Nice to hear you give respect for infantry and "regular" soldiers. It always annoys me when they show infantry or cops as being incompetent, as if only SF or Feds have their shit together. Some guys may get more training and access to better resources, but there are a lot of "regulars" who have experience and take it upon themselves to go above and beyond the training they are provided.
Right like there are some pretty high fucking speed grunts and street cops. And he’ll if you sign an 18x contract they send you to infantry osut before the sfqc However these guys are civil affairs so fighting isn’t their main job they are the hearts and minds area
I rode turret for most of my deployment. Everything you said about riding turret is absolutely correct. Being in the turret allowed you to essentially control the tempo of the patrol also. If I felt we were being too passive, then I could start yelling at the Iraqis more allowing me to kinda amp up the driver. This helped out because midtour we got a new PL who couldn't read the environment yet. Edit: yeah that breeze feels good until 130*, then it feels like a hair dryer.
I can confirm from the Iraq perspective that when sh** was about to go down, EVERYONE was gone. Busy streets and markets would be empty, and only bad guys were left. So when it was super quiet the hairs on your neck were definitely standing at attention! You guys are awesome. I like hearing your perspectives against each other with different points of view!
We had a problem during OSUT that 3ID guys in 06 were paying a guy to drop an engine block on their foot to get out of deployment. Lmao, there were like 5 guys at the hospital for the same injury. Had bad kidney stones and watched this debacle unfold
@FNG ACADEMY Yeah, at the ticket spot for your prescription part of the hospital by the doors? I was getting my ticket, lmao, and there were like 3 of them with the same story. My "battle buddy" turned to me like "what the fuck is going on"
@@FNGACADEMY React to #KGFCHAPTER2 TRAILER.. 😍 🔥🔥Super and amazing trailer. 109 Million +views in 24hours.. 🔥🔥 Also most viewed video in 24 hours world 🔥🔥 KGF IS NOT JUST A MOVIE ITS AN EMOTION ❤️❤️
Starting at 2:43, I noticed people crossing into other sight pictures and was happy to see you called the on it a moment later. I see this ALL THE TIME in movies where extras aren't taught to stay in their lane and walk through others' sight pictures and the extras don't react to that as someone would in real life. Drives me nuts to see it. Yeah, the convoy handling was nuts. I'd never even HEARD of this movie, I guess I need to watch it now!
I manned a 240b on a Marine MRAP out in Syria back in 2019. It had the side and back panels but because I was 5'6 it was hard for me to see anything over it, even with me standing on the sidewalls of the gunners platform. With the 240 sitting on my shoulder, the weapon system stayed pointed at the rooftops. Good thing it was at night but it was also terrifying because you see people on the rooftops with AKs and Cellphones.
heck man i loved the armor. my first trip we had soft skin shellbacks with zero armor. a few guys tried a layer of sandbags but if they didn't slide off when the driver took a turn or curve a bit too quick they would then emit the fine powder that gave them the effect of a mild sandblast to the face and also deposit a decent layer (on top of a normal layer) of said powder onto the entire contents of the truck, to include the driver and tc who none to happy about that really. also of note that since there was no armor your view was unobstructed and it was easy to move the gun which made reaction time quicker. then we got these shields that mounted in conjunction with the gun mount and at 72 mph (or the p on the bottom of the speedo i think maybe the h for those who know shoutout old timers) that thing was impossible to move back to 3 or 9 much less 1 (which was my favorite when up front in lead) cause it was like a sail that just kept the wind in it. all that said we finally got hillbilly armor and then 1/2 way through we got 1114's which had mechanical turrets. MUCH better. but i would sit in that freakin 100 plus sun on the side of the road with that 9 pound bucket baking my brain cells for hours on end sometimes (we escorted convoys almost exclusively) and wishing it just had a camo net over me. i implored everyone with a rockers and just stripes even to go to kbr and have them weld on some small angle iron and toss some chicken wire and tie some camo nettin over it for some relief but no one had the balls to do it. well for my next deployment to the stan every truck but americans had that chicken wire with netting type deal. then i went to kuwait and still no covers for the americans but for a few. most by that time also we sportin the mraps and such. but i would have any job but the gunner if i could help it. good analysis on the movie i saw it but forgot all about it. may check it out again.
My biggest complaint was they wanted me name tape defilade, but gave me a belt to sit on. I didnt have a 1114 but a to standard tow missile truck. There was no mechanical turret. You prayed you didn't have to shoot laterally while pushing through a kill zone. Ma duece and the turret shield blowing whereever the wind took it. I understand why the added the armor, but i wasn't happy with them added 200 lbs to my hip actuated turret. I tell you this, I hurt my old lady when I came home, lol.
Also there is absolutely no sound as eerie as a twin turbo HMMVW full throttle barking all four tires in a turn. A caprice full of drunk Kurds didn't drive thru our checkpoint. A pursuit ensued. Lol
Just a former bang bang here but man I had to man a CROW truck in Paktika. Standing through the turret with no shield because someone had to depress the butterfly on the .50 cal. Scarred shitless the whole time but the things we do for our brothers. Man I would love to be able to do one of these with you. Righteous content Buck. Keep it coming.
I love it when Abel Co-chairs because he asks our questions about things you just blow over because you know it all. He represents 90% of us. But don't make him do push up guys, he deserves the beer.
I grew up in Orange County but moved to Victorville a few years ago...every time Sean and Abel mention Hesperia or Phelan it gives me that extra level of familiarity in that I know where they are from.
I can't even imagine how hot a bulletproof bubble would be over a turret, as much sense as it makes to stop bullets and shrapnel. 100% less fun if you're Buck up there for the breeze. I had no idea the turrets were semi smart and turn toward shots though, that's pretty sweet.
Pretty sure they are Civil Affairs(definitely not infantry.). Army Reserves does not have combat arms, which I think the main character mentioned he was a Reservist. Love the Reacts vids, learning a bunch.
Reserve CA dude here, formerly active duty Infantry officer as well. I watched this last night with my wife and was wildly surprised to see my unit patch in a war movie haha, really cool film though.
Pretty sure those guys are CA rather than infantry. Just going off of their mission, and I'm pretty sure I saw a USACAPOC patch when buddy was getting his ass whooped at about the 9:40 mark.
Love you two and your insights into videos! Excellent point regarding reaching the tail end of deployments. Soldiers start placing personal survivability before mission and team. That's when mistakes happen.
Shout out to those PJs man, these guys man are such professionals in combat medical and in combat situations, every ex-military or ex-SF dudes that I have asked on YT of course they all say that if a PJ patch you up you are going to live no matter the cost. What surprised me even more is their size most special operations unit except Green Berets are around 2,00/2,500 while PJs are like 500 that’s insane and their selection is no joke it’s like a sandpaper dildo but the grit of the sandpaper is lower (lower the grit the more coarse it is for sandpaper) for Green Berets it’s around 10,000 in size but take that with a grain of salt
My RG33 took a direct hit from a deep-burried IED; MEDEVAC'd 3/6 of the people in the truck and 4/6 got Purple Hearts. But that remote-weapon-system saved my gunner's life; pretty sure he would've been thrown out of the truck and turned into goo if he'd been up in the hatch.
The tops for the turrets would trap incoming rounds, and ricochet around in them. Also they heat up.. they suck, plus you don’t have 360 vision unless you spin.
I just rewatched 13 hours, and thought of you guys. Imo as a civilian the movie has very entertaining action, but overall is just as ridiculous as you expect a michael bay movie to be. Would be fun to hear your opinion on it.
I heard in previous videos that you were with 10th Group. Im currently stationed with them as support but i was wondering if you were still in the area or if you have moved from Colorado since. I dont recall your time out here but im sure its been awhile
In both Iraq and Afghanistan we took sections of Hescoe barriers with the burlap on then and used them as "Sniper covers" . They worked better for the sun
I chuckled when he called Air force PJ's flight medics. They are more than just medics on planes they are tactical rescue trained in ocean diving and free fall insertion and can rescue people in a lot of types of accidents but also get a little bit of training in all fields of air force special warfare.
Whist not a movie, I’d love to see you guys react to Jeremy Clarksons documentary on the Victoria Cross. It’s quite the video and shows a lot of the stories of how men won them in the commonwealth military.
That's an epic documentary 👍 Really wish History Channel or Discovery would've bought the rights to broadcast it back when they actually had real military history content, I never even saw it replayed on BBC US, just on UA-cam, so sadly most Americans are unaware of the significance/history and the awesome documentary to briefly explain it in an entertaining fashion 👍
Hey Sean do you know if having been med boarded from the Army previously will affect chances of getting back in on an 18x? My contract wasnt something I was super into anyway but at least I learned a lot and am finding a path I would enjoy through your content so thanks!
Just to add to what Buck said. I was Navy and then switched to Army about two years ago. I had to go back through basic and AIT along with some other prior service guys and I know a lot of them had 18X contracts. No idea about the med board part of your question though.
Ty for sharing and elaborating some of the scenes and sequence found in these films. You have broaden my perspective and knowledge to the things you SF guys do. Im a civilian from the Philippines, who enjoys listening and learning from your perspective and experience.
Don't forget the Army Dustoff guys when you are giving shout outs to the Medevac folks. PJ's are cool, but the Dustoff have prob pulled more missions and saved more lives. The AF Search and Rescue (Pedro) have the guns, the cool looking gear, and PJ''s, but Dustoff is all balls and no guns! DUSTOFF!!
Being in a reserve CA unit I’m afraid to ask about this. It looks like a typical CA mission from a purely schoolhouse perspective, building pumps, digging wells, hearts n minds n shit, the uphill battle of a shitty situation. The guy that wrote it is an OIF vet, so it hit a lot of truths, not perfect but pretty good in my eyes. Personally I hated the CROWS just cuz I always got carsick. Man doin little half squats back there.
Only time I was on a helicopter was my exfil and I don't even really remember it. I just remember it was loud & felt like riding a wave then everything went black. 😂 Poor Abel.. I saw that look! I'd be faded after 1 beer! 🤣 Great movie and review gent's! 🇺🇲🤘🏼
I have seen someone burned alive, helped put them out and get him away from the source of the fire, which was a gas tanker truck, upside down, on fire. I witnessed the entire wreck in 2001. I've never been in war or the military but that incident gave me ptsd. It sucks because I don't have insurance or resources available to help me with it. I just trust in the Lord. God bless you & ty for your service!
I understand entirely. I was 8 years old the first time that I saw someone’s brains spill out on the pavement. It happened while I was on my way to school. I’ve had similar experiences that haven’t had the same impact on me.
Man, I was a turret gunner. I ran a couple convoys filling in as TC, couldn't stand it. Can't stand being couped up inside the truck. That scene with the truck coming up, and the IED at the water plant, those fucking hit hard.
Found it on netflix a couple of months back, it was actually good🥰 can you guys react on movies with futuristic soldiers haha... Or react to the movie 13 hours: the secret soldiers of Bengazi...🥰
Buck possibly refers to the Oshkosh M-ATV which was part of the MRAP programme iirc, if any of you want to see just how mean it looks. Well, pretty much all MRAPs look like absolute beasts. I may well be wrong though, it’s from distant memory.
Firstly, I love watching beers and breakdowns. I would love it if you could breakdown the fim Gallipoli. It's part of Australian history, and one of Mel Gibsons early movies. Thanks guys.
I saw a video of one who came back. He said they were being sent out with like 10 rounds and no plates, and when they refused to go the Ukrainians threatened to shoot them in the back.
This dvd was literally at the Grandstaff library at JBLM. I knew nothing about it and then when I watched it I was like how the f. does no one know about this movie?
Bring on the spoilers! I'd be willing to bet I'll enjoy this more than the actual movie.. and a good chance I'll be able to better enjoy it with a new expanded perspective. If I had a beer I'd crack it and join you.. in the drinking.. just the drinking.. not the pushups.. I'm not here for that lol Edit: I realized I had actually just watched this.. wasn't aware of the title when I did. Everything I said still holds true tho.
When i was 10 i was walking home from school in NYC and something hit the ground next to me and i looked at it and it was a bundle of clothes. Blue pants, a knit sweater, maybe a blanket. And i thought "wow somebody threw their laundry out the window" and then i saw "red stains" i thought like "yeap, definitely laundry" and then i saw white curly hair and thought "wow, theres a wig in the laundry that fell out of th-Oh its an old lady who just committed suicide and she hit the air conditioners on the way down and has lacerations." It wasnt a rough thing to deal with, or live with AT ALL... but i wont forget that.
They’ve got USACAPOC patches, so technically they’re reserve CA or PsyOp. But knowing Hollywood they probably just slapped some patches on to look good for the movie.
The Patch is Civil Affairs - Rosner screenwriter check the credits - 418th Civil Affairs Iraq 2003. The movie is fictional but borrows from our deployment.
Yeah the way these guys were doing the stair clearance and the amount of noise they were making didnt really sit well with me but I imagine at the time that was the way they were taught

The bmw power bottom was probably pretty good at the air squats!! Mwuhaha!!

Hello there, love y'all's show. Ever see " siege of jadotville" it's a fantastic film and would love to see you guys break it down...
Firstly, I love watching beers and breakdowns.
I would love it if you could breakdown the fim Gallipoli. It's part of Australian history, and one of Mel Gibsons early movies.
Thanks guys.
Gotta watch kajaki kilo two bravo
ill look it up
I just watched this last night. I gotta say I enjoyed it. Pretty good movie.
Hey would you do “escape from tarkov raid” series? That would be bad ass man!
I have a question I'm not seeing being asked. What's happening with the people who volunteered to fight for Ukraine?
I saw a video of one who came back. He said they were being sent out with like 10 rounds and no plates, and when they refused to go the Ukrainians threatened to shoot them in the back.
@@animula6908 I'm hearing that as well. And to add, passports are being confiscated...that under marshal law no one can levee until the war is over.
yea no thanks
Looks like you did a lot of pushups and air squats there buck! Lmao!!
maybe lol
pls do a video on Hyena Road....not american but canadian military flick ...cheers
This dvd was literally at the Grandstaff library at JBLM. I knew nothing about it and then when I watched it I was like how the f. does no one know about this movie?
They have nv now!
I still wanna know why a unit with a USACAPOC patch is acting like infantry
Have you reacted to "We Were Soldiers" yet? I would love to see your views on that film.
haha. i love these guys. "No rep" lol
To hell and back . It’s an old movie but it’s also a true story on one of the highest decorated solders . In WW2
My first time in sturgis 17 years old I seen a guy die after he beefed it on his motorcycle his brain was like a line across the road.
Bring on the spoilers! I'd be willing to bet I'll enjoy this more than the actual movie.. and a good chance I'll be able to better enjoy it with a new expanded perspective.
If I had a beer I'd crack it and join you.. in the drinking.. just the drinking.. not the pushups.. I'm not here for that lol
Edit: I realized I had actually just watched this.. wasn't aware of the title when I did. Everything I said still holds true tho.
When i was 10 i was walking home from school in NYC and something hit the ground next to me and i looked at it and it was a bundle of clothes. Blue pants, a knit sweater, maybe a blanket. And i thought "wow somebody threw their laundry out the window" and then i saw "red stains" i thought like "yeap, definitely laundry" and then i saw white curly hair and thought "wow, theres a wig in the laundry that fell out of th-Oh its an old lady who just committed suicide and she hit the air conditioners on the way down and has lacerations." It wasnt a rough thing to deal with, or live with AT ALL... but i wont forget that.
Wait so do you guys sit down. Watch the entire movie and react to part or do you pre watch it and pick parts to talk about??
Can you react to RESTREPO???
sure can, was in 173rd with the medic from that movie
@@FNGACADEMY no fuckin way. Dude, you are badass i wish I could meet you one day
Please do The Rock!!!!!!
did it! coming soon! such a good movie
@@FNGACADEMY That's why you're the best!
They’ve got USACAPOC patches, so technically they’re reserve CA or PsyOp. But knowing Hollywood they probably just slapped some patches on to look good for the movie.
I was expecting him to say more about the movie but he spent the whole video explaining every question his buddy had
Great breakdown
Did you ever ride in a MMPV
If youre doing Sand Castle you gotta do Tigerland
Can you do a midnight clear? Great ww2 movie
The Patch is Civil Affairs - Rosner screenwriter check the credits - 418th Civil Affairs Iraq 2003. The movie is fictional but borrows from our deployment.
If I got to do squats to drink beer im going to be really sober
Can you do a Beers and Breakdown of “The long road home”
Yeah the way these guys were doing the stair clearance and the amount of noise they were making didnt really sit well with me but I imagine at the time that was the way they were taught
I had a light Colonel request form my boss that my team take him to where Babylon used to be just to get some photos.
45 ⁰ angle elbow n arm fam
I have seen more burned-up bodies than I care to remember. If my mind could only forget what my eyes have seen.
They are supposedly Civil Affairs in an infantry platoon
