- This product contains the Sixth and final video depicting a U.S. Army Liuentenant
dreaming about upcoming COIN operations in Iraq, 2008. In the first dream, he
makes several key mistakes that lead to mission failure. When he awakens, he
recalls his mistakes, and applies those lessons when he falls asleep and dreams
about same mission. Videos 2-6 chronicle subsequent dreams of the same
mission as the Lt makes and corrects different mistakes. This series of videos
is based on the book, "The Defense Of Jisr Al Doreaa," which was written in the
style of Swinton's "The Defense of Duffer's Drift."
This troop runs so efficiently, and seems well supplied.
In reality, poor Connors would be filling out DA-forms for supplies outside of the TO&E, be short of trip flares, wire, and sandbags. One of the M1114's would be sent out for maintenance, and a MK-19 would be down.
CPT - "Connors; We have no interpreters available, so do the best you can. Any other questions?"
Connors - " Sir, I, uh.... No, sir..."
What would be the correct moves in the same situation without interps and limited/no requested supplies? Thanks
Hm...learn arabic, urdu,.... and various dialects :-) ... before :-)
Worse, Taliban black oped the project and the Americans got blamed. The detachment had to leave because of political pressure.
Daniel Sebastian Rode Yh sure just lemme learn a whole set of dialects in a language I don’t speak before moving out
@@yosh_io See if the local leaders speak english or if you can start a penpal relationship with the local leaders using google translate.
Poor Lt., he is stuck in a time loop.
These were really well made. I'd love to see more made in the style of this series, seeing the progress through each dream was pretty awesome.
This was one of the most informative and enjoyable mini series I have ever had the pleasure of watching a good long while, thank you for documenting this story!
in a*
great work guys, was a joy to watch
Learned some good lessons watching this series
Loved this series. Going to continue combing through your channel, hope you're still coming out with content.
Right im still wishing
On top of this, these were actually entertaining while teaching something.
Very good job!!! I learned a lot from this series.
Great execution, and your presentation was amazing. By far more interesting than the crap they put on tv or movies.
10:04 that guy can turn his neck 360. That's gotta have a tactical advantage!
Bohemia Interactive do be like that sometimes
Pvt. Owl
This was awesome. Very informative and more entertaining than most modern entertainment out there.
Such helpful videos. ill be doing ROTC soon and this channel has done so much for me!
Thank you again!
"I realized i was just landing in Kuwait, and that I am just a LT. I proceeded to unload my gear and go make coffee for my senior officers".
perfect video for ROTC cadets, nice work
I wish there was more! So good!
Great series.
Every CO should mandatory watch this series.
I hope you guys are going to make more of these style videos.
Learned a lot from it!
more vids like this i was really entertained and i learnt allot. goodjob
I wish these were all mandatory prior to deployments back in the day. Unfortunately, each soldier is fighting his own war for his own reason like protecting the guys next to him at all cost, personal glory or do whatever it takes to go home. It can be tough sometimes to see te big picture.
This series is awesome
Awesome series. Makes me want to get back on Battlefield 2 Project Reality :D
It still works great and has an awesome community
Turn it into a damn RTS already!!!!
@Ben White yes
I want a hybrid rts/shooter where you have to analyze a given area and then set up and enforce a COP, run patrols, engage insurgents, etc. That would be vidyagaem heaven for me
I'm currently 16 but I'm going into the marines when I done with school this video is helpful and has some good tips and really entertaining
did you end up signing up?
Dont do it
@NPC #40249 lol this kid joins hes 100% more likely to kill himself.. all our boys do is go over their kill a civy or 2 and then go home and pop em self. I think my advice is decent..
@@dsmith977 where did you get that stastic, The University of Your Ass? Yes because every single veteran kills themselves and that's why there is none around
Very interesting series👍
Amazing! So is your Battle of Kamdesh video!
I want to see more of this
Btw, nice nod to Groundhog Day! Phil Connors living the same day over and over.
Creating lasting stability is the real victory in war
I fucking love this channel
19:00 EVERY gung ho leader needs to understand this
Neat job!
You have this mod, ACU Soldiers ?
Wondering if there are any Iraqis watching yhis, and if so, what do they think.
yasmina farih I’m watching
waiting on dream 7 please thanks
These are fucking awesome from 1 threw 6
U.S. Army All American!
Marines know how!!
More world/story videos.
I sincerely apologize for mentioning this, as it may seem harsh and inappropriate. However, I was already familiar with the cultural aspects which the Lieutenant only learned in the field. This is due to my upbringing and family connections, which differ from most Americans. Though I am a civillian, I have basic understanding and appreciation that the United States armed forces have limited time for cultural training, . It is my understanding that the majority of US military personnel receive social interaction training inferior to what is provided even to US law enforcement personnel! From an emotional standpoint, I am very disappointed -- and in fact, I am enraged -- that the Lieutenant did not receive adequate cultural training. I expected he would not have received enough compared to what I know, but I only know a small amount -- while effectively, Connors was given no advance information about their culture. I find that infuriating.
We must dismantle the corrupt influence of the American petrochemical industry. It is crucial to acknowledge that purchasing oil from the Middle East, knowing that a portion will definitely support terrorism, is either highly unpatriotic or treasonous. Those who can contribute to the green revolution but choose not to due to greed are on the path of malevolence and evil. Furthermore, until US petrochemical workers can transition into other fields, it is essential for the government to provide financial support comparable to their previous earnings in the industry. Otherwise, those workers will justifiably fear and resist the green revolution. Frankly, Satan is using our dependence on oil as part of his plan to annhilate us, and it is working.
The video is using Connors as an example of what NOT to do, so that when soldiers actually arrive, they see his mistakes and do not repeat them. That's the whole point of the story.
@@Hellblade8 More or less, yeah. It's also notable that this is circa *2008.* The most the average American knew about the middle east was that it had oil, people who wore funny clothes, spoke a different language, and a guy named Saddam Hussein who they gave the boot.
2008 America was a uh... A place, for sure.
Why didn't they mention the WMD`s they found?
Finders keepers
Reality check: watch "This Is What Winning Looks Like (Full Length)".....
+Abuse of mainstream media can harm your mind!
Remember that this particular training video is when the soldier has failed five other times and learns from all his mistakes. Obviously not every commander has such foresight, and in the heat of the moment many buckle underneath the strain of maintaining those 16 fundamentals while also remembering protocol and the like. It's a shame that the true product is the sadness that is Afghanistan, but on a brighter note, Afghanistan is quickly improving and the military seems competent enough (in comparison to Iraq's military in shambles due to American political skewing and a pressing situation leading to corruption and inefficiency) showing that while the aforementioned video is very true, at the same time Vice released a newer documentary about how the Afghani government is handling the problems. All in all, no problem is magically solved, it requires constant watchful eyes, such will be the case with Iraq, and hopefully we don't try putting minority Shiites in almost total power, because ISIS is exactly what is the result. Too much pull in the right direction takes you too far over there, and the reactionary reaction is something to fear in all planning.

Afghanistan is quickly improving?????!
Where, in Kunduz?
@@toyboxgaming1267 Sooo...
How about that improving Afghan government?
Missing Fake Joint!
Lol this video pretends like it is always functioning. “Btw, you can’t get any of the supplies you wanted”.
Me.
Wow army dog officer with fu Manchu and his CO hasn’t shaved in couple days. Nice depiction of disciplined soldiers...NOT!
