Meanwhile the politicians are sleeping well at night
Raking in millions by the year
While playing rounds of golf together and eating/drinking at State dinners.
@@lukee7615millions? Billions
Citizens are charged with changing that situation
But we keep them in office for way too long. They become corrupted because those who pay for play have the chance to identify them and put a price on the table so that we the people get tackled every time with proposals and bills to benefit only those that pay the politicians to protect their assets.
I’ve seen a few interviews with this guy now and what a genuine caring soul. Tears aren’t a sign of weakness but a sign someone truly cares what an amazing human being and wish him nothing but good health.
Being a sniper isn't evidence of care though. So many other military careers to show care. This is from an X military.
Soo strong🙏🏻❣️
@@tensonedmonds8442you’re a bot right
Shawn has such a compassionate presence. It’s strong yet comforting.
Facts bro
And it's amazing because he has been through some of the same exact things smh Our vets literally go through hell on earth
Comforting? Get a woman.
@@joshuachambers485😂😂😂😂
Good 2 see he's still human after that
Poor dude, seems like a super nice guy and I can tell how brokenhearted he is because his friend was dying in front of him, in the middle of a war or battle, seeing him pale and white and then having to carry his body to safety just to lose him in the process. A man can cry as much as anyone else, when I see stuff like this it breaks my heart because it shows that he and no one else wants to see these things happen. Why is there war? Why are we fighting? Why do we have to put him in that position? I don’t understand, and people keep justifying it and continue to go to war and outside of war, outside of the army, we got a lot of the rest of society being negative and insulting and hurting people. Why can we not be better as a people, as the human race, as a species? Aren’t we supposed be highly intelligent organisms and no one can see how much negativity drives the world right now? To those who are kind-hearted, good people. I love you all and I thank you for being kind in a world where many people are negative, selfish, and narcissistic, and I’m sorry for all the people who have been hurt either by seeing war either through a video or first hand in the army. To those who continue to drive to work to ruin with their negativity, and to people who support war and also people to like being selfish, narcissistic, and mean for no reason just because you think it makes you cool, I say this: I hope that one day good people realize how much negativity is really hurting us as a species, how many people have died for mean comments and hurtful actions, all for a person’s prideful behavior… and to those in charge of whether or we fight wars or not, please realize that we do not need to fight! Why can’t we solve problems as humans without anyone dying?? I do not understand and I’ve been very hopeful that we as humans would be better, but year by year it keeps getting worse.
There isn’t one thing I could say…, except HERO.
hero? it was all for nothing....it was all giving to the enemy. all to come back here where the sheriffs now become mexico cops and actualty steal things from u that u purchased with money u earned fighting for everyone. its worse off so nothin was achived but makin enemies...
fighting the wrong people.....the real heros r those that reject the govenments orders..they are not American
Not only was he faced with injuries and deaths of brothers in his arms, but he was literally scared out of his mind. He faced the reality of death head-on and all the complexities that come with it. In the interview, he mentions at different points of this story about how he was questioning the reality of what was going on around him. From some of the things he talks about, it sounds to me like he was scared beyond belief with the fear of losing his life as well as those of his compatriots, that his brain started to fragment and disassociate in order to save what was left of his sanity in order to survive. A literal description of the thousand mile stare. I think he tries to hold on to his composure so much in his interviews and probably in his life as well bc he's afraid of what might happen if he were to let all of that emotional and psychological trauma out. And perhaps he wouldn't be able to put it all back together again.
I remember seeing Nick for the first time years ago on demolition ranch. I always liked him.
I’ve watched atleast 5+ different interviews with this guy and I’m glued to it every time. He’s as genuine as it gets. Have never gotten the impression he’s exaggerating, if anything he usually downplays himself. Ppl wanna hold on to that 50cal comment but the shooting instructors were spreading that around to everyone, and why would anyone assume it was bs?
Every time i see him in any platform he seems so strong and resilient. Its nice and sad to see he struggles too. I like this guy a lot and i think he is a great example of a strong person who did so much for our country.
Im crying with you sir 😢 my tears carry no weight in comparison to yours but the weight of yours is felt! What you fought for is where and what me and mine get to live in! I am praying for your heart mind and soul....may your future be all God intended it to be!
THANK YOU FOR YOUR SERVICE, may it not be in vain!
✝️❤️💯👑🌏🕊️
Some people understand how extreme a vivid memory like this truly is… it can be years and years and when you bring these up it like it happening all over again in front of your eyes. I can only imagine what he feels yet I feel the pain smh Salute to this man and everyone going through it. 🙏🏽🦾 bless
I can't even imagine doing things like this where crazy war fights and missions while people close to you dying. To even be talking about that while completely breaking down is just wild to me
The men you serve with form a bond that at times is stronger than family. It is always great to meet up and talk with them. But I have found it is also difficult to spend time together because it brings up all the bad stuff you went through. However, I'd still stand in front of them when the air is cracking with rounds.
The handrub and body language of that story told more than words could , then coupled with the words is mind blowing 😭😔
This is why I stand and honor the American flag and pledge my allegiance to this country. I think of all the soldiers past and present who fought for that flag and for our freedom. I think of those who gave their lives and those that made it back having gone through the horrors of war that we who’ve never been can’t even begin to comprehend.
Big respect and Big Hugs
This needs to be a movie
I feel your pain brother I have been there for what it's worth you are here for a reason.
Stay strong young man America loves you ❤.
America wouldn’t “love” him if he was a Black man who never served.
As 1 the regular people that your fighting for… Thank you sir, we couldn’t have this day without you having days like that and I hate it but thank you
Someone is always risking their lives While others are being comfortable and cozy. Thank you for what you do and thank you for interviewing this young man
Just thinking of the hospital going out I’m so pissed
A SOLDIER'S CREED
I am an American Soldier.
I am a Warrior and a member of a team.
I serve the people of the United States and live the Army Values.
I will always place the mission first. I will never accept defeat. I will never quit. I will never leave a fallen comrade.
I am disciplined, physically and mentally tough, trained and proficient in my Warrior tasks and drills.
I always maintain my arms, my equipment and myself.
I am an expert and I am a professional.
I stand ready to deploy, engage, and destroy the enemies of the United States of America in close combat.
I am a guardian of freedom and the American way of life.
I am an American Soldier.
IT IS THE SOLDIER
It is the Soldier, not the minister
Who has given us freedom of religion.
It is the Soldier, not the reporter
Who has given us freedom of press.
It is the Soldier, not the poet
Who has given us freedom of speech.
It is the Soldier, not the campus organizer
Who has given us freedom to protest.
It is the Soldier, not the lawyer
Who has given us the right to a fair trial.
It is the Soldier, not the politician
Who has given us the right to vote.
It is the Soldier who salutes the flag,
Who serves beneath the flag,
And whose coffin is draped by the flag,
Who allows the protester to burn the flag.
AN OLD SOLDIER'S PRAYER
I have fought when others feared to serve.
I have gone where others failed to go.
I've lost friends in war and strife,
Who valued Duty more than love of life.
I have shared the comradeship of pain.
I have searched the lands for men and women that we have lost.
I have sons and daughters who served this land of liberty,
Who would fight to see that other stricken lands are free.
I have seen the weak forsake humanity.
I have heard the traitors praise our enemy.
I've seen challenged men and women become even bolder,
I've seen the Duty, Honor, Sacrifice of the Soldier.
Now I understand the meaning of our lives,
The loss of comrades not so very long ago.
So to you who have answered duties siren call,
May God bless you my son, my daughter, may God bless you all.
THE CODE OF CONDUCT
I am an American fighting in the forces that guard my country and our way of life,
I am prepared to give my life in their defense.
I will never surrender of my own free will. If in command, I will never surrender the
members of my command while they still have the means to resist.
If I am captured, I will continue to resist by all means available. I will make every
effort to escape and aid others to escape. I will accept neither parole nor special favors from the enemy.
If I become a prisoner of war, I will keep faith with my fellow prisoners. I will give no information nor take part in any action which might be harmful to my comrades.
If I am senior, I will take command. If not, I will obey the lawful orders of those
appointed over me and will back them up in every way.
Should I become a prisoner of war, I am required to give name, rank,
service number, and date of birth. I will evade answering further questions to the utmost of my ability. I will make no oral or written statements disloyal to my country and its allies.
I will never forget that I am an American fighting for freedom, responsible for my actions, and dedicated to the principles which made my country free.
I will trust in my God and in the United States of America.
NONCOMMISSIONED OFFICER’S (NCO) CREED
No one is more professional than I. I am a noncommissioned officer, a leader of Soldiers. As a noncommissioned officer, I realize that I am a member of a time honored corps, which is known as "The Backbone of the Army". I am proud of the Corps of noncommissioned officers and will at all times conduct myself so as to bring credit upon the Corps, the military service and my country regardless of the situation in which I find myself. I will not use my grade or position to attain pleasure, profit, or personal safety.
Competence is my watchword. My two basic responsibilities will always be uppermost in my mind-accomplishment of my mission and the welfare of my Soldiers. I will strive to remain technically and tactically proficient. I am aware of my role as a noncommissioned officer. I will fulfill my responsibilities inherent in that role. All Soldiers are entitled to outstanding leadership; I will provide that leadership. I know my Soldiers and I will always place their needs above my own. I will communicate consistently with my Soldiers and never leave them uninformed. I will be fair and impartial when recommending both rewards and punishment.
Officers of my unit will have maximum time to accomplish their duties; they will not have to accomplish mine. I will earn their respect and confidence as well as that of my Soldiers. I will be loyal to those with whom I serve; seniors, peers, and subordinates alike. I will exercise initiative by taking appropriate action in the absence of orders. I will not compromise my integrity, nor my moral courage. I will not forget, nor will I allow my comrades to forget that we are professionals, noncommissioned officers, leaders!
THE COMBAT MEDIC PRAYER
Oh, LORD, I ask for your divine
strength to meet the demands of
my profession. Help me to be the
finest Medic, both technically and
tactically.
If I am called to the battlefield, give me the courage to conserve our fighting forces by providing medical care to all who are in need.
If I am called to a mission of peace, give me the strength to lead by caring for
those who need my assistance.
Finally, LORD, help me to take care
of my own spiritual, physical, and
emotional needs. Teach me to trust in your presence and never-failing love.
AMEN
Blessings From Texas 🤠
Man just watching the clips this was a great interview/conversation 💯
war is young men who dont know each other killing each other for old men who do know each other
It's good to talk about the things soldier's went through . It won't hesl anything but it helps make it bearable.
We as veterans, feel it man. Even someone like me that's never deployed, we feel it. It's part of the brotherhood.
Let it out my brother, we're out here putting our life on the line, losing friends, more like brothers to wars that are started byfat old men who never fought for anything, let alone anything right. I pray for all the soldiers and American citizens out there, we are the real heart and fabric of this country, peace and love
we all still human, bro. we all dont wanna see someone we know or care about to die. Its okay bro. I cant imagine going thru that. Im spiritual, imma say a quick prayer.
"May GOD protect you, give you strength, and ease your pain." Amen
Stay strong sir, love your interviews
Thank You and Thanks to all soldiers. Thank you for sharing.
I appreciate both of yours service. Much respect and honor to both of these men
✊🏾❤️🇺🇸
we appreciate everything you've done for us Brotha.. very much so..
Real talk bro, right from the heart right to the feels.
This is what they don't help us deal with, it's hard to find the motivation to keep fighting and killing all while being lied to by your government...I feel for you Homie...Rest Easy Soldier...1❤
I’ve seen several interviews of this dude and he seemed hard af. So seeing him break down in this interview was rough man. This was sad af.
What makes people relate to his grief but not the grief he caused to others in a meaningless war halfway across the globe from his comfort? The countries they f*cked up haven't recovered, with families sleeping on the streets...
This man has sleepless nights yet the guys that make the decisions sleep soundly in their beds.
It clearly is a weight on his soul that tragically he couldn’t save his friend that had saved his life. Very tragic😭
He cries because he knows deep down he was fighting a wrong fight
Pray for this man
Thank you for your service soldier. Cry it out man. Don’t hold that inside of you.
Thank you for you service sir!
Waaaaaah you got the Ripper on? I'm definitly watching this one.
All these guys cry so fucking much. It’s heartbreaking what they have to deal with. All these man made wars and shit. So crazy.
Love and loyalty don’t see no color ‼️💪🏽
This poor guy has seen too much! Prayers to you
I could only imagine the nightmares he has. I hope bro is in good spirits.
That’s sacrifice, love, and honor ❤️🙏🏿
What about the 33 men who he stole their souls ? You don’t think they had people who were also upset just like he is about his friend ?
Please 🙏 Lord, protect these men that protect us. God bless America 🇺🇸
Thank you for sharing, I hope you never have too experience racism at home.🙏🏽💪🏾💯
Why do young men keep signing up to fight these BS wars for these rich politicians?
This why I never want to go to war it’s basically hell
To many war memories that I gotta keep moving from reminiscing on the past. It’s hard but my wife pulled me out
“The top part of his body disintegrated and his legs kept walking 🦿🦿” 😂😂😂😂bro a fkn corn ball
Regardless what side anyone is one it’s always the young men dying and getting traumatized, while the greedy old politicians that start them sleep well fed and cozy in their mansions…
What that feeling actual means and how serious you take it youll never have a bunch of men cry for other men crying like this its different
Damn this hit like a freight train
Nothing wrong with crying Soldier just shows that you care buddy
Crying is actually good for you if you keep it all built up, it will eventually come out aggressively…
They’ve seen things 99% of the world haven’t. They’ve seen things we don’t even want to think about. The cries, the loss of life, the question of “am I doing the right thing?” I couldn’t imagine. At all and they deserve to live like kings in America. But our government hates them and will pay illegals and foreign governments before our veered and and homeless
Shit I’d be more worried about someone who doesn’t show emotions while recalling an event like that!!! Hell yeah it’s normal. It’s healthy and it just shows that you’re human.
only people who dont cry are psychopaths anyway.
Damn man
Watched numerous interviews of this man talking about stuff I couldn't even imagine experiencing. This is the first time I've seen him emotional. All respect bro.
Luckily he is the the usual bro-vet
@@erismana2105what does that mean?
Yes me too. He's always so emotionless apparently. 😢
I think he's been working through a bunch of stuff so probably more able to let it out now.
That's not crying. That's fighting it back. Which is twice as hard
Man that hand rub when you start crying is the only place you could find some comfort.
That’s profound.
Stay well, my friend. May you always have a hand to reach out and grab when times are tough.
Very good observation!
3:16
Never noticed or paid attention to that. You're absolutely correct.
@DrOcKa20 It's a self soothing reaction. Sometimes it's all you can do.
"I never heard anything like that before." Coming from that guy that sent chills down my spine.
Real in the field brother life’s a trip a journey never lose your sense of humor 🫡❤️
SAME
The tone, the way he said, is so matter of fact, adds this silent understanding that this isn't a man that's ever suffered fomo.
And to end the video off too for fuck sakes
@@YK-rs8pmThis is just the short version of a the full thing. I hate yt shorts but I'm here
Imagine the person that literally saved your life dies!! That’s the most heartbreaking feeling ever!❤️🩹RIP Soldier 🙏❤️
I feel bad for Nick, survivors guilt is a real thing…
@@blakemann9911 facts it really is and alot of people don't get it. People keep saying "you have a good life, don't worry about what happened you made it"
But I miss all the folks who couldn't be here with me who didn't make it out the hood, who were good people, who wanted me to succeed because despite the influence I never fell into the streets so they protected me and kept me away and now the guilt sits sometimes that's just how it is for some people
Depends on how you look at it. I saved my uncles life one time. Gave him more time with his kids and wife, gave him more time on this planet to experience this life, dude had no issues throwing my problems in my face. What if I died? He wouldn't think twice lol. The truth is, in the military when you're all you got, that's what you got. You rely on your guys and your guys rely on you. When there is no imminent threat, nobody gives a shit until you die. There is no loyalty or bond anymore. People don't love anymore. We are just worried about ourselves, how we can benefit, and what is going to happen to us. We ask others to sacrifice for us, but are unwilling to sacrifice for them.
Fn Facts
what do you mean? can you explain pls what happen to this guy
When he looked left as he said "passing by" it's like he's still seeing it happen as he's saying it.
I'm 100% sure he sees it, can smell what was in the air, etc. Freaking mind works mysteriously
Because he is reliving it.
Yes, he was seeing it. We all do.
I noticed it got me chills too
We relive these moments man, this time it’s encouraged.
My sisters fiance Sgt. Eric Snell was hit in the head by a sniper round on 6/18/07 in Baghdad. She found out one morning as she was getting ready for work they announced his name on the radio. I will never forget her screaming when she called me that morning. He was such a beautiful man. His mother arranged for my sister and I to spend time alone with him the night before his memorial service. You don't forget the damage a bullet does to the human body. It was him but his face wasn't. Gob bless every soldier in this land. 🤍
So sad. I'm sorry to hear that.. condolences and prayers. Hope she's finding some sort of peace..
I mean this with absolutely zero disrespect. I want to be clear about that. But can I ask, they let you be with his body, like open casket? After a sniper wound to the head that messed up his face? Can you explain that I’m just curious, that sounds so heartbreaking and traumatic for loved ones to see
@@sinverrette9803 thank you 🤍
@@yesimthegoat0385 his mother is one of the kindest women I have ever met. My sister and I flew into town the night before the memorial service. His mom wanted to give my sister time alone with him. My sister wanted to see him. The entry wound was above his left eyebrow and they were able to fix a lot of the damage but obviously not all of it. Like his eyebrow and eyelashes were gone and his features were not the same and you could still tell where the bullet hole was. Trust me it's something you don't forget. He was so beautiful. You can Google his name for his story.
So sorry for your loss. 🙏🏻🛐
It's hard to watch a man like the Reaper cry. I can't imagine going through that. You have my undying respect, admiration, and gratitude sir.
@@Tar-Numendil you know it’s hitting hard and hurts when you don’t realize your eyes are welling up and you start the hand rubbing to try to get some sort of comfort but a lot of times none to be had.
He has done more for this country than what was required of him. He is truly a humble man and he shows his human side alot of the special forces guys don’t because they want to not appear weak. If I could shake this dudes hand I would shake it and wouldn’t even feel like I was worthy to do so.
If the reaper is crying you know it hit him hard
"The reaper" lol
@@marioaguilar9559that’s his nickname he earned it
@marioaguilar9559 Thats what he's called.
@@marioaguilar9559I welcome you to look this man in his eyes in person and say anything.
@@marioaguilar9559 lol u must don’t know
"Thank you for your service" doesn't even come close to the appreciation that we should have for our professional warriors.
Unfortunately those seem to be false words. Our government and people have abandoned our warriors. Everyone either doesn’t want to help because “I don’t want to think about that” or for other reasons. It’s up to us to continue this honor for our warriors
Amen to that
@@JoshDeCoster I feel like a fraud trying to help vets, but I've always had a calling. Any ideas where to start?
I almost started an apprentice program in cybersecurity (think journeyman hvac, plumbing, electrical etc for vets and help them get jobs in corporate America), but it never materialized and got cold reception from business partners when I shared the idea.
@@DeSmith-o4bthanks for even considering such a beautiful service for us veterans. I am medically retired and I do pretty well for myself thanks to my 100% SC pension from the VA life is getting better every day every month every year that passes since my past deployment in 2013. No regrets! Some of the best 9 years of my life 1 BCT 1/32 10th mountain division
@@JoshDeCosterYou get the government you deserve. This is only a reflection of your society. Government doesn’t care about homeless vets and either do you…I watch you walk by homeless drug addicts on the streets everyday. So quit blaming the “government” the goverment is YOU
Nick Irving is a True Hero!
A true warrior, I’ve watched many videos of him speaking of his time at war & the way he articulates things, the pain im his eyes as he describes the deeds he had to commit for this country, you can tell not a day goes by where he doesn’t think of the lives he’s takin & that it haunts him.
That’s a true hero, living a nightmare so that we can live the American Dream!
When I see how far the country has fallen men like him are the first that come to my mind, the pain these men experience watching the nation they watched their friends die in the dirt protecting just falling to shambles has to hurt them beyond belief!
All they sacrificed just to watch a rich man ruin it to become slightly richer, the anger that must bring is unimaginable, not even counting how badly we treat our vets in the first place…
Very well said, also so true.
There are some special people in these comments. Guys talking trash that have never seen combat let alone spent time in uniform.
Yep internet tough guys
Ive seen a few i wanted to say some shit to but they're just gonna report me and get me suspended
Are these OP bot comments? You always see em fighting ghosts like "making fun of this man...." while i go theough 100s of comments and not a single one is what theyre describing lmao
@@H1TM4N916phone gangsters
They're special ed
Dont hold that back. Let it out man. Men go through tough shit. Its ok for us to have moments especially guys like this
How does crying help anything? Just bawling so you can't finish the story doesn't help anyone.
@@Kyle-k4w How arrogant
@@Kyle-k4w you follow Tatsoy I bet 🙄
Are you a combat vet? Or you just play video games?
@@Kyle-k4wyes, it does help. I work with war veterans every week as a therapist. They’re so bottled up emotionally, just to survive, it’s depressing. War is awful.
Bro wow!!!Man you’re talking some real stuff here! I was a 1 bat Ranger back in the day!! Loosing a buddy will mess your world up!! I needed to see this even though so sad! Thank Ranger for sharing and God Speed! There are no easy days!
Keep pushing, and remember, there are easy days, those days are yesterday. We are valued, just as we are silent. We are loved, but only through our silent lenses
Keep your head up brotha.
Only rangers cry like girls
Wishing the best for you and your fellow brother and sisters, Thank You all for your service!
So... "thats the guy who saved my life.." instant chills and tears... im a grown ass man and ive learned in life... thats what raw emotion is. And the realist and most genuine way to feel alive .. is to feel gods greatest emotion.
Couldn’t agree more brother…it hits hard when you realize many things really don’t matter when you hear someone speak of real life
I once worked with an army vet when I was 19, he was talking to another co worker and they talked about counseling. That's when he told the story from his time in the military. He said a buddy of his was in one of the military jeeps when it ran over an IED. He said he pulled him out and he died in his arms. He was always a happy person and was socially awkward from his ptsd. I cried when I lost contact with him when we were suddenly all let go after the day he said to me, "thank you for making me feel welcome." Love ya Steve...
Hearing stories like these really angers me to see our vets out on the street forced to beg for scraps. These men and women have given their all, gave their lives, mental health only to be forgotten ❤. Thank you for your service. We truly appreciate you and all the men and women who fight for our freedom.
It angers so much 😢😭😭😭 and we have some fucking ignorant who don't know shit tells the people who sees all this stuffs what to do and sleep well in their beds 😢😢
Bro it's our fucking kids. How do people not see this, why is not as clear as that?
Heartbreaking. Truly sorry.
I'm sorry you went through that brother.
To say thank you for your service, seems empty at this point. But alot of us are grateful for all you've done.
Yes we are brother, yes we are 🙏💯
It’s NOT empty Bro. It may be the very gesture that keeps someone in the Good Fight of Life/Living!
why? its not ur fault.
GOD puts his toughest battles on his toughest shoulders 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
@@SHGant he signed up. Y u sorry lol?
These men..soldiers..warriors..heroes...we asked so much from them...they put everything into their training to help themselves survive the worst of it. It all amazes me. I pray for each of them to be able to survive the fights over there and the ability to survive the memories of it all once they get home. Bravo! Peace in your hearts. Thank you.
To help each other survive... that's why it huts so much when 1 is lost. You feel like you failed.
We know the names of SEALs who had very questionable careers, but men like this go widely unrecognized.
That is why I love this podcast, it brings to light the names of heros who truly deserve the recognition. 🇺🇸
The Reaper is known to those who count.
You should read his books, there all amazing plus the government and the CIA didn’t add or subtract what he wanted to say. I glad we’re getting to hear more what’s the sniper’s have to say without the government and Hollywood being the ones that are telling a story. Im glad that books are being written and there was a lot of backlash from the government plus interference with bs gaslighting. Now we’re getting to hear more and more from them, talking and writing from the actual warrior. Not having to have a government/CIA looking over it changing what they want to tell. That’s why elites hated the movie BENGAZI in the government and CIA, like this warrior said they don’t want people to know the truth. Of course normal everyday Americans that have to pay in blood and cash for these government wars, loved it.
as I grow older I really do appreciate what these ppl do; I can't imagine what they go through man. I try to help any veteran the best I can around my city.
Just imagine his thoughts when he lays his head down at night to go to sleep…. Feel genuinely bad for this man. Badass or not , everyone has emotions and I’m willing to bet everything his PTSD is insane. Respect to him and his loved ones ( along with his fallen brothers )
Long time coming . Glad this interview is happening
Thank you Sean this has helped so many Vets. Isolation is a killer and your platform brings healing and is the antidote for loneliness depression & suicide. You're doing an incredible service for all the warriors out there because our government has failed to.
I can'timagine living thru the horrors, the tragic losses of war. God Bless our brave military men and women.
This is why war is a last resort. It stains the soul.
I've watched almost every interview this dude has done, and this is the first time I'm seeing him get emotional during telling a war story 😢 I'm like "wow this guy is BUILT DIFFERENT!" but this just made him even more of a man in my eyes 🙌🏽🙏🏽🪖🥾🇺🇸
Real men recognize real
I don’t think men understand how much value they’re able to convey by being able to express emotions like that. Thank you 🙏
✨BEST COMMENT 2024 ✨
Can you explain that too me? Men convey value by being able to express emotions? I’m a bit confused is this a new trend?
@@Messup7654I understood it as the value in men being emotionally vulnerable and expressive is so that other men see that and know it's OK for them to be emotionally expressive and vulnerable. It's healthy to cry, to release your emotions. It's physically harmful to hold it in. I had an ex whose dad told him at 8 or 9 that he cried too much, to stop crying. (If his dad had any clue what he was experiencing in his mom's house, he would have wept too, then raged.) That little boy didn't cry again for nearly 15 years. He was terrified to cry.
(His father? His father self-deleted. Held in his feelings. Drowned them in vodka. Didn't work out for him.)
People talk about what "real men" or "real women" do, but human beings who are mentally and emotionally balanced know when its OK to cry, know when to be strong, know when to listen, know when to share. They might get it wrong but they learn from mistakes and move on. They don't blame the person next to them for not understanding them, being too sensitive, being insensitive, not being able to take a joke. They take accountability for their words and actions, because even our best intentions can be misconstrued or cause someone pain. There isn't a manual to follow, but they can trust their intuition because they trust themselves. There is value in a man seeing that modeled by a man he admires. It raises all of our boats, helps us as a society, when men, when people, feel safer, feel comfortable in their own skin, feel like they can trust each other and themselves.
Is that valuable enough for you?

Some women get wet seeing a man cry. Some weird shit honestly
With your brothers.
Try it around your woman one too many times and see how that works out for you.
Sad reality.
Most skilled powerful people show compassion/tears when it's time to do so. Shows humanity/love. Proven psychologically. Real men, cry.
This is one's only hope ever:
See Romans 10:9-13 and 1 Cor.15:3,4 and Psalm 22:16 & Isaiah chpt.53 (even in the Jewish bible).
After salvation see Matt.10:28 and Mark 12:30,31 auth.kjv bible only.
KJV bible only? That's one of the worst translations out there. The NASB is widely considered the most faithful to the source translation.
@@A_Stereotypical_Heretic you're false. See my above comment.
@@Happy-b7m4x
Not according to me, but scholars say this. For example:
"What errors exist in the King James Bible translation (KJV)? Which verses are not translated correctly? Where do punctuation problems exist?
What we call the Old Testament, in its original language, has incredibly few Bible errors. This is primary because the Levitical priests faithfully and painstakingly copied the text for generations. Unfortunately, many errors can be found in the King James Bible due to its translators using Latin readings that sometimes inaccurately conveyed what was in the original Hebrew text.
Biases and Prejudices
As if that were not enough, still more errors crept in to the KJV Bible because the translators, picked by King James to produce an English version of God's word, "read into" certain texts their own biases, prejudices and long held church doctrines. This inaccurate method of Bible interpretation is known as Eisegesis."
@@A_Stereotypical_Heretic see me my above comments, we can do this all day.
@@Happy-b7m4x i asked a question, you refused to answer because you have no answer. Typical Christian nonsense. Take care

Yes sir, The Reaper
Had a neighbor that unit found and disposed of bombs told me a story of 1 going off not harming him but desingrating his friend behind him, he struggled with what happened and why ill never forget him or the look in his eyes when he told me things. So much pain and sadness in his eyes. I'm forever greatful to you Tyler and everyone else who's sacrificed so much. I hope your wife and children will help you find some amount of peace one day brother.
I read his book really good book to be honest, he talked about his ranger buddy getting shot by a chec sniper. It was really sad.. 😢 sorry my man for your loss
Please what's the name, or title of the Book.
Is it on Amazon?
From Nigeria 🇳🇬
@bvl98 yes it's called the REAPER spec ops sniper, he has a few, way of the REAPER. and like a 3 book series that I've not read yet. Check him out he talks about his friend getting killed by the chech sniper super sad may man..
Super proud of you Nick for sharing your story and shedding light on the mental warfare that soldiers battle on a daily basis. Keep sharing your story cousin!!🤍🤍
I can't wait to see this one!!! Love the content. You always come through with the best interviews.
I had an anxiety attack listening to this..I’ve been through something similar. This is like looking in a mirror emotionally..
Be well, brother. Thank you.
I love how open he is, still struggling to maintain composure but raw and honest. Thank you Sir!
u mean bragging?
@@carlosmoran2504 this is what bragging looks like to you?
@@carlosmoran2504Clown.
Looking at the comments from all the clips of this guy, and a lot of commenters say this guy is lying.
If he is lying: he is one hell of an actor.
If he is telling his truth: May GOD bless his soul.
Perfect guest for this show, can’t wait
People think that just because we are men, we are not supposed to cry, but shit we are not robots we are human
Why do these men come home to such disrespect? It was an honor to listen to this. I don’t think other countries have our particular malcontent towards their servicemen and women. Just know I am not one of them, and I’ll answer my 2am call.
The people who disrespect these men do not matter. That simple.
Sadly this is what has come of our nation they send us to war for their stupid reasons then discard our warriors like trash.
Liberial demorats pushing hat of our nation and it's men and women.
There's many reasons. First and foremost it's the erosion of trust for our government and the unnecessary conflicts they send us to. Civilians are broadsighted and set their sights on the wrong enemy; service members. Second, you have the erosion of patriotism by outside agitators. Yuri Bezmenov warned us.
Not to be political buts it’s the libs same thing happened after Vietnam
Sir, whether you believe it or not, you are a Hero, as well as all your fellow brothers in arms. Some paid a higher price, but you and your brethren who fought side by side and brought your buddies home deserve respect as well. There is no shame in shedding tear's for those you have lost, and the majority of us will never understand what you feel when everything goes quiet. Respect Sir!
