Running into these boys in theater, it’s like meeting your real life superheroes in person. Always professional, always respectful, and they always took the opportunity to impart a piece of advice that could literally save lives. Now a lot of the Seal team guys were different. Cocky, flamboyant, very Hollywood. Delta boys were clock and dagger. Regular young troops like myself felt an aura of invincibility to be in their presence. Can’t thank them enough.
I went to the Q course with Jeff, be was an absolute beast and solid guy. I remember on Friday's in language school his wife would drive him to class and he would have a camel back and 2liter of mountain dew. He filled it up at the end of class and would run home. I cant recall, but belived he lived 20 or 30miles from Bragg. Ultramarathoner. He was an absolute beast!
@TacShooter sugar. Ultra marathon athletes need sugar. My wife ran a 100miler two weeks ago and the food on the trail was like a college party. They need fuel. The nutrition to prior to the race is one thing but the event itself, your gonna need some sugar and carbs
using simple sugars is not what you should do. You need complex carbs for slow release, simple sugars gives you peaks and troughs (sudden bursts of enemy followed by burn out). The issue is, a lot of people can't hold solid foods down mid training hence why isotonic are popular. Caffeine is similar, So have no problems with it. I personally get stomach cramps from caffein mid training but solid foods are fine.
Holy crap - this brings back memories. USMC infantry unit training at a combat town on Pendleton sometime in the late 80’s and we get called on the radio to clear out because a SEAL team has dibs for like an hour. We pull back and on the dot, three helos come driving hard in at super low altitude. One flares above one of the buildings as the other two agressively circle in opposite directions in a close perimeter providing cover. As soon as the help above the building pulls level after its flare brake, speed ropes drop down and guys are flying down to that building and making their way down clearing the building. It was IMPRESSiVE. We sat there mouths agape and then had to go back to training like the low speed grunts we were after watching these guys come through like high speed, low drag, superhero’s.
My friend was a sniper in the Army's SRT Unit for the military police. He said that Delta Force came through his base once when he was stationed on Hawaii. He said he's never seen anyone like these guys. He said with each bullet they shot it was going through the same hole.
I was a MP, enlisted in 🇵🇦 Empire Range 1990s & encountered a small group of guys using a BBQ drinking beers 😦 on a Army training range. I saw they had a US Navy cargo truck & on 1 side, a pile of LAWs & what looked like AT4 rockets. The group was casual & in beach, summer type clothes 🕶. All had beards, long hair, very fit-muscles 💪🏻. They waved & were polite but I looked around & said hmmmm, I think these guys are ■■■■ . I'm going split!
@RyTrapp0 Another true 🇵🇦 1990s SOF story; Fort Clayton RP. A 🚁 flew down near the front & out came a ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Army SF general. 🫡 I jumped out of my sedan turned on my 🚔 . The SF general greeted his SOUTHCOM officers, saw me & smiled. He then returned my salute. ✔️
@@DavidLLambertmobiletalking about the great shape these guys are in reminds me of a guy telling me that he didn’t know who they were at the time, but a group of guys showed up on base who were just built different. He said, they seemed like a higher level of human being as far as size is concerned lol but were as nice as can be and acted just like regular dudes. It wasn’t until well after they were gone that he found out they were Delta.
This is very consistent with all my experiences with Unit guys. The absolute best at what they do with a sense of awe about them, yet the most humble dudes you'll ever meet.
I ran into a seal team in Iraq in 2007, marine here. I was kind of in awe of them too. lol. They were all so tall and just massive and had the older deserts on.
Back in the 80s, when l was a young soldier, l was lucky enough to do an exercise with the SAS. Super cool guys, gave me a ton of really good tips on how to be a better soldier. It was a great week. At the end of the week, they asked me if l was interested in applying for 'selection'. I knew l didn't have what it took to do it, so l didn't, but those lessons have lasted me a lifetime.
LMAO😂👍 I was a line medic in the 82nd, and I remember jumping into Laurinburg DZ which was an old airstrip that had a commercial aircraft (I think 747). They had us there to assist the Golden Knights tryouts, “trouts” just incase of any injuries or emergencies. At some point during the tryouts, a bunch of Harley bikers rolled up along with a Ryder moving truck (the Ryder name was gone) to the aircraft. These biker guys opened the back of the Ryder truck and that thing had all types of weapons. Anyhow, long story short, they were CAG operators doing some plane boarding operations, and shot some shit up with a variety of weapons. I was trying to be discreet watching them through some binos, loving every minute of it, when the NCOIC of the GK tryouts said, ”thats Delta and I’m pretty sure they are watching you watch them😂 I sure enjoyed my 22yrs; best job ever.😎👍
in Somalia in 1993 two Delta snipers held off almost 200 rebels to save the life of Mike Durant, a downed Blackhawk Pilot. Gary Gordon and Randy Shugart showed real stones until both were killed. Two of our finest were lost and were awarded the Medal of Honor. RIP.
First time I saw Delta, 1981 Ft Stewart Ga, sitting on the tarmac at Wright field, there was an old Pan Am airliner sitting in the open, My company was tasked to form a perimeter around the airfield, just before dark two blacked out Huey's flew in and landed on each end of the plane, 6 guys dressed in black clothing, ran out of the choppers , they ran up to the plane and threw ladders against it's side, they then blew the doors off the plane , ran inside then came out carrying dummies, they jump back into the choppers and flew away, then some trucks rolled in and took us back to HAAF in Savannah, our CO told us those guys were Delta Force, all us young Rangers said at once WTF is Delta Force.
SFOD-D Panama '91-'93 We shared an arms room with 7th SF Group ,. (Atlantic Side) during the Escobar chase you saw all about on Narcos series on Netflix. You'd see the D-Boys show up wearing original Adidas GSG-9 boots ,. Back then I was always in awe of them ,. Goodtimes.
Funny, but check out the latest scores from the all comers International Sniper Challenge at Ft Moore. 75th Rgt,-7,139 continuous deployment days during GWOT. "I will never fail my comrades" Sua Sponte B/2/75th Rgt
The Marines used to have a range off of a road next to a SEAL base. So across the road they made a range and it was in line with the Marines range. The Marines were like oohh cool you guys are making your own range?? No!! we're gonna shut down the road with the closures and then shoot at your targets from waaaay over there lol
Hey Brother! I was the one they called "Beast" in the Scout/Sniper platoon in HHC. And I was Haney and the Little Birds driver. It's been a long time now, and I guess we're all getting older and can't quite remember everyone from our earlier days... But "Bailey" definitely rings a bell.
Haney wrote a good book about SOF. He was a producer on the CBS drama: The Unit. I remember how in the series, SFOD-1 members have their finger prints removed from all CONUS-DoD, DoJ databases 🗃. The late Richard NMI Marcinko said something like that about SEAL 6, CONUS training. Police had a ATF toll free number they could use.
@@gman21266 I remember a lot of guys. Faller and Middleton went to you guys from my platoon. One of your snipers was attached to us on the first night in overwatch. I was tending to a radio issue on the back side of the hill when an AT guy lit off a 90mm with me in the backblast. As a result I never saw the guy with the revolver creeping up on me. Still owe that sniper a beer over that.
That's why I got out. I wanted to go WOFT from the Navy, but I failed my eye exam. No helo flying for me. So here I am now. Married to a very sick woman who has a chronic and worsening condition, no hope of a cure, Nursing home bound soon enough, and broke as fux trying to pay sittiers to care for her til i make retirement. Which was this past october, so I may never retire. Spent a fortune caring for her these last two years. But i'm alive and haven't become disabled yet, nor have I lost my mind.
I feel you. I couldn't even try to be a fighter pilot, or a SEAL, in the Navy due to red/green color blindness, which I found out I had at 17, during the MEPS physical.
Ditto...I went through the entire physical at Great Lakes in 1972 hoping eventually to become a carrier pilot. Found out I was red-green colorblind at the vision exam...was told at the end of the day don't call us, we'll call you...
@@tratko3150 I went through it in December 2000. I asked to retake the test, since I didn't know at the time how/why I had failed the 1st one. My score on the 2nd was 3/27. Yay..
Yeah…I worked Pave Low helicopters back in the 80s…we had a bunch of those guys load into our best bird and just left…no talking…no explanation…nothing…just some bad ass shtt.
When I was stationed at Ft. Bragg, with the 82nd, there was a small px on Smoke Bomb Hill. The px was open 24/7, and you could buy beer anytime. My friends and I came from a club in Fayetteville. While at the px suddenly, we heard the sounds of a Blackhawk. The lights went out boom, boom, boom three flashbangs went off. We were on the ground bleeding from our ears. We saw figures in the dark. The glow of their nvgs on their faces. M-4s sweeping left and right. Their faces were totally hidden. One guy steps over my buddys body. You could hear the door of a cooler open and close. Then suddenly everything was quiet. You could hear a pin drop or a beer can open. As we slowly regained our senses, my buddy asked the clerk what had happened? She just laughed and said, " That was the Delta guys doing a beer run." After that, all I could think of was becoming one of them. One night, I was waiting at the Smoke Bomb Hill px. Suddenly, there it was, the Bkackhawk with the D boys in it. I waited. As they came out moving tactically, I grabbed one. As he flipped me to the ground, about to put a bullet in my eye, I whispered, " I want to be like you." That night, I became one of them. They took me in, fed me, and clothed me. Showed me how to grow a beard. They brought out skills I never knew I had. I was honed into a top-notch Delta operator and was finally allowed to take part in a beer run. I will never forget the day I became one of the elite. This is a true story, I swear. Or at least more believable than the b/s ones that pogues want us to believe as true.
He is definitely a humble man. But people need to not forget who rangers are. Delta and seals etc do those specialized precision missions . The rangers are like Marines on steroids and cocaine. Those guys want to go to war. Send a brigade of rangers to Ukraine and shit will change. I was never that type of gung-ho but when you saw those guys it was f****** impressive. I believe ranger is the pathway to special forces. You know the guys who don't write books and brag.. they just go in quietly and f****** entire countries up
I of course understand that the selection for Delta has to be bottle necked to only get the best of the best through but I feel like the ball is dropped with guys like this. Who knows if he would have made it, but I'm pretty confident his eye issue wouldn't have even been a speed bumb in his training.
I was laughing at the interviewee's shock. Yes, the guys are older and the dress is functional and independently selected. A class is set up. It is supposed to be a conventional shooting class with rifles. The attendees are not active duty young studs. The instructor wants to throw a curve ball and asks us to do a disciplined withdrawal. No problem and I have never the other class people in my life. The instructor exclaims :With ten of your, I could take an African country! Who are the other guys? An aircraft take down team run by an airplane manufactuerer.
Yeah, I look back on my time in, and I'm glad I didn't go for SF. So many guys I've met with busted bodies from all the rucks and air drops before or after they retire. Or dead. I decided to get out when I met a lifer that had no personal life, no wife no kids, just getting paid E6 plus $150 a month combat pay and picking up bar tail. Today when people brag about being Ranger, Seal, whatever, no one really cares except for a few gung ho pro-military people. I learned a lot while I was in, but very little applied to real life except understanding chain of command and good and bad leadership styles.
@@NoNoNoNoYoureWrong Lol. Yeah, I could have, but why? Playing soldier is fun, then you grow up. You are so clueless that you don't realize a lot of those guys die or have life altering injuries. One of our guys died in training. Almost all have PTSD and the suicide rate is high. So.....why in the fck would I get involved with that other than I like killing people and have a huge ego?
@@lbco5229 Nope. Obviously you never served. I knew guys that did a SF hitch and went back to regular. Just had no interest, more so they thought it was more of an ego thing that wasn't worth the wear and tear on their bodies for low pay.
everyone is entitled to there own opionion, at least in America. Are you a former team member, or just some genius that watches to many movies?@@ubt3606
Stupid title never happened Delta are not impressive on the range in the least, rangers give no fucks. Come on man did you see those female DEI USSS officers. Now thats impressive getting it in the holster after the 15th try. Delta contract security guards should stay silent and in cognito. Definitely not on utube…
@@joebrown3569 there is such a thing as the weakest link, I'm sure those who believe they are spec ops just because they merely made it through the selection process have used this label as a means to make money off those who deem spec ops as a challenge and who are not willing to take on the challenge themselves and dont understand the difference between those who define spec opps and those who take the name in vain by making money off those who deem them as something more than they are

It no shock to A Ranger because most of Delta used to be Rangers . They just leveled up.
Sorry dude, the M203 is anything but exotic…it’s just a grenade launcher.
You don't think cag was testing different granades? That's what the notes were for.
Can we please get something straight. Actors dress like the military not the other way around. As a veteran that upsets me.
Yeah, I look back on my time in, and I'm glad I didn't go for SF. So many guys I've met with busted bodies from all the rucks and air drops before or after they retire. Or dead. I decided to get out when I met a lifer that had no personal life, no wife no kids, just getting paid E6 plus $150 a month combat pay and picking up bar tail. Today when people brag about being Ranger, Seal, whatever, no one really cares except for a few gung ho pro-military people. I learned a lot while I was in, but very little applied to real life except understanding chain of command and good and bad leadership styles.
Perfectly said like a guy that could never make it down that path in the first place.
@@NoNoNoNoYoureWrong Lol. Yeah, I could have, but why? Playing soldier is fun, then you grow up. You are so clueless that you don't realize a lot of those guys die or have life altering injuries. One of our guys died in training. Almost all have PTSD and the suicide rate is high. So.....why in the fck would I get involved with that other than I like killing people and have a huge ego?
It’s either in you or it’s not. If ‘it’ is in you, there is no other way.
Its true some of the sof bros arent the most balanced folk
@@lbco5229 Nope. Obviously you never served. I knew guys that did a SF hitch and went back to regular. Just had no interest, more so they thought it was more of an ego thing that wasn't worth the wear and tear on their bodies for low pay.
The D force are the best of all us units not even seal come to there level
God Bless you! 🇺🇲 WWG1WGA 🇺🇲
So sad they lose every war they are in.
All that training and each year they get out shit by the coast guard. Who doesn’t train as much b/c we actually have a real job.

Clickbait
Lol, Don't care what you call them, green beret, delta fart, ranger, they aint fing Marines. Semper Fi.
Whatever makes you sleep well at night little man.
How do you know somebody is a Marine? He'll tell you.
you're right, they're better than marines
everyone is entitled to there own opionion, at least in America. Are you a former team member, or just some genius that watches to many movies?@@ubt3606
Delta would never stoop that low.
Stupid title never happened Delta are not impressive on the range in the least, rangers give no fucks. Come on man did you see those female DEI USSS officers. Now thats impressive getting it in the holster after the 15th try. Delta contract security guards should stay silent and in cognito. Definitely not on utube…
And you are sir ???
No one believes this bull anymore
Ah. That’s a weird way to call an experienced, tried warrior a liar.
@@joebrown3569 that's a good way to babble nonsense
@@joebrown3569 there is such a thing as the weakest link, I'm sure those who believe they are spec ops just because they merely made it through the selection process have used this label as a means to make money off those who deem spec ops as a challenge and who are not willing to take on the challenge themselves and dont understand the difference between those who define spec opps and those who take the name in vain by making money off those who deem them as something more than they are
