i messed up. Pearl Harbor Dec. 7th Declaration of war Dec. 8th I still had it in my head as pearl harbor being the 8th because of the wake island video i did recently (due to timezone it was the 8th on wake island). My bad I apologize.
You can go back and watch some more. Lol. I do. His trade videos are awesome, as well as his appearances on The Unsubscribe Podcast, especially the bit about the USS Barb. Fantastic videos, stories, and historical education. A truly golden content creator. With incredible humor and meme clips thrown in for highly effective content emphasizing fire. Lol
The final quote by Lewis Millet in this video really cements himself as a true American patriot. Americans today would do well to heed those words and remember why and how we're all where we are.
When you see that old timer sitting alone at the VA. Don't be scared to sit down and talk to them. The stories some of them have are amazing. All the respect to our old timers.
I was at Honolulu airport and sat down next to a family with a old man in a wheelchair, and I noticed the old man in the wheelchair had a USS Arizona hat on. I asked him about it, and he said that he was here for the memorial ceremony. turns out he was one of the last few USS Arizona survivors and I made sure to shut up and just listen to whatever he had to say. I met another man while on a service call, in 2020, who worked the docks at pearl harbor, and I made sure just to listen.
Agree 100%. One of the most interesting convos I ever had was with a Korean vet who flew F-86s. The stories out of combat he told me were gut-bustlingly hilarious. 10/10 you see an old vet sitting by himself, by the man a cup of joe, and chat with him, you will not regret it.
Minute in and I’m gonna make the prediction, this man took more pride in his mustache and bayonets than Marines took pride in being Marines, which is a pretty huge achievement to pull off.
I had the privilege of being part of the color guard for this mans funeral. It was such cool event, Helicopter flyover, 21 gun salute, the works. Definitely something I’ll never forget.
It would have been an honor to be there the day this patriot was laid to rest. I would have shed a tear to know that a man this brave defended freedom for me..long before i was even born.
I met him while I was stationed at Osan AB, where Bayonet Hill is located, a hill we knew as Hill 180. I was a Security Forces member, although we were called Security Police back then. The road leading up the hill was called Millet Road and at the time I had no idea there was blood in that dirt. Enter Col. Millet to the story. He came and gave us a speech on why that road was named after him. That was the moment I went from a cocky young Airmen to a truly respectful Airmen who finally understood the reverance the men who came before me deserved. He was the one who taught me whose shoulders I stood on and the respect those men deserved by guys like me, and I do respect them greatly. If you're one of those men reading this I want you to know how much men like me respect you. Everything we benefited from you guys got earned the hard way. Our tactics, our uniforms, our weaponry, everything you guys paved the way. I didn't lose ALL my friends because many of you did and I am grateful for all of your sacrifices.
One of my history teachers met him when he was in korea... He was security as well, and had been told about a crazy lunatic who was teaching his troops to use the bayonettes...only met him later on
Much respect to our northern neighbors who helped him get there! I got to work with some of your military folks last month. Still some solid people, always a pleasure
As an American, I loved hearing about your savage war history deep in the trenches. Respect to our syrup swiggin, sword swingin, overly polite, homies to the north. ✌️😎🇺🇲🇨🇦 We didn't learn this in public school 😐
A friend of mine I used to play with online in COD was Canadian, he pulled some Gangster fucning plays man. You all just think alittle different and it's cool as fuck.
Buddy. You do a full length, fricking 2 hour long special on your favourite historical event and I'll be there with slippers, a cuppa and my undivided attention. Potentially one of the best story tellers on the interweb.

I actually met him and spent a couple hours talking to him. His son died when the civilian plane full of the 101st went down in 85. His son’s wife was friends with my girlfriend and we went over to offer our condolences. Very nice guy.
Had no idea Canadians were going hard in the trenches, glad to know it now though! I do remember the Germans wanting to ban the pump shotgun bc of what 1 man could do in a trench full of Germans.
@VictorRomeo1917 and Passchendaele, Festubert, Hill 70.... Canadians were there from January 1915 until the very last shot. IIRC, the last Canadian to die in WW1 was shot on November 11th, 1918, at about 10:59 am, trying to take Mons so the Brits didn't feel bad about losing it.
There's two things I learned about Canadians. One, don't take their hockey chirps seriously. Two, take their military very seriously. They are absolute savages as war fighters.
Thank you so much! He was the guest speaker at my Military Police Officer Basic course. The most touching part is that his grandson followed in his footsteps and joined the 101st. Unfortunately he was killed in the plane crash at Gander, Newfoundland. Upon completion of his speech, we were awed to be in his presence and were silent before giving him a standing ovation.
Millett actually grew up on a farm in Massachusetts. He was born in Mechanic Falls, Maine, but was raised in South Dartmouth, Massachusetts, by his mother and stepfather. He joined the Massachusetts National Guard in 1938 while still attending Dartmouth High School. (He didn't graduate until 1940.) His classmates knew him well enough that in his yearbook he was voted most likely to be a "soldier of fortune!"
Nic is a wordsmith and that makes learning very easy. He ties in all subjects (math, science, and other 💩) involved with the piece of history to explain why it's either straight up gangster 💩, bat💩crazy, OR, so hilarious that you 💩 yourself from laughter.
Supporting Freedom, the American Way, and all of that are a powerful incentive that caused many of us to enlist in the conflicts of the last 80 years or so. When you watch a soldier with Louis Millet's (I don't remember his rank when he retired) history and experience, he's remembering all of those years and fellow soldiers from an entirely different perspective. What an amazing example for those who want to carry on that mission. We need them and they're becoming much more difficult to find...
He was the base commander of Ft Devins Mass, when I was training for the ASA in 1966 . He had a bayonet on his desk in a scabbard that was stuck in with blood, or so the story goes. The story was that he had won every medal the Army gave except the "Good Conduct Medal"
Man that clip of him talking at the end hit me right in the feels. What a great man. To be so gangster but then so humble and filled with love for his country still, just an awesome dude
Love for yourself isn't worth a damn on the battlefield. Love for something bigger; family, faith, country, is what pulls one through. if you die, you die knowing you did your best and lived up to the ideals. If you make it, you know it was worth it and would do it again.
They aren’t known because most textbooks are produced by a few large companies. And most large companies are about globalism, not nationalism. So they teach your politically correct version is stuff. Thereby depriving you of reasons to be proud of your Nation.
@@victorkreig6089I do know teachers that tried to sprinkle these stories in. The problem is that there's just so many that it's hard to do them all justice without extending the school days. School essentially tries to give you a broad swath of knowledge, and only once you get to higher education that you start specializing.
3500 Americans died while serving in the Canadian Expeditionary Forces in WW1 before the US entered the war. There are thousands of heroes most people don't know about. My great uncle died outside Ieper (aka Ypres) in 1916. His body is still there, with tens of thousands of others, near Menin Gate. Edit: America may not honor them, but EVERY SINGLE NIGHT since 1928, the people of that area do. They hold the ceremony called 'Last Post" at Menin Gate. They've conducted the ceremony over 33,000 times.
Ok, got two competing "thoughts" here, the first is that the line "this mustache isn't going to ride itself" was epic and the second is to say thank you for ending the video with the clip of COL Millett, we need to see things like that more often.... And overall a big thank you for this video!
Hill 180 is located on Osan Air Force Base South Korea. I was stationed there for 2 years and walked that hill every day to get to work and back. Thank you for honoring Lewis Millet with this video!
Is Hill 180 the big hill that goes up to the main gate? If so I stayed in one of the dorms literally at the bottom of that hill when I was stationed there. Right across from the football field. Never knew.
I was all smiles until that last second of the video where this absolute badass of a man starts tearing up saying the most patriotic thing I've ever heard. What a gem of a video.
I love how you end your videos with interview footage or audio from the person the video is about. Really nice touch. His words at the end absolutely get you in the feels.
like them no sir . We Love them. I thank you for educating me and many others on the great history we as Americans should know but were never taught.@@the_fat_electrician
@@cyrusatkinson3307 aint nothin more beautiful than the greatest country on earth making commie smoothies with a side of freedom thats coming from a teenager
To further cement this All American badass in his badassery, SLA Marshal described the Battle of Bayonet Hill as the most complete bayonet charge the US army had made since Cold Harbor 1864. 87 years and 2 world wars prior.
Thanks for giving us the story of this American hero. We should remember that America had political arguments at home throughout the '30s, '40s, and, 50s. Not that different than today. Even with those politics going on people like Lewis Millet saw that dark forces outside of our borders should be faced head on. Yes, some Americans, even a wealthy car maker, supported the German leadership before WWII. Still, we found a way to come together and prevent the fall of western civilization under the boot of an authoritarian dictatorship.
I was extremely fortunate to meet Col. Millet more than a few times during my service with the US Army. He would visit my battalion (3/27, "Wolfhounds", 7th ID at Ft.Ord) and he would motivate us by sharing his incredible battle stories, and especially his bayonet stories!!
I met him several times myself. A couple of times in HI when assigned to B Co 2/27 Wolfhounds. The most memorable being the regiments 100th anniversary. He was the honorary regimental commander at the time and if you were there for the end of his speech you know why it was so memorable. The first time I ran into him was in 1995 at Ft. Campbell for the 10th anniversary of the Gander crash. Didn't know who he was at the time except for a man with the MOH around his neck remembering his lost son.
"....where all the future hot secretaries were..." @ 3:01 That is EXACTLY why I took a typing class my sophomore year in high school way back in the '80s....that's where the chicks were, and the teacher was a first year teacher and a total smokeshow. But it has served me well since, even though my motivation at the time to take the class wasn't to learn to type.....
Being aware than most women are not wearing their correctly sized undergarments and communicating this to a hiring manager got me a cashier position at Victoria's Secret in my 20's. This enabled such fun future anecdotes as paying a friend with a free bra to be my designated driver on one of my birthdays... :D
I had the honor of meeting him several times while stationed in Hawaii with 2-27IN. He came out to my site in Egypt at MFO. He always shared his knowledge and stories and absolutely loved being with soldiers. A great American! Sadly, one of his sons was killed while returning to Ft. Campbell from MFO in the Gander, Newfoundland plane crash.
Reminds me of 'To Hell And Back' with Audie Murphy. They actually had to tone things down in the movie because he felt people wouldn't believe some of the things he actually did for real.
Same with Hacksaw Ridge. In real life, Desmond Doss was badly wounded and rolled off the stretcher to continue administering first aid to his comrades. They didn't include that in the ending scene because it was too unbelievable.
Including present military and police, sadly. WWII vets knew what it meant to protect and defend the constitution. Seeing unabashed Nazis in their midst is heartbreaking.
A man not only who loved his country and the ideals on which it was predicated but was willing to fight for others around the world to have those same freedoms by any means necessary. Great man!
This man is the "True American Hero" I am absolutely ashamed to say that I haven't heard of. Appreciate ya nick for sharing this dudes story of FAFO and badassery.
Not to mention the fact that ge was one of VERY FEW medal of honor recipients that were alive still when they received the medal. That in its self is huge
I don't know why so many people repeat that monstrous falsehood. 91.5% of Medals of Honor have been awarded to living recipients, according to the Congressional Medal of Honor Society.
Our grandpa Hutch fought in WW2, Korea and two tours in Vietnam as a United States Marine. Gunnery Sargent and a sniper. He was a humble man and we miss him. He died well into his 90’s. Our youngest son loved to visit him and listen to his stories and wisdom (his great grandson). Our military deserves so much respect and we need to strengthen it NOW. It’s ridiculous what’s happening right now in our military. Unacceptable.
Hey man. Many people, like myself, would not not know the story of these men if you didn’t tell them. Keep up the good work. You’re doing a great service to the memory of these heroes. Quackbang out.
@@the_fat_electricianI know you probably don't need any story ideas, but.... November 3, 1974 - the USS James Madison, Holy Loch, Scotland. (It's always the Navy lol!)
"That moustache isn't going to sit on itself now is it?" Lmao. This is quickly becoming one of my favorite channels. Badass war heroes and war stories are just gnarly. I guess these days, I have to say anyone could like war stories but they just work men into a frenzy. I remember when I was a kid watching First Blood (and other similar stuff) with my dad and little brother and we'd always end up wrestling around (somebody usually got hurt), arm wrestling, having push-up contests, taking the guns out and shit like that lol - just from getting so fired up... My dad's middle name (and my first name) is Randall - and he always calls himself "Rando" lol...
I remember some interview with BRCC's Mat Best, when he was talking about the Canadian military... he said for a military smaller in comparison to that of the United States, the Canadian Special Forces are absolutely top notch, badass MFers. Disciplined and lethal.
My grandfather was a marine who served in WWII and the Korean war and is currently on his last few days of life. He was born in 1927 and is a few days short of 96 yrs old and by far will always be a great hero/mentor/influence to his large family... the greatest man I ever had the privilege of knowing....
He's the example of what the American fighting spirit is, never quit, never surrender, fix bayonets, scare the crap out of your enemy, and have the best looking mustache of any soldier that ever served. Great video..
I love these videos because they remind me of something my Grandfather who served in Korea said. Growing up, they had men like Eisenhower and Millets, who served as role models to young boys and men who were growing up during this time. Nowadays we don’t have role models like this…men who believe in something greater and doing the right thing because that’s what they need to do. Now all we have are scandalous celebrities and politicians that care more about making a Buck, than doing something actually worthwhile.
I used to hate history class. Until i had an old army sergeant who fought in the Korean war as an instructor. Because he wasn't about dates and other minutia, he was about "why did this war happen?" That's the lesson history is supposed to teach us, why did this happen, not when it happened. Because if you don't know why war happened, you cannot prevent it in the future. One of the best instructors i ever had in school.
I stumbled upon a short of anothers post where they commented on one of T_F_E's videos yesterday ( 7/3/24 ) evening found his channnel subscribed after the second episode enjoyed his videos so much didn't even realize how many I had watched untill I noticed the sun was up took a nap watched a few more went to work had a two hour break so watched two more while I had a bite got home a quarter past 1am and watched this one and I can't think of a better way to have spent our independence day then learning about some of the people who were willing to lay down there very lives to get it and those that followed in there footsteps in order to preserve it! Truely and whole Heartedly we owe them and those still fighting today more than I could possibly put into words other then to say ThankYou! And a big Thank you to The Fat Electrician for bringing us this content but doing it in such a way that makes it so fun and enjoyable to watch
You, SIR, are absolutely a phenomenal story teller! The quickness, the humor, the bottomline content, make for a GREAT " CLIFF NOTES " adventure in our imagination of such a Spectacular WARRIOR, who was the Epitome of a Stellar AMERICAN!! WOW
Correcting our history books is an incredibly noble cause. Good luck to you, sir. You will, no boubt, face resistance. Please, dont ever underestimate the impact that you have had with this simple format. There is no better way to honor our fighting forces than to tell their stories accurately and with the dignity they deserve. You sir, deserve the coveted P.O.B. for binging these legends to life again. Thank You.
Another great soldier with an iconic moustache - Brigadier General Robin Olds, USAF. A triple ace pilot, earned one each in WWII, Korea, and Vietnam. A rock star in the air pilot’s world. And he still takes a back seat to General Millet.
@vincedibona4687 The photo of him exiting his dick depression after another successful mission of kicking ass and taking names is pretty legendary, but Col. Millet is a man amongst men for scoffing at all the advanced technology of modern warfare and bringing it back to a literal knife fight out of spite for his enemy's hubris.
@@CrusaderCrunch With all the pseudo-estrogens in our food and water, we probably can't grow mustaches like that anymore. Just kidding. But seriously, watch what you eat and drink.
Made me cry freedom loving tears with Millet's emotional interview at the end. Outstanding work, the amount of history I've learned from you has far exceeded all the education I've gotten in 40 years. Thank you for being a dyed in the wool American ideal loving, patriotic, perveyor of all things American badass.
I honestly cannot believe I have never heard of this man. Im actually genuinely ashamed by it. Millet was a national treasure in my opinion, not just for what did, but for why he did it. Thats for introducing me to this absolute beast of a soldier.
I served in the same unit in the 80's the the colonel led the charge in. He came and spoke to us, one of the best hours of my life. He was still imposing, impressive and made you want to follow him. And yes the stash was on point and his speech was very inspiring.
And another one! Keep these coming. My kid is learning more about history and warfare from you than any class at school. You get him engaged, and you keep him engaged. Thanks for this!
Drawing out stories like this from the grandparents and relations while you have them in your life can be stunning. They have so much living through different times and those experiences should not be forgotten.... Lest we forget what it took to get here. I do miss the grandparents, parents and uncle's that lived through these troubled times now having the time at 60+ to stop and think where/how we got here and what they did. Cheers sparky......longer is better for stories for sure.
As a history fan I was very happy to have t good fortune to find your blog. I don't know how to thank you enough for bringing this up and sharing it with all of us. Your fans, keep it up as long as you can and watch the site grow.
The Fat Electrician- Plans to do a 3-5 minute video about "Bayonet Hill" The Fat Electrician - Finds out about the Gigachad Lewis Millet and does a 19 minute video about a guy who had massive balls and "FREEDOM!" as his battle cry! Everybody- Thank you for telling us this hero's story! Seriously I appreciate the videos you do, because none of this has been told to the world before! Sure its documented, but no one other than you is actually bringing this history to light, and the majority of people would have never known about any of this! Thank you!
Well said, thank you! Not many will search out and read historical accounts of individual soldiers, sailors and airmen, e.g., Ordinary Courage: The Revolutionary War Adventures of Joseph Plumb Martin.
Absolutely loving all these longer videos man! I know absolutely nothing about production, but I can only imagine the energy it takes to fart these suckers out. Still, I know I'm not the only one who would very happily listen to you go on about various bits of military lore for hours on end! Thanks for the continued education Nick!
another great video.. funny how some of these these videos bring back memories, by just in the way you describe things.. its great though how you highlight and tell the story of people who would never be put in a history book like they deserve.. thankyou for the work you do to give us such great content..
Thank you for this and all the badassery you share with us, not only important preserving history but setting examples of those who make a difference and what it means to be American and taking pride in our country when so many seem to forget or never got that united we stand or divided we fall. Thanks again Brother!
You are without a doubt the best teller of history I have ever heard and I am a lover of history. I watch your stuff as soon as release. As much as I know about history I still learn things from your stories. Thank you so much.
What a great story, Nic! You keep finding / re-discovering all these all-but-forgetten gems of history. The clip at the end of his interview is priceless. Made me tear up a bit. Well done, sir!
I'm really starting to think that your videos should be shown to all middle school history class when they talk about theses subjects. You have some real bangers. Lewis Millet, Joe Medicine Crow, Sergeant Reckless, Dan Daily, Jake "McNasty" McNiece, Cassius Marcellus Clay and John Moses Browning
What a man! America has so many amazing heroes, your videos are so important because they remind us of the pride we should take in this country. We need men like this to lead this country back to greatness.
I got to meet the man and listen to him for a couple hours once. I was part of his old unit and he was there for a ceremony. Absolutely one of the most fascinating and inspiring people I have ever met. It truly was an honor.
i messed up.
Pearl Harbor Dec. 7th

You should talk about that one time when the nazis fought themselves killing 500 of themselves in a navy battle
Both this and Sergeant Reckless would be great shirts!
Yes
“PROPORTIONAAAAAAAAL”
"He didn't fight for America, he fought for what America stood for" is just a fantastic quote
It absolutely is. And it's why I thought I joined many years ago. Alas... idk even what we stand for anymore lol. 🙄🤔🤷♂
@soarabove337 thank you for your service, sir.
So the closest thing to a real life Captain America.
“Even when America didn’t”
Fighting for what America stands for is all we can stand behind now. The politicians and companies can never be trusted.
The worst thing about any of The Fat Electrician's videos is I'm always left wanting more.
Yep🥲

Minute in and I’m gonna make the prediction, this man took more pride in his mustache and bayonets than Marines took pride in being Marines, which is a pretty huge achievement to pull off.
As a Marine, I can confirm this.
He took more pride in being American than some Marines take in being Marines. Semper Fi.
He wore that mustache until the day he died. I can confirm, as he was our Regimental Colonel until 2009 when he finally let Death take him.
As a 80’s Marine I call BS
Marines were meh. It was fun but pride isn't what I would use.
I had the privilege of being part of the color guard for this mans funeral. It was such cool event, Helicopter flyover, 21 gun salute, the works. Definitely something I’ll never forget.

Never stop being war criminals ❤
But u know what they say, it aint a war crime the first time
He should do a piece on Canada's "Camp X".
Oh, and also on the guy who invented the "Combato" fighting technique.

Absolutely!
As a Canadian, thank you for the callout to our military. *offers a toast to Lewis Millet for being such a humble badass*
We do need to go over how ruthless you guys were back in WWII. there's so many stories...
Remember that Canadian's are polite by choice.
I'm looking forward to them reminding their government of that.

There's two things I learned about Canadians. One, don't take their hockey chirps seriously. Two, take their military very seriously. They are absolute savages as war fighters.

Last night I was on the phone with a buddy and somehow we got on the subject of the Gander Newfoundland crash. Small world.
Amen!!
Actually it was his son not his grandson.
Millett actually grew up on a farm in Massachusetts. He was born in Mechanic Falls, Maine, but was raised in South Dartmouth, Massachusetts, by his mother and stepfather. He joined the Massachusetts National Guard in 1938 while still attending Dartmouth High School. (He didn't graduate until 1940.) His classmates knew him well enough that in his yearbook he was voted most likely to be a "soldier of fortune!"
I’m glad I’ve found this gem of a channel before it completely takes over RUclips. This dude is amazing
Been with him since I was still on TikTok. Love his stuff.
💯
Nic is a wordsmith and that makes learning very easy. He ties in all subjects (math, science, and other 💩) involved with the piece of history to explain why it's either straight up gangster 💩, bat💩crazy, OR, so hilarious that you 💩 yourself from laughter.
I've never seen someone tear up talking about freedom, truly an American hero.
Not just freedom. The men and women who selflessly gave their lives FOR that freedom.
A hero indeed.
Most touching thing I've seen in a long time.
Made me tear up too. What a man.
Watching him talk made me tear up
Supporting Freedom, the American Way, and all of that are a powerful incentive that caused many of us to enlist in the conflicts of the last 80 years or so. When you watch a soldier with Louis Millet's (I don't remember his rank when he retired) history and experience, he's remembering all of those years and fellow soldiers from an entirely different perspective. What an amazing example for those who want to carry on that mission. We need them and they're becoming much more difficult to find...
It's sad that I had no idea this man even existed until today. Thank you for bringing heroes like this to the forefront.
He was the base commander of Ft Devins Mass, when I was training for the ASA in 1966 . He had a bayonet on his desk in a scabbard that was stuck in with blood, or so the story goes. The story was that he had won every medal the Army gave except the "Good Conduct Medal"
I know Devins well, I was the fire protection engineer who designed the sprinkler system in the "hospital" (prison) they built there in the 90s
Good conduct is overrated
“That mustache isn’t going to sit on itself.” Poetry. Pure poetry. Carry on.
I almost wrote something about that line, then I read yours..
Carry on.. precision 😂😂😂
@@henrybourgeois2225 ...and 11,48 min in the pilot rescue in a two seater.... gigantic balls.

Man that clip of him talking at the end hit me right in the feels. What a great man. To be so gangster but then so humble and filled with love for his country still, just an awesome dude
Love for yourself isn't worth a damn on the battlefield. Love for something bigger; family, faith, country, is what pulls one through. if you die, you die knowing you did your best and lived up to the ideals. If you make it, you know it was worth it and would do it again.
Same with me. Made me tear up a little
@@chrismaverick9828🇺🇸💪
how come these stories are not known? these are such badass people fighting for actual values
They aren’t known because most textbooks are produced by a few large companies. And most large companies are about globalism, not nationalism. So they teach your politically correct version is stuff. Thereby depriving you of reasons to be proud of your Nation.
A people without heroes has only the aristocracy to look up to
@@victorkreig6089I do know teachers that tried to sprinkle these stories in. The problem is that there's just so many that it's hard to do them all justice without extending the school days.
School essentially tries to give you a broad swath of knowledge, and only once you get to higher education that you start specializing.
Yes these are great people and stories, this kinda history would of kept me more interested in school than learning about Christopher Columbus
3500 Americans died while serving in the Canadian Expeditionary Forces in WW1 before the US entered the war.
There are thousands of heroes most people don't know about. My great uncle died outside Ieper (aka Ypres) in 1916. His body is still there, with tens of thousands of others, near Menin Gate.
Edit: America may not honor them, but EVERY SINGLE NIGHT since 1928, the people of that area do. They hold the ceremony called 'Last Post" at Menin Gate. They've conducted the ceremony over 33,000 times.
Ok, got two competing "thoughts" here, the first is that the line "this mustache isn't going to ride itself" was epic and the second is to say thank you for ending the video with the clip of COL Millett, we need to see things like that more often.... And overall a big thank you for this video!
This man kicked more ass in two wars than most soldiers do in a LIFETIME.
Might wanna add Vietnam War in that.... He was in the CIA that time 😅 doing some covert gangster shit
@@lancegigs9022 Yeah, but I limited it to what has been confirmed in records the public can access.

Hill 180 is located on Osan Air Force Base South Korea. I was stationed there for 2 years and walked that hill every day to get to work and back. Thank you for honoring Lewis Millet with this video!
Same, though only 1 year for me. IYAAYAS ❤
I hope you had a bayonet handy 😅
Is Hill 180 the big hill that goes up to the main gate? If so I stayed in one of the dorms literally at the bottom of that hill when I was stationed there. Right across from the football field. Never knew.
There’s been some recent research on the topic and the actual Bayonet Hill is off base. There are some reports and papers written about the topic.
I was all smiles until that last second of the video where this absolute badass of a man starts tearing up saying the most patriotic thing I've ever heard. What a gem of a video.
I love how you end your videos with interview footage or audio from the person the video is about. Really nice touch. His words at the end absolutely get you in the feels.
I swear your best videos are the unintentional ones. Keep up the good work.
Glad you like them!
like them no sir . We Love them. I thank you for educating me and many others on the great history we as Americans should know but were never taught.@@the_fat_electrician

To further cement this All American badass in his badassery, SLA Marshal described the Battle of Bayonet Hill as the most complete bayonet charge the US army had made since Cold Harbor 1864. 87 years and 2 world wars prior.
The clip at the end got me. Truly a Hero not just for America, but for every single person living in America and anyone who values Freedom.
Thanks for giving us the story of this American hero. We should remember that America had political arguments at home throughout the '30s, '40s, and, 50s. Not that different than today. Even with those politics going on people like Lewis Millet saw that dark forces outside of our borders should be faced head on. Yes, some Americans, even a wealthy car maker, supported the German leadership before WWII. Still, we found a way to come together and prevent the fall of western civilization under the boot of an authoritarian dictatorship.
I was extremely fortunate to meet Col. Millet more than a few times during my service with the US Army. He would visit my battalion (3/27, "Wolfhounds", 7th ID at Ft.Ord) and he would motivate us by sharing his incredible battle stories, and especially his bayonet stories!!
light fighter 4/17
Light fighter 2-32 Inf.
I met him several times myself. A couple of times in HI when assigned to B Co 2/27 Wolfhounds. The most memorable being the regiments 100th anniversary. He was the honorary regimental commander at the time and if you were there for the end of his speech you know why it was so memorable. The first time I ran into him was in 1995 at Ft. Campbell for the 10th anniversary of the Gander crash. Didn't know who he was at the time except for a man with the MOH around his neck remembering his lost son.
There are a few unbelievable people in this world who's tories get lost in time. This man was one of them. Thanks for telling his story.
"....where all the future hot secretaries were..." @ 3:01
That is EXACTLY why I took a typing class my sophomore year in high school way back in the '80s....that's where the chicks were, and the teacher was a first year teacher and a total smokeshow. But it has served me well since, even though my motivation at the time to take the class wasn't to learn to type.....
But did it work out though? Don’t leave us hanging.
Kind of feel like your probably a 50 year old virgin
Ha! Me too! 1982. It's funny how much I've used touch typing on computers since then. Keyboards are getting smaller on laptops, though.
Typing is a solid skill, personally I think it was an evolutionary trait beyond technology, after all finger dexterity is an underappreciated talent.
Being aware than most women are not wearing their correctly sized undergarments and communicating this to a hiring manager got me a cashier position at Victoria's Secret in my 20's. This enabled such fun future anecdotes as paying a friend with a free bra to be my designated driver on one of my birthdays... :D
I had the honor of meeting him several times while stationed in Hawaii with 2-27IN. He came out to my site in Egypt at MFO. He always shared his knowledge and stories and absolutely loved being with soldiers. A great American! Sadly, one of his sons was killed while returning to Ft. Campbell from MFO in the Gander, Newfoundland plane crash.
He shed tears for his son, the room went absolutely silent...we didn't know how to help.
@@McNubbys😢
That was a lousy Christmas that year. Hope your reunited with the boy in paradise, rest in peace soldier
Needs to be a movie about this guy, but no one would believe a man could have so much main character energy to do all that 😂😂
Reminds me of 'To Hell And Back' with Audie Murphy. They actually had to tone things down in the movie because he felt people wouldn't believe some of the things he actually did for real.
Same with Hacksaw Ridge. In real life, Desmond Doss was badly wounded and rolled off the stretcher to continue administering first aid to his comrades. They didn't include that in the ending scene because it was too unbelievable.
@jsb1585 They left that out, but kept in a guy carrying a dismembered torso to use as a bullet shield.
This man loved America more than our entire government currently.
That’s not a high bar…
@@Dallows65 Yeah, that's so low a sheet of paper would struggle to limbo dance under it.
well then congrats, there's room for improvement! go take over a government position
Including present military and police, sadly. WWII vets knew what it meant to protect and defend the constitution. Seeing unabashed Nazis in their midst is heartbreaking.
That's because they love themselves. And you know, they hate God too.
I met Col. Millet, he signed my MOH book, he was very funny and very matter of fact. That moustache was as big as life.
I met him in Osan by chance, we complimented each other on our handle bar moustaches and bought each other a drink.
A man not only who loved his country and the ideals on which it was predicated but was willing to fight for others around the world to have those same freedoms by any means necessary. Great man!
This man is the "True American Hero" I am absolutely ashamed to say that I haven't heard of. Appreciate ya nick for sharing this dudes story of FAFO and badassery.
Not to mention the fact that ge was one of VERY FEW medal of honor recipients that were alive still when they received the medal. That in its self is huge
I don't know why so many people repeat that monstrous falsehood. 91.5% of Medals of Honor have been awarded to living recipients, according to the Congressional Medal of Honor Society.
Pretty sure thats the definition of a great RUclipsr. :) & he is.
My grandfather received his while standing next to Desmond Doss on the WH lawn. They were very much alive. He even went to fight in Korea afterwards…
Our grandpa Hutch fought in WW2, Korea and two tours in Vietnam as
a United States Marine.
Gunnery Sargent and a sniper. He was a humble man and we miss him. He died well into his 90’s. Our youngest son loved to visit him and listen to his stories and wisdom (his great grandson).
Our military deserves so much respect and we need to strengthen it NOW. It’s ridiculous what’s happening right now in our military. Unacceptable.
I'm really digging these deeper dives into the military. Please keep it up
Always a good day when The Fat Electrician drops some military history on us! Thank you for doing your part to spread the stories of these heroes!
Hey man. Many people, like myself, would not not know the story of these men if you didn’t tell them. Keep up the good work. You’re doing a great service to the memory of these heroes. Quackbang out.
Oh, man, the tears, that's an American hero, and that's what my family fought and died for. That's what we would fight for. Much respect

"That moustache isn't going to sit on itself now is it?" Lmao. This is quickly becoming one of my favorite channels. Badass war heroes and war stories are just gnarly. I guess these days, I have to say anyone could like war stories but they just work men into a frenzy. I remember when I was a kid watching First Blood (and other similar stuff) with my dad and little brother and we'd always end up wrestling around (somebody usually got hurt), arm wrestling, having push-up contests, taking the guns out and shit like that lol - just from getting so fired up... My dad's middle name (and my first name) is Randall - and he always calls himself "Rando" lol...
Dude you kick ass! Thank you for your very kind words of praise for the Canadian Armed Forces! 👊🇨🇦
It might be the first time I've seen him anything nice about non amaricans.
@@bobgreen3950 Well, you have to respect the only nation that has rebuffed and successfully invaded America.
Just a shame, a real shame how your government treats your canadian service members
I remember some interview with BRCC's Mat Best, when he was talking about the Canadian military... he said for a military smaller in comparison to that of the United States, the Canadian Special Forces are absolutely top notch, badass MFers. Disciplined and lethal.
The best part of this history lesson is at no time did he feel it was about himself, it was always about freedom. I salute you sir.
My grandfather was a marine who served in WWII and the Korean war and is currently on his last few days of life. He was born in 1927 and is a few days short of 96 yrs old and by far will always be a great hero/mentor/influence to his large family... the greatest man I ever had the privilege of knowing....
@TheFatElectrician_ he just passed this morning actually lots of your videos remind me of him thanks for what you do!
@@scs9839Sorry for your loss your grandpa is an American Hero
I'm so sorry for your loss. My grandfather served in WWII, and their generation truly were "the greatest generation". We are poorer for their passing.
@@Stephanie-we5ep Whereas those who fought at Meuse-Argonne weren't?
He's the example of what the American fighting spirit is, never quit, never surrender, fix bayonets, scare the crap out of your enemy, and have the best looking mustache of any soldier that ever served. Great video..
I love these videos because they remind me of something my Grandfather who served in Korea said. Growing up, they had men like Eisenhower and Millets, who served as role models to young boys and men who were growing up during this time. Nowadays we don’t have role models like this…men who believe in something greater and doing the right thing because that’s what they need to do. Now all we have are scandalous celebrities and politicians that care more about making a Buck, than doing something actually worthwhile.
Said the same to my 10-year old son as we watched it together for the second time. This guy gets it.
100%. American youth look up to the wrong people these days.
I love these stories, and they just keep coming because we have no shortage of badass main characters.
If i had a history teacher like you in school, I might have actually enjoyed and passed the class!
I used to hate history class. Until i had an old army sergeant who fought in the Korean war as an instructor. Because he wasn't about dates and other minutia, he was about "why did this war happen?" That's the lesson history is supposed to teach us, why did this happen, not when it happened. Because if you don't know why war happened, you cannot prevent it in the future.
One of the best instructors i ever had in school.
He came to Schofield barracks back in 89 - 90 , got to shake his hand, absolutely a man’s man. It was my honor to meet him.
What an absolute legend. World needs more people like him. The world would be a better place if there was more people like him.
Unfortunately, there are very few opportunities to attack the enemy with Bayonet charges.
@@helpPSYCHOprobably more than you realize, but the titanic nuts required to do so are extremely limited edition.

Truely and whole Heartedly we owe them and those still fighting today more than I could possibly put into words other then to say ThankYou! And a big Thank you to The Fat Electrician for bringing us this content but doing it in such a way that makes it so fun and enjoyable to watch

Correcting our history books is an incredibly noble cause. Good luck to you, sir.
You will, no boubt, face resistance. Please, dont ever underestimate the impact that you have had with this simple format. There is no better way to honor our fighting forces than to tell their stories accurately and with the dignity they deserve.
You sir, deserve the coveted P.O.B. for binging these legends to life again.
Thank You.
💞 The way you speak makes me feel less hopeless. Stay motivated!
This man is my hero. Then I see the mustache and I wonder why he isn’t the most well-known hero in modern American History.
Another great soldier with an iconic moustache - Brigadier General Robin Olds, USAF. A triple ace pilot, earned one each in WWII, Korea, and Vietnam. A rock star in the air pilot’s world. And he still takes a back seat to General Millet.
*Colonel Millet, pardons.
@vincedibona4687 The photo of him exiting his dick depression after another successful mission of kicking ass and taking names is pretty legendary, but Col. Millet is a man amongst men for scoffing at all the advanced technology of modern warfare and bringing it back to a literal knife fight out of spite for his enemy's hubris.
he's the reason the military doesnt allow full on handlebar mustaches anymore, nobody is allowed to wear a mustache that lethal ever again.
@@CrusaderCrunch With all the pseudo-estrogens in our food and water, we probably can't grow mustaches like that anymore.
Just kidding. But seriously, watch what you eat and drink.
Made me cry freedom loving tears with Millet's emotional interview at the end. Outstanding work, the amount of history I've learned from you has far exceeded all the education I've gotten in 40 years. Thank you for being a dyed in the wool American ideal loving, patriotic, perveyor of all things American badass.
I honestly cannot believe I have never heard of this man. Im actually genuinely ashamed by it. Millet was a national treasure in my opinion, not just for what did, but for why he did it. Thats for introducing me to this absolute beast of a soldier.
I served in the same unit in the 80's the the colonel led the charge in. He came and spoke to us, one of the best hours of my life. He was still imposing, impressive and made you want to follow him. And yes the stash was on point and his speech was very inspiring.
Reminding us that we have a legacy to live up to and generations of amazing men to impress in our moment on the stage is noble. Thank you.
And another one! Keep these coming. My kid is learning more about history and warfare from you than any class at school. You get him engaged, and you keep him engaged. Thanks for this!
Lol is there a censor button we don't know about 😂lot of fun adult words in these videos
@@TRUMP_WAS_RIGHT_ABOUT_EVRYTHNG Sex ed is a thing that needs teaching as well, you know.
Drawing out stories like this from the grandparents and relations while you have them in your life can be stunning. They have so much living through different times and those experiences should not be forgotten.... Lest we forget what it took to get here. I do miss the grandparents, parents and uncle's that lived through these troubled times now having the time at 60+ to stop and think where/how we got here and what they did. Cheers sparky......longer is better for stories for sure.
