From One Shot to 36 Marine KIA: The Full Story Behind Task Unit Bruiser Catastrophe | Eric Deming

- Letter from marine XO:
As the Company XO (Executive Officer) for India Company, 3rd Battalion Marines, I deployed as an advanced party to Ramadi in January '06. Our company was stationed at Camp Blue Diamond, and our Battalion Command Operations Center (COC) was Hurricane Point. We established OP’s including Horea, Hawk and others. The battle of Ramadi was underway. We established good working relationships with local civilian leadership figures (sheiks) in the first part of our deployment. We worked to gain their trust and cooperation and had regular meetings.
In the middle of our deployment we were told that US SOF (Special Operations Forces) were operating in our area. We cooperated with Delta and operated with them - they showed complete professionalism and we worked together on securing the Ramadi Hospital. There was another group of SOF in our area - they were SEALs from Task Unit Bruiser. They were extremely unprofessional and consistently broke ROE’s / SOP’s (Rules of Engagement/Standard Operating Procedures) not announcing their presence arriving and/or departing our AO’s (Area of Operation) posing great risk of blue on blue [fratricide/friendly fire] scenarios.
I talked to Task Unit Bruiser’s lieutenant directly about it and was completely disrespected and ignored. Kilo Company held ground near the Government Center. It was an active area and they had OP’s (Observation Post’s) set up to beef up security. The Kilo Company XO warned myself and other leaders at our Command Operations Center that Kilo Company had been in the neighborhood East of the Government Center and witnessed the SEALs kill an elderly man doing yard work - raking rocks - and upon searching the scene and finding him unarmed, the SEALs rolled his body up in a rug and threw it over the wall around his property.
We were informed of this as a warning and told to be ready for the local retaliation. We knew this would have repercussions. Immediately following this we lost a Marine in 3rd Platoon who was shot in the head on what was supposed to be a normal patrol at the time. Direct and indirect fire [IDF] saw a surge, and the intel reporting on our WIA/KIA (Wounded in Action/Killed in Action) confirmed this.
The local sheiks immediately refused to meet with us and told us that more retaliations for the killing of an innocent were coming. All of our crucial relationships we had developed with the local Iraqi civilians in our area were destroyed - and given the enemy that we were fighting - developing relationships was a mission critical task.
We saw an immediate increase in IED’s (Improvised Explosive Devices) and had to change tactics, logistics, and all movements. We could no longer foot patrol our area while the SEALs were in our AO. It became too dangerous. We could only establish and monitor OP’s for ambush and IED setups.
Our translators continued to seek information from the locals and tried to get leadership to meet with us- they confirmed that this was a response/ retaliation to the killing of an innocent elderly man. All of our Company leadership compared intel and tried to put the pieces together for a solution.
We all knew of Task Unit Bruiser - with their signature Punisher skull patches - was causing mayhem in the area. They were gut-shooting women from their firing position of the hospital, killing unarmed Iraqis, and not cooperating with US Forces on the ground to deconflict the battlespace.
It was obvious that they were not only directed to act in the manner which they did, but were also protected by their leadership, because the combined leadership of 3-8 & other local units were reporting Bruiser’s wild and wanton acts of violence to their own chain of command, as they were resulting in Marines getting killed in retribution attacks. But our reports fell on deaf ears.
We lost 36 Marines. The vast majority of those losses were only in the middle months of deployment when Task Unit Bruiser was present.
Years later, after trying desperately to put all this behind me I was asked if I knew who any of those individuals were - I was shown a picture of them. Little did I know that this group that had created so much havoc had become famous. I pointed out their Lieutenant immediately as the one (that I had talked to in order to rectify this problem, and he would not cooperate) I had words with trying to get cooperation from them. That person was Leif Babin.
I had deployed previously in 2004 for to Haiti, and 2005 to Iraq, and worked with SEALs previously. They were outstanding. The unprofessionalism displayed and violations of ROEs I saw from Task Unit Bruiser was startling and extremely concerning especially given the deadly cost to US Forces.

I thought BUDs included a creative writing course so all the SEALs could write books about how awesome they are... 🤣
😄
nah, they got professional ghost writers to write the creative fiction for them. It takes a professional editor to polish these turds
Wtf ever princess
You act like this is some kind of recent phenomenon that only SEALs do. It's definitely not. Veterans have been writing books about their experiences for a very, very long time. SEALs, Green Berets, Delta Force operators, Rangers, and regular old grunts, have all been writing books for a long time. Soldiers have been documenting their experiences for literally thousands of years. There are hundreds and hundreds books written by veterans of WW1 & WW2 alone. There are hundreds more written by Vietnam veterans. This isn't a new thing, nor is it anything that should be shamed or condemned. There are alot of veterans who want to tell their story, and there are alot of people who enjoy reading about it. All that "BUD/s hAs a CrEaTiVe wRiTiNg cOuRsE" stuff is ridiculous. SEALs represent an incredibly small percentage of combat veterans who have written books. It's not a new thing, and it's not a bad thing. Not to mention you think that this clown isn't writing any books? You think that he isn't cashing in on his military career and his experiences? You think he's not trying his best to become rich and famous and known for something, and using his career as a SEAL to lend himself credibility?
@@mattjack3983 Just laugh and move on... its not a major debate topic... Geez

This dude just has all the signs of “I was bullied and hazed my whole enlistment”

Bro! I was thinking the exact same thing! Holy cow Kat Williams was right!
Look at the Diddy situation.
2024 is the year of the truth
@@winstonsmith6204 Absolutely. Hollywood is dead quiet right now, even the politicians.
Dude.... All this guy does is shit on popular people. He is trying to make a name for himself... He is on record slandering Marus Lutrell... This guy is an absolute CLOWN!
Eric if full of crap! Dude was a half ass and now is trying to come in and get money off talking crap about other sof members and one is dead 🤦♂️ dude is a dang coward and there is a reason no one in the sof cares for the guy. Hell I know contractors that don’t even like the guy.
I like that this guy just lets the guest talk.. that's nice to see. Most podcasts are constantly cutting the guest off and changing the subject.. but this guy is just letting the guest talk about what he needs to talk about
This is one of those interviews where where Eric deming needs to talk to Jocko on camera and us as the viewers need to see how this pans out
It would probably be just like Ben Shapiro calling out the dude that "transitioned" into a chick with a Chuck Norris Adam's apple and a deeper voice than Berle Ives.
"You keep that up, you'll be going home in an ambulance."
Jocko is an accessory to murder he dosn't have the courage to a decussion eith Eric Demming because he will be exposed as a murder to get a good kill count. Jocko covered for Chris Kyle. Jocko would say detach. It's the minds superpower...
Live man to man
It will never happen. One or the other won't have the balls to talk man to man
This argument is pointless. Jocko is not well-respected in the SEAL community and he knows it. He's only slightly more well liked than Chris Kyle.
Once I read something a ranger said in a redit forum about the Red Wings op that said something along the lines of "Whenever the US military makes a major mistake and lives are lost, they make a film about it and call people heros".
Always been like that.... Medals aren't handed out for the good days.
MOH and VCs can usually be traced back to monumental cock ups from management
I'm just remembering the Chris Killer film where his fictious character is aiming at a kid stressing he might have to shoot him and than listening to the truth about the real psycho shooting through a kid to snuff some adult guy. Utterly disgusting!!
LMAO!! That's the STUPIDEST THING I've ever heard lol.... Guess what smart guy?! All the military had to do, IS KEEP QUIET LOL, and none of us would ever even know about it.... So no, they didn't make a movie just to "get away with it" basically.... I'm also seriously against witch hunts, or people that don't take the gripe to the person they don't like, but instead they WHINE on social media....
How much of this podcast is true
Somehow, I don't think "Heartbreak Ridge" qualifies for the four SEALs lost in Urgent Fury? Hell, the Marines didn't do any of the shit in that movie anyway. EVERYTHING they showed (IIRC) was 1st Ranger Bn (Medical School Students and Point Salinas) and 82D Abn Div.(Point Salinas and Panama City and blasted heavy metal 24/7 at the Vatican Embassy where Noriega was hiding). Fun Fact: The scene where Mario Van Peebles fixes that phone during the firefight really happened (but the true story is WAAAAAAY better). Let me know if ya want it.

We live in an ironic world 😅
In my opinion, the ones you want fighting your war are not the ones you want dating your daughter.
Psychopath traits are an advantage in that type of outfit. The closest to a full blown psychopath you are, the most you climb the ranks.
As a former PJ attached to 21st STS in Pope Field, I can attest to this. I felt my SOF community was different based on the overarching variables of our job. All types of mentalities and personas can infiltrate the SOF community.
I was raised in inner city Chicago, I have seen operators with that same franework. It does happen! Don't buy into all the book and movie fairytales. It is a different beast out there.
As a whole the communities are great, but the younger guys seem to be on a different wave length. I am one of thise younger guys as well. I am 37 and from 2006 to 2012 I was in AFSOC. It is really heartbreaking at times.
That's pretty cool that you're from Chicago. We're there any other people in SOF you came across that were from here too? You never hear too much about people from this state much less this city who make it to that career path.
My bro worked IMINT at AFSOC, former Army 82nd AB. Said Air Force STS/PJs were amazing. Loved supporting their operations.
I agree with you. The next generation of SOF needs to do some soul searching. I hope they re-embrace the idea of the Quiet Professional and just melt back into the shadows. The world knows entirely too much about what SOF does and how it does it. This has brought out a "clout chaser" dynamic that was not there before.
@@MVK_GS big facts, I was outside a an Air Force base in the southeast that houses a special forces group, the amount of vanity plates that said special forces operator was insane, I thought the whole point was to be hush hush

Chris Kyle lying about Jesse Ventura said quite a bit about the man. And damaged Jessie's reputation just so Kyle could promote his book
Jesse is a closet leftist. And pretty bitter and Narcissistic. Chris Kyle aint no saint. But I wouldnt put anything past what transpired at the bar because of how Jesse Ventura is. Theo Von even said Jesse was just full of himself. And the way Jesse talks all the time makes it seem like the type that would ruffle someones feathers into a fight at the bar. Think what you will with Chris Kyle. But dont think Jesse is any better in terms of being a dooche.
Both clowns.
@@allrequiredfieldsNope. Jesse is NOT a "clown" . He is just eccentric for your misguided info's!!
@@lorenheard2561 Jesse Ventura's Kennedy Assassination hoax video told me all I needed to know ( about Jesse Ventura).
Imagine : Chris Kyle was successfully sued for millions for not hitting Jesse Ventura in the mouth.
I knew a Marine Sniper who was operating in the same area at the same time as Kyle. Years later, I was visiting with my friend one night when a commercial for American Sniper played on the TV. My friend proceeded to tell me that the only way for Kyle could have gotten the kill count he was famous for was:
1. Kyle was lying about his actions.
Or
2. Kyle was shooting a lot of innocent people.
My friend, who I believe is a man of honor, stated he did not know what the truth was, but he did know that the book and subsequent movie had to have been BS.
There is a lot of fiction behind Marcus Lutrells Lone Survivor book too. I was in that AO, and I read some other reports of the incident, and it doea not match up
@@sanders194539 Talked to a SERE specialist. A lot of what happened to Lutrell is classified TS and a need to know This individual wanted to read up on it, probably had access to 10%-20% of what happened to him.
@sanders194539 his book was written for him while he was in Afghanistan on another deployment (possibly the same deployment?) by a ghost writer, gulab(the guy who found him) said kyle had 11 full mags on him when he found him after he fled and has since cut ties w him for "lying" and the footage the taliban recorded showed only 8 insurgents yet the book blames everything on the geneva convention and "liberal media back in the states"
Anybody that serves our country is a good man or woman
@@vladtheimpaler6 I have heard that about the full mags from several sources, that were involved in the rescue.
I wonder what Eric thinks of the whole Eddie Gallagher situation.
I’ve wondered that. Matt Cole, the guy who wrote Code Over Country talked all about his book on the Team House podcast. Talks briefly about the Eddie situation. He says there’s credible evidences that Eddie DID, do it. Eddie’s version is the Navy was just trying to screw him and make him look bad. And that his men were just pissed because he was running them to hard during deployment, so they made all that up to get back at him. I call bullshit.
@@KC-UT4rmAZthere’s an entire book about Gallagher, called Alpha. Talks all about the witness tampering, etc.
Gallagher got away with it because trump told the military to let him go!! Quit trying to bullshit people!!
If you really want some insight into the SEALs and their true culture read the books below: Alpha (Eddie Gallagher = Guilty), Code over Country (multiple war crimes exposed, lies surrounding Red Wing - Neptune Spear - Chris Kyle - lies to downgrade MSgt John Chapman’s MoH -etc.), Victory Point (expanded view of OP Red Wing), and Alone at Dawn (John Chapman & Battle of Takur Ghar).
These are a great critique of the SEALs from their founding to the GWOT generation. Bottomline - look at all the people (former Army SOF, USAF SOF, civilian authors, etc) criticizing/correcting SEAL accounts of 'famous' battles/operations or infamous events; there is no other unit more heavily scrutinized. By all their accounts I tend to not believe the SEAL accounts as truly accurate, and the SEALs are the authors of their own mystique but are by far the ‘most professional’ SOF unit or Tier-1 unit they believe they are.
@@dbohler8640 The Big Navy and JAG corruption has pretty much made it impossible to determine exactly what happened. This is not a one-time event. Look at the Iowa explosion and the BHR fire, where they manufactured a transparent frameup of some low ranking guy to protect the totally incompetent, unprofessional and lazy senor officers.
I wonder, if the dude who killed Chris Kyle (who was a former Marine), was deployed at the same time to Ramadi and witnessed some of the alleged reckless killing….
That's a huge fucking reach.

I was in Ramadi during 2006 and I can confirm some of what is mentioned in that letter from the 3/8 company XO.
Thanks for coming forward and standing up for the truth.
Also: thank you for your service!
I was in 1/8 and went to Ramadi after you guys in 07, I remember some of your guys came over and briefed us on the AO and what went on during your deployment when y'all got back. Glad you made it home bro.
@@wilb6657veterans don't appreciate you
@@ericdeming7748making RUclips comments isn't coming forward
I believe the Marine who was shot in the head was my friend Sgt Josh Frazier who transferred to 3/6 after we got back from Fallujah. Josh was an awesome Marine we served together from SOI to 2/6. He was a combat replacement. Literally was home for 1 month before deploying again. Josh was a hero and lost his life fighting but possibly do to the operating of TF Bruiser. Thank you both for the in depth research on this topic.
The letter was from the do of 3/1. So .. prolly not.
i know frazier he was in Alpha 1/6 in ramadi with me we went in after this unit but yea the seals were there with us and we were not fans
@@jimschlatmy bad the situation sounds like what I was told about Fraziers death.
Oh I’m not throwing any shit on any unit. It just sounded the same. I knew Josh a while and we had some tough deployments together. Either way a good man died not blaming Any one just didn’t have proper info. I had re enlisted and was going to a unit that was going back to Anbar.
That letter was most likely from an officer in 3/8. They were the Marine battalion in Ramadi during that time. I do not believe 3/1 was ever deployed to Ramadi.
The Rumsfeld Doctrine, which led to the exponential “growth” of SOCOM & SF & NSW …. Created the climate that allowed the deterioration of the quality of Men coming into the Teams.
I think the same thing happened in the UK special forces. It's why you get absolute bellends like Ant Middleton in the SBS
100%. We went down hill rapidly in 2007+. In 2016 the Green Berets were destroyed and we haven’t made a single green beret since 2016.

@@douglas_fir 2016; we removed all standards for women. Yes. In 2013 they stated the studies. I was a participant at the command level. They ignored all the data and on 2015 instituted the rules. By 2016 the 1st class without standards officially started.
Excuse me?? Woman & Trans will make SF better. Glad all the cis white males are getting the boot from our community. Inclusion is the strength of our forces in the coming war.
When it came out that a SEAL had killed a Green Beret I knew there were problems with the SEAL teams.
They just need to go on Mike ritland and Shawn Ryan’s podcast and I’m sure they’ll “clear it up” and start selling tshirts and supplements thereafter
Have you heard the story on William Lavigne, Mark Leshikar and Timothy Dumas. On and other shenanigans on Ft Bragg
Army killed lots of their own people on purpose in Nam
@markphelt6395 To your point, there are problems all over. But the fact is that these are very pronounced in the SEAL community. But, I believe that a lot of the good SEALs are trying to right the ship. Many of the toxic SEALs are likely retired or retiring. Heck, you hardly hear much out of MARSOC or the Ranger Regiment, though - I guarantee - they also have their bad apples. But look at it this way: There are just under 2,500 Navy SEALs, but far more of the Army's SOF and yet we keep hearing of these issues with NSW, to the point that the SEAL leadership a couple of years ago had a address it publicly. That tells us all we need to know about their "corporate culture", if you will.
@@MVK_GS yea I hear ya. But I’m speaking on drug trafficking, human trafficking, hard hard drug use, and $3xu@l assault murder and domestic violence and murder. All from tier one group here. And a few from support units this is a little different
It wasn’t a SEAL that Mike Monsur saved in the middle of the street under fire. It was GySgt William Gibson (5th ANGLICO). I was on the deployment. I was sent to there location to pull those ANGLICO teams out of there by our CO. Mike Monsur died from jumping on a grenade for us. There was some good things we did on that deployment but there was a lot of dumb shit we did. I say we as in some (not all of the NSW guys and some of the ANGLICO teams working with that NSW team). Some of the ANGLICO Marines drank the koolaid of the NSW guys. Stone was a warrior but followed the orders he was given. I witness the daylight insertion of teams in Fallujah. Let’s just saw we had to exfil quick because that went to shit once one of the NSW got a grenade tossed at him in the infil.
Monsoor saved a SEAL who was shot, not just GySgt Gibson...he received the Silver Star for pulling the SEAL from the street under heavy gun fire.
@@andrewmpaul Thank you for adding that fact
I was only tracking GySgt Gibson or at least that’s what I remembered from that deployment
He was also the one who told me that one of my Marines died from sniper fire while we was on a op
As far as I remember Mike was a good dude, a warrior that did things right. But either way some of things that was spoken about in this podcasts are true. There was a big difference between that NSW team and the one before them.
Hi, I’m a woman in her 20s and I’m training to become a U.S. Navy SEAL.
What advice would you give for women that want to be SEALs? If you had to go to BUD/S again, how would you prepare differently? What books or workout programs would you recommend?
Most female SEAL candidates struggle with carrying the boats and logs, doing pull ups, having grip strength and completing the “Dirty Name” on the obstacle course. Also, a lot of female SEAL candidates break their legs or develop stress fractures.
A woman made it to day 4 of BUD/S first phase recently but she quit on that day. That’s the farthest a woman has made it. Her BUD/S classmates told me that her class hated her and ran her out from under the boat because she was a boat ducker. Nine women have entered the SEAL pipeline since 2016.

My friend was a medic who saw Monsoor when he came in. I was at Corigedor and my buddy was at the aid station at COP across the street from Rt. Michigan. My buddy and I went to High School together. We both know we were in Iraq together but it wasn’t until we were talking years later that we found out that we were only across the street from each other during deployment. It is crazy how small the world is. Social media can make it smaller. Thanks for what you did. Ramadi was ……Ramadi.
Being regular navy for 7 years prior to the teams speaks volumes. Possessing maturity prior to BUDS is a huge issue. That by itself speaks volumes. I’m by no means an operator and technically I’m just a janitor. But I got to know UDT/SEAL members from the first frogmen. I Saw a shift in the teams starting in the mid 90’s. The comment I made about 7 years in the fleet is common in the other branches. The humble professionals I remember were usually prior fleet/service. Sadly the political ideology of big navy has crept into the teams. This retired SEAL being interviewed is of the caliber that I remember from the 60’s-80’s. Great video, thank you for sharing this.

When Eric said how a former BUDs instructor drowned a student when the instructor himself was not even qualified to drown proof test anybody reminds me of how 1 of my NCOs and how he treated me back in 2015.
I was in Italy in HHC BDE Level in the CUOPS in the S-3 in the 173RD as a RTO.
My section was told to go do pool PT.
My NCO SGT Facklam led the PT session.
He wanted us to dive in the deep end of the indoor pool on Caserma Del Din Gym for bricks.
We did this for a few rounds.
We then tread water for a few minutes with the brick and threw it back down to the bottom for the next guy to grab and then tread water with until everybody had done it at least once.
I saw my opportunity to go down and get the brick next.
As I did my NCO SGT Facklam went for it as well and I beat him to it.
I swam up and began to tread water and then came over SGT Facklam and told me let’s do some survival water training.
He then proceeded to mount on my back as I trusted him as my leader and then put me into a rear naked choke while I can barely manage to tread water with my own body weight which I then did much worse of course after having mounted his 200 Lbs on my back and was choking me while I was gasping for air and swallowing water almost dying and everybody watched him do it to me and said nothing in my defense.
They reported nothing.
I told the leadership and nothing happened.
I told my fellow soldiers whom told other leaders in our WLC class and still nothing happened.
No justice.
I will NEVER again trust anybody with my safety and well being.
I will from now report straight to the highest command without ceasing until justice is served and all those responsible are held accountable.
It is not just the SEAL Teams it is everywhere.
Nowhere is safe.
You Eric are a true hero.
Wasn’t Eddie Gallagher just another Chris Kyle off the rails ?
Did he make you blackout?
I watched an E4 rightfully correct an E6 from doing something that was wrong and was incredibly dangerous and stupid and after admitting the e4 was correct instead of thanking the e4 he walked over wearing his Kevlar helmet and head butted the E4 in the face hard enough to give him a concussion and a broken nose. We all reported the E6 and nothing happened. That was the moment I said fuk the military but I was medically retired before I got the opportunity to tell the COC I wasn’t reenlisting because of how they handled that situation.
The US military has a fetish for pointlessly sadistic training.
@@Dj.MODÆO yes, not many are willing to confront these realities, because holding people accountable is a ‘dirty’ job. And it’s not often politically acceptable unless there’s overwhelming pressure.
I can think of a few stories akin…the military dusts up the crime scenes, if they can.
Not sure if Eric will get a hold of comments here, but I watched a podcast where someone asked Jesse Ventura what would it take to restore his relationship with the seals and he said nothing can be done on that front. I am also grateful to finally hear someone from the seal community defend Jesse as he feels very much betrayed by his brothers. I really hope you can get in touch with him Eric

I don't know about his past, but I'm not going to take some random youtube commenters or random guy on this video's word for it that he is some terrible person. Especially not for idiotic reasons like "yeah I just have this feeling that he's bad." That's called a subjective perception, and it means nothing. Most likely you're just paranoid about people.
Makes ya kind of wonder if Routh, being a Marine himself, had some sort of direct ties to the Marines that were directly affect by the actions of TU Bruiser and possibly more specifically Kyle. I mean sure, he was diagnosed with schizophrenia but it is rather interesting that during his confession, he said, _"I knew if I did not take his soul, he was going to take mine."_ as if he had something on Kyle and suspected that Kyle was going to "silence" him.
Curious.
I'd believe it more if routh hadn't had a long history of behavior that was extremely reckless and violent leading up to what happened.

As an Army vet who served on operations where SEALS did fucked up shit, I second this message. I never had a bad opinion of them until I worked with them in Afghanistan. Still wouldn't trust a seal to this day.
I used to think seals were the best, and now I'm disgusted by them. The whole community is guilty. They keep their mouths shut while the America I served is deceived by their story tellers. Lone survivor is the worst in my opinion. Semper Fidelis!
As a neutral, I’m listening to guys like you ☝️the guys on the ground, the guys who know. I always heard Kyle was a psycho but never heard of seals having such a bad name within the services. Over here, the SAS and SBS are highly regarded even within regiments like the paras or Royal Marines. As a whole, however, these institutions do attract psychopaths alongside some of the guys who have the very best intentions/standards of integrity. Personally, I’m Scottish and was always dissuaded by my grandfather from joining what he called ‘an Englishman’s army’.

If you do a lot of us would be interested to hear what you know about Chris Kyle. The stolen valor in his book, the claims of sniping from the Superdome after Katrina are bad enough (and outside of your purview), but the stories about Kyle shooting civilians to run up his kill count -- including in the article two years back in The Intercept on issues with Seal Team 6 specifically, but Seals generally, and then expanded on in "Code Over Country"-- are extremely disturbing.

The only time I had to work with SEAL’s was early on in Bosnia in the mid 90’s we had a joke in 10th Group the SEAL stood for Sleep Eat And Lift Weights. This was during the counter sniper operations in and around Sarajevo. We could hardly ever get them to go out on missions. Then one of them didn’t clear his Sig pistol prior to starting to clean it and shot one of our guys in the chest. Luckily one of our medics was right there and saved him. I don’t think anything ever happened to that SEAL. The shipped the whole team out and they were not replaced. They were completely unprofessional and I was glad I never had to deal with them again after that. I’m sure that not all the teams were like that but that was my experience with the SEAL teams.
I remember that story. The D that saved him was the Sr D on my team in Stuttgart.

Each squad had a saw gunner my brother was the saw gunner. I think this was due to him being my close friend but his squad leader took his bolt leaving him incapable of even defending himself or us his fellow soldiers in a TIC. We even came under attack once and we tried like hell for them to give him his bolt back. Fortunately we survived but I think about to this day imagine if things did get worse and he was found dead without his bolt. Trully moronic idiots who get into leadership positions usually from kissing the right persons ass. These are the kinds of things anyone considering joining need to take into account before you sign up.

@@Anonymous18817I mean, if you’d take advice from a Ranger, for selections, high reps of calisthenics and shit tons of cardio. Additionally, probably a heavy hike maybe 2-3x a week. Since it’s SEAL training, you should probably be swimming just as much if not more. It’s not… a lot of complicated stuff, just. A lot.
Simplicity can be difficult. All you have to do is keep going. Considering your limitations (no judgement, that’s just the case,) you’re gonna have a long way to go. I wish you luck.
Here’s a list of movements that I think helped me:
Squat
Deadlift
Lunges (replicates walking up a mountain, do lots of these)
Push ups and lots of variations of push ups (you have to. It’s the nature of SOF, push ups are on all of your tests)
Sit ups (same Idea, all your tests)
Pull ups (you mentioned trouble with these, try using a band to support yourself and also a Lat pull down machine)
Overhead press (logs/boats)
High reps in all of this, then either run/swim or hike, pretty much every day. Start where you need to, not where you think you should be. Work your way up and do more over time. If you need to, spend years doing this before you go.

Chris Kyle's story about knocking out Jesse Ventura at Danny's Bar is total Bullsh*t. An ex-governor getting knocked out in a bar would raise so much attention, it would be impossible to cover up. Chris Kyle would have been immediately separated from the Military.
The story about Chris Kyle supposedly killing two car jackers in Texas is stupid too. Just the alegation of cops covering up his shooting would initiate a federal investigation into police corruption.

This may be “he said, she said” but I am in the Marine Corps. I was told by my XO, who was somehow in the periphery of the “Lone survivor” story, that the entire operation was a horrible error. He stated that the Army SOF passed up that mission because it wasn’t feasible and would likely end in disaster. He then told me SEALs took the mission because of what amounted to as “seal chest beating and arrogance”. Look what happened….He then told me that the army special ops guys were always very professional, while seals were not. I have actually heard that same sentiment over the years from Marines worked with army SOF and Seals.

The Seal reputation for being cocky, loud mouthed, unpredictable, undisciplined, unnecessary bunch is well know in the military. I spent 24 years in (15 as EOD) and everyone I have ever known hates working with them.
Funny you say that. My son was dead set on being a seal. I had a long talk with him about that community. He went EOD instead. He just got done with a several month hitch with an NSW platoon that deployed. He said the workup was a nightmare. He made ONE good friend in the platoon and said he hated the rest of them.
Funny cuz Navy EOD is basically just like them 🤣
So this looks like a political smear. You should know seals are the bottom of the pecking order. Army/USMC runs everything. They work for them. We’ve seen marine 05s remove seal platoons from the battle space. Even 0-4s initiated it. So my first question is. Why did they not fire them? I’ve seen multiple units get removed from the AO or battle space completely. over speculation that turned out the guys were 90miles away in the other direction so they clearly didn’t do the infraction. . So it’s very questionable being this guy could’ve got them kicked out immediately. Any army/USMC officer could’ve initiated it. So now I’m asking why did they allow it? Did they like seeing the handy work? It’s very strange.

Not only is there a lot of money involved with these SOF influencers but these “influencers” are also recruiting tools for their respective units. That is why you saw huge pushback from Brent Tuckers truths. You also have the fan bois who dont want to hear the truth.

I can't stand Jocko. I know some younger people that idolize him. His leadership advice isn't novel. I don't know what his rank was in the Navy, but I think his nickname should be Captain Obvious.
The most interesting part of this interview to myself was calling out the two “Dead” SEALs that “Drowned” during a ship boarding. I’m aware how dangerous this can be but the US has Coast Guard units that conduct these same exercises. I also realize mistakes and chaos can occur. All that said, the most recent SEAL “deaths” are strange…..
Yes when I heard about how they died it shocked me did they not have the right floatation devices on and sank to the bottom of the ocean wth come on where is the training. It's very sad.
Def some suspect deaths. But I would like to add that people are killed all the time in accidents, at least what I saw in the Army 2002-2011. I'll use the Vietnam war as an example. Over 58,000 soldiers and Marines were killed. But only 40,000 were killed by the enemy. 18,000 died in accidents and freak occurrences. About 800 to 1,800 were murdered by other US military personnel.

@@DeanSchumacherthe Army/MIC absolutely tried covering up Tillman's death as a friendly fire incident.
I highly recommend watching the interview with a Ranger (blonde short haired dude) who was there the night Tillman got killed on the Urban Valor channel. The Ranger is extremely forthcoming with all the horrible decisions made my leadership/command that directly led to Tillman's death.
This all sounds like heresay and a gross over simplified version of rumors and not detailed no proof just bitching complaining and speculating. Name calling. This old dude is not providing specifics or proof or explaining anything. Hes just casting shade. "I think he went out one time and i think something shady happened" "theyre lying about wverything" "i think"
I don’t know why, I can’t explain it. But Jocko has always given me the fake/exaggeration persona/impression. And I’ve always thought he doesn’t come up with anything new. He just regurgitates shit that’s been around for a 100 years, he just has the look and Seal title, so people listen.

@yourakunt4909 why has jocko had the same head size since 1990? I'm not saying I disagree but the man had a forehead you could see through the Forest even with a full head of hair.
I am a Marine. Before this makes me angry I really want to know it’s true. I am not disputing it, but would appreciate some evidence. Thanks you for trying to clean up your teams. It gets so old seeing so many SEALs doing the opposite of being a quiet professional. For as cocky as Marines are with each other… all the units I have been in including STA we pride ourselves in being just that. Quiet and professional.
Voice of reason. Thank you for demanding evidence. It is not true and this man knows it
You should look up the Intercept article titled "The Crimes of SEAL Team 6." It does not talk about Task Force Bruiser, because they weren't Devgru as noted in this video, but it corroborates the facts that the current leadership of the SEALs is more concerned with protecting their image than punishing SEALs who commit war crimes, and it also talks negatively of Tim Syzmanski, who is criticized in this video.

You ain't the only one. I've had the same thoughts. Every single human being does that, it's just a matter of "to what extent?".

The author of the letter died right after. He clearly states that in the video.
Maybe that’s the reason Harwood chose the JtF2 ( Canada 🇨🇦)??
JTF 2 worked extensively with the U.S. 3rd Special Forces Group; one of their first missions in Afghanistan was what Harward described as "the first Coalition direct action mission since the Second World War." The joint operation with a team of Green Berets targeting a Taliban command node almost ended in disaster when a Chinook carrying JTF 2 operators was forced to make a hard landing near the target site.. While serving with Task Force K-Bar, Harward also stated that the JTF 2 team under his command was his first choice for any direct action.JTF 2 was based at the time in Kandahar Air Field
What’s also baffling to me is that Szymanski made Admiral. I can’t even count how many of these interviews I’ve listened to, that give examples/details of Szymanski’s shenanigans and cover-ups.

I always knew that Jocko is full of crap. I think someone needs to go back and investigate some of these alleged murders, just as the Australians have done.
The SEALs and SASR seem to have a similar cowboy culture.
Letting bad apples run rampant and weak officers who cant clean up house.
In DEVGRU unlike Delta - Officers didnt have to pass Selection to serve in DEVGRU. So many officers never had the respect of their men - who saw them as outsiders and guests instead of leaders
@@vitigaymer1053yeah SASR and SEALs spent a lot of time together doing joint training, long before 9/11.
Seals were never rhe quite professionals, on med float seals forgot NVGs and locked the ship down for 2 days until they call back to damneck ,assholes, and they shut down a live fire range because they shoot one another , fuck ups
LOL!
DEV also called in CAS on Afghan Commandos who were working with other US Army personnel, no consequences. They didn't even do Adjacent Unit Coordinations with partner forces in the AOR. I guess AUCs are stupid Army things SEALs should be exempt from.

Anyone else catch the part in the letter where task unit bruiser was entering and exiting areas of operation without notice, causing issues of friendly fire...didnt Jocko give a Ted talk about 'ownership' and a friendly fire incident...now the truth comes out.
Things like the TED talks (and books, and movies, and podcasts, etc etc) is why this stuff is finally getting discussed. If these guys had just clammed up instead of riding the cash bandwagon nobody would know. My takeaway from all this stuff is, being a Seal is incredibly difficult and having integrity even more so.
Man I read lone survivor on my way down range and certain things just felt funny as I read but I thought who am I to know being just regular Joe. This shit here makes a lot more sense. man what the actual fuck.
Those of us with Recon backgrounds knew right out of the gate the whole thing stank.
Once we got the SOCCENT AAR on it, all suspicions were confirmed and worse. The tough book compromise and Axelson being left to fend for himself for 8 days, as well as the known presence of SA-7s near the area are damning.

That warrior made it and waited days till he bleed out. It’s just all sort’s of fucked.
I worked with many SEALs over my near 20 years in SF, I met a lot of really good individuals however the organization has been flawed for a very long time. I heard many times from the SEALs I respected that once the UDT/VN guys were gone the teams really suffered. There are many reasons this situation exists but a big part is that the SEALs draw from a pool of candidates who have no tactical background unlike say the Army or Marines or even to a lesser degree the AF. The point here is that a SEALs candidate has to completely develop while going through BUDS and then on a team into an operator. He has to learn many things that his counterparts in the other services come into SOF already aware of. This creates issues as young SEALs don't want to learn "the basics" as they see them as archaic or "old school" yet they are vital to surviving combat. Another big issue is that because the SEALs are such a small (but expensive) part of the Navy, there is a very real tendency for its leadership to cover up and sugar coat issues and problems because big Navy leadership has little time for the type of heat SEAL problems can bring. In other words, big Navy is happy to end a lot of careers very fast when an issue develops without looking into the actual problem because there is a very real animosity between big Navy and the SEAL community.
I will say that my hat is off to Eric, he has titanium balls to come out against these self proclaimed "legends". I have heard repeatedly about the shit Kyle did from Recon Marines who were on the ground with him, one flat out called him a Murderer. I heard all about the lone survivor BS from the Recce plt from 2/75 who were the guys who had to dig out the dead SEALs and recovered Latrell. Eric is absolutely right, if they do not unfuck this pretty soon the Navy is going to find a way to shit can them or reduce them dramatically.
I've suspected that once the old school passed into history things were going to go south. Same in government. Unfortunately these present times have proven us both correct.
Seals, and SF are a dead breed; not dying, dead. They have proven to be of no use in modern warfare in the current geo-political climate. SF and SEALs are unnecessary and not useful.
I would cut the force by 90% send them all the regular forces. Keep the top 10% to keep the lights on and train in case we do ever need them for future fights.
But SOF is worthless in America.
Delta have operators. Seals do not. Delta does multiple roles. Civilian military ect. This is why they are operator.
@@josephm3615 that is a dumb statement.
Let's be honest the Navy is the biggest joke in our armed forces and the Seals are the only thing that give them look legitimate at all. So then discrediting the Seals takes away the only legitimate part of the Navy
Between this podcast and the Anti-Hero podcast, these stories are like finding out Santa Clause isn’t real (spoiler alert) as a child. I want to believe they aren’t true because I’ve got a lot of respect for Jocko and Marcus. I really hope all the truth does come out because you know there are always multiple sides of every story. Keep up the good work brother.
Those of us who worked and deployed with SEALs dating way back already knew the myth was BS. There are a lot of good dudes, but the culture within NSW has always had something off.
They pride themselves in breaking the rules, which can get away from you really quick when it comes to adjacent unit coordinations, basic TTPs, comms, ROE, Laws of Land Warfare, accountability of men weapons and equipment, exploitation of access to operational and procurement funds, outdated by valuable equipment not on property books, etc.
They’re like pirates when it comes to that stuff and wear that with a badge of honor.
😂 you took the words right out of my mouth
Remember though, two sides to every story and the Jocko talk is extremely broad stroked.
If they would just go quietly and professionally, but they profit.
Santa is at least based on a true character 😮
If true, Jocko is the greatest scammer since Lance Armstrong. I'd like to hear more guys stories before I cast judgement.
Say what you want about lance, his scam didn't involve bullets and sand.
Did Lance really scam anyone? Everyone with a brain knew him and all top athletes use drugs.
Yeah i think jockos solid. I dont buy this.
If this is all true. Then an investigation should be launched and if that evidence is proved then Jocko should be arrested for war crimes.
Great interview. This is long overdue and I'm happy that this SEAL has shed some light on what Task Force Bruiser is trying to hide and make money off of the dead......

This is ridicuous! When they were compromised by those two kids they executed them,,,BUT were seen!!! Thats how that whole mission went haywire! They were on the run for their lives after they killed those kids... thats the only thing that makes sense.... Letting them go so you can run away up a mountian with no comms and no extract is pure FANTASY! If anything, they would have taken the kids with them and let them go once the extract arrived...

You are correct but unfortunately this is always he said she said situations in the military when you're in a specific task force from a different branch or same branch but different task force everyone has a goal and their own agenda I think all this mess doesn't fall on bruiser but who gave the orders to bruiser to do what they did the higher ups wanted them to make a mess and cause havock that was their mission but in doing so caused waves that affected others outside the task force and sometimes that's just the way it is I don't believe there is a right or wrong they were all out their doing a job

That's not completely unreasonable, but there has been a clash between guys who are cashing in and guys who consider it part of their duty to keep things quiet that is only now coming to boil. This is a function of what a book, movie and public speaking machine the Seals are. These discussions are going to get WAY bigger over the next couple of years.
