in Vietnam. CSM Patrick Tadina served in Vietnam with the 173rd AB, LRRP, 74th Infantry Detachment Long Range Patrol, and Company N (Ranger), 75th Infantry. For over 5 years, between 1965 and 1970, he led long-range reconnaissance patrols deep into enemy territory - often dressed in black pajamas and sandals, and carrying an AK-47. His small stature and dark complexion helped him pass for a Viet Cong soldier on patrols in the Central Highlands. Even though he was a leader, Tadina always took point position in his team. Because of his appearance, he would brazenly walk up to within a few feet of the enemy, open fire, then hastily retreat, leading the surviving enemy pursuers directly into an ambush, previously set up by his team. A native of Hawaii, Tadina also served in the Dominican Republic, Grenada, and Iraq. During his 30-year US Army career, Tadina was cited for valor (2 Silver Stars), 10 Bronze Stars (7 with V Device), 4 Army Commendation Medals (2 with V Device) and three Purple Hearts. I believe his family is on Facebook, you could contact them in order to put together information for a video. Patrick deserves to be honored and a video by you would be a great way to honor him and his memory.
@@mrclam445 Thank you for telling me about this I just watched it. You know I saw the video pop up a few weeks ago but never clicked on it, I had planning on watching it later. The reason being is they used someone else's picture in the thumbnail-had no idea it was the video I suggested they make. The picture in The thumbnail is not Patrick It's some random dude. Also they did not mention his name or LRPs in the video title. All of this needs to be fixed. Thanks for letting me know.
The fact that this guy is 74, made it through all of that, and STILL ALIVE. This guy is not only a hero, badass, and LEGEND, but he also does motivational speeches now, has written books, and now using his story and experience to help people! Also looking at his picture this dude has great genes and barely looks over 50!
Idk, the word 'assassin' come from old middle eastern days when what we now call assassins would smoke hashish to calm their nerves before killing duty, thusly being call assassins. There's a history behind it...
Id argue it has a lot to do with it, putting your mind in a state like that while staying calm talks a lot and sometimes a lil natural help isn't a bad
I'll give it to him. Not a cheap shot but better him than I. And the enemy paid for it. War is hell! If you're better at it stoned I don't have a problem with it. God bless your heart and all of our war veterans. Future, past, and present. God bless America! 💯❤️🇺🇸
I set my standards very high. Actually, I do most everything very high, LOL. I smoked a lot of weed with Vietnam Vets. I would have been one myself, except they abandoned Saigon while I was in boot camp. 2 weeks before I graduated. Thank you for this video. They lie about cannabis.
Reagan was the one who nixed and drug use in the armed forces. It was his war on drugs, a lot of good men were discharged under other than honorable conditions!!!%
The greatest generation was every generation after WW2 as well. Despite the popularity of it all there’s still stories of heroism and bravery. Respect to all the vets! Thank you for your service!
bro i respect and admire vietnam vets more than anyone else. because they were forced into such horrific conditions for absolutely nothing. many of which were drafted and had no business being in war. and then they came back to a nation that blamed them for the acts of politicians. calling them baby killers and all that. nam vets got dealt such a bad hand on all fronts. to this day, how many are homeless and never healed from the trauma? it's a fucking travesty. vietnam vets deserved better and this nation owes them an apology at the very least. the ww2 guys went through hell too, but at least they came home to a grateful nation.
@@KR4Qep South Vietnam asked for US aid, NVA and Viet Cong coerced villages to work for them, the communist murdered intellectuals like teachers and doctors. War crimes were committed on both sides. The North won because they had better political propaganda at home and outside. You can’t discredit soldiers fighting for their country even though their government lied to them.
@@KR4Qep all I said was that Vietnam vets are also part of the greatest generation because of their lack of a heroes home welcoming but they still fought for what they thought was right.
That man, and all who served with him, were absolute badasses. Born in 72' I wasn't even a thought then. But I am still damn proud of every man and woman who served, is serving or goes out of their way to support our troops. I rarely agree with reasons for wars. But, nobody asked me. I will always support and wish well to those who put everything on the line to defend our country. Thank you.

I can't seem to get ripped anymore. No matter how good it is. Time for a tolerance break I guess. I love the flavor, but don't like smoking large amounts. If 3 or 4 tokes don't get you there, it's either not very good, or you have a massive tolerance.

thai stick sativa has more thcV, which causes euphoria and uplifting,plus and lowers hunger (much like coffee). thc is really dull by itself and cbn is the sleep inducing one.
I was born in 1965 when this war started but my heart goes out to all these young men to be sent to a country that was just jungle, then those who went came home & was treated so awfully by his own country men. May those that did died R.I.P....😢

When my grandfather enlisted in WW1 at 17 years of age(he lied so he could fight for king and country as he put it)it was booze that got him and his fellow soldiers through battle.He claimed the brass would wake the men up with hot toddy’s of rum in the morning.He would stand in line more then once just to get another taste of the good stuff.Born in England but raised in Canada,Cpl Harry Goodayle was at Vimmy Ridge,he came home in a body cast from concussion grenades.After the war he went on to start his own business,merried his childhood sweetheart and raise three children.He died at age 67 in 1966.
I don’t think you know how marijuana works.. you can scare yourself sober with regular day stuff.. being in combat for your life will definitely do it.. there’s no way that after all that fighting and all those wounds he was “more stoned than ever”.. he was probably sober as shh by then.. probably pissed he wasn’t high
Yeah absolutely a good point 😂😂😂 happens to me all the time. I don’t know if it happens to everyone but when I hear bad news or something bad happens or I get mad I start getting sober real quick!
I dunno man, I’ve fought house fires and cut people out of cars while high as a kite. I don’t suggest it, I definitely had a problem for a while. Being said, fire fighting while high is a completely different thing than being in a fire fight while high.
I didn’t break 100 pounds til freshman year but my pa taught me the combos in second grade. I went from being the bullied to being the metric of toughness, which felt the same as the bullying 😂 any way, I realized the reason I always won, I would do the Mike Tyson thing, and convince myself they were trying to kill me.
the united states military never ceases to amaze me. my brother in christ why would you build a base, let alone any meaningful structure in a dry pond in a place that experiences a monsoon season 😭
I'm a 32-year-old disabled vet and I can tell you marijuana changed my life it not only made me a lot more mellow it helps me process my emotions a lot better and it helps with chronic pain. I've had three reconstructive back surgeries I'm done with Pharmaceuticals
I know an Aussie Viet Vet who "collected" ears of dead branch managers and made necklaces out 'em and took photos of them, I asked the Guy if the vet in question would show me the pics... he said sure he would... and he did.... 😂 I was hysterical for hours and I asked the vet if that was All he removed and he said "check out the rest of the pics in that box .... I did and I thought there are some guy's who just love to Go the WHOLE Nine yards and don't even bat an eye lid... cold blood at its best 😂😂😂
Who in their right mind would ever be stupid enough to ship 8" shells to a firebase near the Cambodian border? This may very well be the biggest FUBAR'd instance of military logistics in history...
The other doc I've seen on him implicitly says it was bait for the Nva/vc. It was part of the whole recon by fire mentality. The patrols would go out, draw fire, and then call in arty or air support and take them out. Or try too anyway. So this is just an extension of that policy. With a whole base.
as a life long stoner I can attest that there are times marijuana turns me into a an unstoppable machine. Completely in the zone. Hyper focused as if time is moving at half speed. For me this is usually in the context of extreme sports but Im pretty sure it would cross over haha.
@@Gunners_Mate_Guns and I would see nothing wrong with that! Dank is an awesome storyteller. Especially with spicy jokes despite how dark the story is. Speaking of the Vietnam War, I’d love to see him do a Mad Lads on Roy Benevidez! The Real Life Rambo.
this might sound strange, even to stoners, but weed will heighten your senses and physical coordination. if you play sports.. football, skateboarding, fighting, it doesn't matter, get high and see what happens. you'll start off confused and goofy but as your body warms up and starts getting physical, shit gets extra focused pretty fast. some of my longest flow states were from doing athletic shit while high mushrooms take it to a completely different level. especially with endurance. you're so laser focused and in the zone while also having infinite energy a lot of people that smoke and eat shrooms never figure this out because they never get active while high, but those of you that have definitely know what i'm talking about i'm a pretty athletic person. muay thai my whole life, linebacker throughout high school. i surf and skate. ill spend 8 hours at taft hitting a practical course for cqb, all while high as fuck lol. but if you're not athletic, the first couple times might be hard. once you get a good foundation, athleticism wise, like after a month of just getting your body ready to be strained, then weed and shrooms will definitely take you to that next level
I used to grow a lot. Around 100 plants at an given time, all indoor. I liked to experiment with strains. I ordered some pure sativas which take forever to flower. One took like 4 months which is insane. Anyway it was like being on a strong upper. Far stronger than coffee. I couldn't do it, it made me panic but other ppl loved it. So yeah you're right
@@stephen8996this explains why for 40 years I have had random panic attacks and feeling bad after certain herb strains. Those strains weird me out I guess.
The word assassin is a variation of the arabic “hashishin”, killers who would imbibe cannabis before carrying out hits. The Thuggee cult in India also used cannabis before ritual murders. The word thug comes from their name. There is evidence that Viking berserkers used amanita mushrooms before battle to whip themselves into a frenzy and become monstrous combatants. Don’t underestimate the effect that psychoactive substances can have on a user who is a participant in acts of violence.
I have been high as hell being shot at, driving blind because I had to keep my head down. I promise it doesn't sober you up. I genuinely think being stoned help me focus because I wasn't panicking as bad as I normally would though.
Lol, depends what you smoke mate. Back then when weed was highly illegal, his stuff was probably trash compared to nowadays. Now, it's specifically bred, named, modified and evaluated to be sold a little bit higher or lower depending on the grade. Back then, you were lucky you got shake... (From what I've been told from my father) Nowadays you see the now perfect buds that have been hand picked and tended to, with great care and affection being sold as A ranked quality. Again, back then they only grew it either inside with just water and dirt, or outside in the forest, behind some shed or something... When grown and bred specifically with smoking in mind, you are expecting the best of the best and it delivers. Too well Infact...
@@sneakingpillowall of that is so true. I remember having to pick the seeds out of the bag ..until one day no seeds at all ..now I'm surprised if I see a seed.
@sneakingpillow back in the 80s here in Australia the outdoor, bush buds were stronger and better than any modern grown weed. Hydro was unheard of. Never had any modern buds that can compare to the better tasting, far stronger, naturally outdoor grown OLD SCHOOL BUSH BUDS.
@@lucasroe2878 yaaaa, that's just bs and statistically untrue. Everyone thinks the weed they smoked in the "back in the dayz" was better, cuz they were newer to it.
It’s just cannabis. There are a lot of people who function better with a little toke. I personally get motivated to move around and want to do productive stuff
As a 53-year user of THC, any time this substance induced a "surge," it was a head rush soon to be followed by total body collapse. On the other hand, I never experienced combat so who's to say the effects weren't different under those circumstances. There were rumors Charlie was covering harvested marijuana in morphine base, the next-to-last chemical state of heroin. Can't imagine what a rush from that was like!
Weed is a performance enhancer for the first 15-30 min and the first hit is always the best (the one you are chasing for the rest of the session). It gradually goes downhill after that into the realm of overstoned, can't think, territory, due to the need to keep redosing to avoid dregging out.
Right now, I'm "Highly Aware" myself and after watching this video, all I can say is F*#^Yeah! America: The land of the Legends and the home of the Heros!!

Please upvote this comment so it gets some exposure if you think it's worthy!
A fellow 173rd legend to be sure .

I will have to look that story up have you ever heard of the story of Sergeant Benavides?
My 1970 guidance counselor was a stuttering facially disfigured man who finally gave up on me. You DID NOT make fun of his stutter!
Tadina NEVER lost a single man either!
Love your videos, thanks!!!
“Rolled up his sleeves and got to work” is wild 😂
He isn't a very big guy, but he sure was a big man. Thanks, Doc.
One brave tough dude, what an effort ,they don't make'm like that anymore much respect.
When my grandfather enlisted in WW1 at 17 years of age(he lied so he could fight for king and country as he put it)it was booze that got him and his fellow soldiers through battle.He claimed the brass would wake the men up with hot toddy’s of rum in the morning.He would stand in line more then once just to get another taste of the good stuff.Born in England but raised in Canada,Cpl Harry Goodayle was at Vimmy Ridge,he came home in a body cast from concussion grenades.After the war he went on to start his own business,merried his childhood sweetheart and raise three children.He died at age 67 in 1966.
WOW, a real hero even though he may not believe so.Makes Canada Proud for being there for our friends to the south.
I don’t think you know how marijuana works.. you can scare yourself sober with regular day stuff.. being in combat for your life will definitely do it.. there’s no way that after all that fighting and all those wounds he was “more stoned than ever”.. he was probably sober as shh by then.. probably pissed he wasn’t high
Yeah absolutely a good point 😂😂😂 happens to me all the time. I don’t know if it happens to everyone but when I hear bad news or something bad happens or I get mad I start getting sober real quick!
Bro I couldn’t take anything apart from 1 beer in the battlefield. I can’t imagine the paranoia of being high or inebriated in an active battlefield
Ahhh. But the truth doesn’t make a good ending does it?
Vietnam vet t9-71
I dunno man, I’ve fought house fires and cut people out of cars while high as a kite. I don’t suggest it, I definitely had a problem for a while. Being said, fire fighting while high is a completely different thing than being in a fire fight while high.
He was high on adrenaline
I had to watch again, absolutely incredible
Bags of cheetos were laid about with the smell of marry jane and victory in the air.
What a humorous statement!
Guys like Him Saved a Lot of Lives,I wonder How He'd Vote to Day, see n What He Put in for America 🤔🇺🇲✌️💯
"more stoned than ever..." LoL! You make it sound like they were doing bong rips during battle.
The buzz would have been long gone he's going adrenaline by that stage😂
Must have been super weed.
Thank you guys that gave all
Thank you for your service...
Welcome home,thank you all so much for your service 👊🏻🇺🇸

I didn’t break 100 pounds til freshman year but my pa taught me the combos in second grade. I went from being the bullied to being the metric of toughness, which felt the same as the bullying 😂 any way, I realized the reason I always won, I would do the Mike Tyson thing, and convince myself they were trying to kill me.
Jackals are fucking tiny lmfao
Thank you for your Service 👍💯 You are like APACHE WORRIOR.
the united states military never ceases to amaze me. my brother in christ why would you build a base, let alone any meaningful structure in a dry pond in a place that experiences a monsoon season 😭
Because ass kicking season is all year long.
Thank you Vietnam Veterans for your service
What an absolute legend, to do all that stoned off his box is more than commendable.
This paired beautifully with my morning coffee session! 😉☺️
Thanks
God bless all of our troops, then and now!
I'm a 32-year-old disabled vet and I can tell you marijuana changed my life it not only made me a lot more mellow it helps me process my emotions a lot better and it helps with chronic pain. I've had three reconstructive back surgeries I'm done with Pharmaceuticals
Don’t mess with Canadians. In war, we change.
Your own government made you get an experimental vax and you got mad at the working class truckers.
“… running Berserk…”
I know an Aussie Viet Vet who "collected" ears of dead branch managers and made necklaces out 'em and took photos of them, I asked the Guy if the vet in question would show me the pics... he said sure he would... and he did.... 😂 I was hysterical for hours and I asked the vet if that was All he removed and he said "check out the rest of the pics in that box .... I did and I thought there are some guy's who just love to Go the WHOLE Nine yards and don't even bat an eye lid... cold blood at its best 😂😂😂
You are in a war now. Your government is failing you miserably. Ours too. Us too. Fortunately, we still have arms. For now.
the only troops i respect as much as Brits & Gurkhas is you guys. hands down the absolute kings of virtuous war crimes 😂
Thank you for this episode!
Outstanding as Remy would say
I remember hearing this story at the time when it happened. Remarkable.
Veterans of Vietnam have my respect completely, just saying if I were in the jungle fighting like that, I would be on drugs myself
Im 43 and I know heroes. We wouldn't be if not for those before. Straight Badasses through our history.
Who in their right mind would ever be stupid enough to ship 8" shells to a firebase near the Cambodian border? This may very well be the biggest FUBAR'd instance of military logistics in history...
And why the hell would you pile them in the middle of the base
The other doc I've seen on him implicitly says it was bait for the Nva/vc. It was part of the whole recon by fire mentality. The patrols would go out, draw fire, and then call in arty or air support and take them out. Or try too anyway. So this is just an extension of that policy. With a whole base.
Americans that's who.... slow down you tactical genius.... ffs.
as a life long stoner I can attest that there are times marijuana turns me into a an unstoppable machine. Completely in the zone. Hyper focused as if time is moving at half speed. For me this is usually in the context of extreme sports but Im pretty sure it would cross over haha.
Skydiving, desert quadbiking, not so much rafting, the cold water knocks the high outta ya. But yeah, you relaxed taking split second decisions...
Sounds like a good Mad Lads video! Haha
Dank would probably be smirking the whole time while doing this one.
@@Gunners_Mate_Guns and I would see nothing wrong with that! Dank is an awesome storyteller. Especially with spicy jokes despite how dark the story is. Speaking of the Vietnam War, I’d love to see him do a Mad Lads on Roy Benevidez! The Real Life Rambo.
@@Mach5Johnny Yes on Master Sergeant Benavidez!
He's the real life embodiment of the phrase "Heroes get remembered; legends never die."
thank god for our troops!!🤗🤗🤗🤗
Please make this a series and do Aimo Koivunen next.
GOD bless them. Salute to all the veterans
this might sound strange, even to stoners, but weed will heighten your senses and physical coordination.
if you play sports.. football, skateboarding, fighting, it doesn't matter, get high and see what happens. you'll start off confused and goofy but as your body warms up and starts getting physical, shit gets extra focused pretty fast. some of my longest flow states were from doing athletic shit while high
mushrooms take it to a completely different level. especially with endurance. you're so laser focused and in the zone while also having infinite energy
a lot of people that smoke and eat shrooms never figure this out because they never get active while high, but those of you that have definitely know what i'm talking about
i'm a pretty athletic person. muay thai my whole life, linebacker throughout high school. i surf and skate. ill spend 8 hours at taft hitting a practical course for cqb, all while high as fuck lol. but if you're not athletic, the first couple times might be hard. once you get a good foundation, athleticism wise, like after a month of just getting your body ready to be strained, then weed and shrooms will definitely take you to that next level
Yes! after all the comments I was wondering if it was just me.
Also much less sore afterwards, recovery smoother
Depends on the strains and person too (ie sativa vs indica vs hybrid).. with indica being more uplifting and sativa more sedating for some
Rolled up his sleeves and got to work. What an American!
Smells like...VICTORY!
The NVA were harshing on his buzz and just wasn't going to have it!
Thank you!
Great story! Here's the proof that it should be legal everywhere!
Just an amazing story.
What a legend! Love war stories ❤️
most dont know but most tropical grown cultivars have thcV, which is more like coffee... iykyk
Sativas are nice
Yep ! I like to smoke a bone before doing yardwork. Mowing the grass and whacking the weeds while in my happy place the entire time. 🙂
@@ageingviking5587yes me too! I gave up drinking in 2020 ..and weed is certainly better than drinking in my opinion..
I used to grow a lot. Around 100 plants at an given time, all indoor. I liked to experiment with strains. I ordered some pure sativas which take forever to flower. One took like 4 months which is insane. Anyway it was like being on a strong upper. Far stronger than coffee. I couldn't do it, it made me panic but other ppl loved it. So yeah you're right
@@stephen8996this explains why for 40 years I have had random panic attacks and feeling bad after certain herb strains. Those strains weird me out I guess.
THANKS !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I guarantee that joint did nothing once the fight began.
Yeah , I think so too.
Agreed. You'd be stoned cold sober at the first sound of enemy fire. Great story though. 🇨🇦
Yall never smoked strong weed then. You can be in a shoot out and stuff and still be high as hell
The word assassin is a variation of the arabic “hashishin”, killers who would imbibe cannabis before carrying out hits. The Thuggee cult in India also used cannabis before ritual murders. The word thug comes from their name. There is evidence that Viking berserkers used amanita mushrooms before battle to whip themselves into a frenzy and become monstrous combatants. Don’t underestimate the effect that psychoactive substances can have on a user who is a participant in acts of violence.
I have been high as hell being shot at, driving blind because I had to keep my head down. I promise it doesn't sober you up. I genuinely think being stoned help me focus because I wasn't panicking as bad as I normally would though.
Thank you SIR for your service and bravery. May God Bless you and your family AMEN.
Adrenaline and thc do mix well... Thats my sport bike addiction in a nutshell
Skateboarding for me, but yes
Loved the sound track 😜👌🇦🇺
WHOEVER WROTE THIS HAS OBVIOUSLY NEVER SMOKED WEED IN THEIR LIFE LMAO
Lol, depends what you smoke mate. Back then when weed was highly illegal, his stuff was probably trash compared to nowadays. Now, it's specifically bred, named, modified and evaluated to be sold a little bit higher or lower depending on the grade. Back then, you were lucky you got shake... (From what I've been told from my father)
Nowadays you see the now perfect buds that have been hand picked and tended to, with great care and affection being sold as A ranked quality. Again, back then they only grew it either inside with just water and dirt, or outside in the forest, behind some shed or something...
When grown and bred specifically with smoking in mind, you are expecting the best of the best and it delivers. Too well Infact...
@@sneakingpillowall of that is so true. I remember having to pick the seeds out of the bag ..until one day no seeds at all ..now I'm surprised if I see a seed.
@sneakingpillow back in the 80s here in Australia the outdoor, bush buds were stronger and better than any modern grown weed. Hydro was unheard of. Never had any modern buds that can compare to the better tasting, far stronger, naturally outdoor grown OLD SCHOOL BUSH BUDS.
@@lucasroe2878 must have been that spider toxin, we had shake and the odd decent one.
@@lucasroe2878 yaaaa, that's just bs and statistically untrue. Everyone thinks the weed they smoked in the "back in the dayz" was better, cuz they were newer to it.
My favorite episode so far ❤❤❤
It’s just cannabis. There are a lot of people who function better with a little toke. I personally get motivated to move around and want to do productive stuff
same
I always classed myself as a "productive pothead". I was always the one who would be like "Now we're stoned let's go do something fun/stupid."
Canadian too! We seem to always send our best…
badass bro.. badaasss
As a 53-year user of THC, any time this substance induced a "surge," it was a head rush soon to be followed by total body collapse. On the other hand, I never experienced combat so who's to say the effects weren't different under those circumstances. There were rumors Charlie was covering harvested marijuana in morphine base, the next-to-last chemical state of heroin. Can't imagine what a rush from that was like!
I was born on fort Polk US military Base.. I take pride in that shit!! Get em boys!!!
Really hammered the significance of that one joint lmao
That must have been some awesome smoke
Weed is a performance enhancer for the first 15-30 min and the first hit is always the best (the one you are chasing for the rest of the session). It gradually goes downhill after that into the realm of overstoned, can't think, territory, due to the need to keep redosing to avoid dregging out.
11:08 Thats not Peter Lemon, its the lanky guy with the stash and glasses
Yea the one with the medal around his neck!
⚡👍 Just hearing dude say "stoned" makes this clip classic! 😂
Anyone who has ever smoked marijuana will know beyond a shadow of a doubt that it is not a performance enhancing drug…
Wrong!!!
Talking about the army while showing U. S. Marine Corps training is amazing 😆 SEMPER Fi
MY MAN!
I've heard of eco warriors, but this is ridiculous!
My grandfather was there too ❤from🇳🇱
After smoking a joint my first impulse has always been to run for a bag of Cheetos. Never had the impulse to jump onto an M-60.
You've only smoked indica 😂
Thank you for not joining the military.
Bag o grenades, bag o Cheetos, same same, different but same😅
Right now, I'm "Highly Aware" myself and after watching this video, all I can say is F*#^Yeah! America: The land of the Legends and the home of the Heros!!
