Who caught the next character to appear in the Mr. Rogers, Bob Ross trilogy? come on peeps gotta watch till the end!
Deadpool... You're having a damn good time with this! 😂 🇺🇲🤘🏼🏴
Or is it Buck Wilson? Wade Buckson? We'll have to wait and see! 😂
@@JayDubb3BCT LMAO!
Bros what's a good app to track mileage rucking. Right now I'm just going on time.
Hey Buck, this was verbatim me in sfas. I crushed gate week, and went 8/8 on the star, but I was a terrible teammate in Team Week. I was so worried about making myself look good and I didn’t worry about my teammates and the team. This lead to me being a 21 day non-Select, dropped in the final formation. It was gut punch. It took a lot of self reflecting and I know I made mistakes and really was self centered. This hurt the team more than anything . I ended up commission and I am gearing up to make another trip to SFAS. My failure has lead to becoming a better leader and fully understanding what it means to lead and put the team and mission first. Thank you for all the videos.
this is exactly why people who try fail, and people who fail know that it is a blessing... so much growth comes from failure, good stuff brother
With SFAS less than a month away I really needed this. You’re the man, Buck!
get after it bro!
Good luck man
Do you start the 19th? So do i :D
I hope you become the greatest Green Beret to ever live
Good luck man
Love that story about Jesse and his rifle, definitely one of my favorites you’ve told.
Thanks dude
anyone else get scared by the title? Thought buck was quitting the youtube for a second there D:
lmao, no way!!
Holyshit that freaked me out too, those words "Final advice", I thought oh shit its his last video.
Phew! :D
Great advice, a good man brings up his peers with him.
thanks man
@@FNGACADEMY Thank you. As a guy without a father figure I look to people like you to get the torch of knowledge to succeed and think in a healthy and self growing way. Maybe one day I can pass the torch and do the same.
This is also great advice for success in life, no matter what you do. Great job Sean.
thanks brother
Hey Buck! Would you be able to talk about what all the different ODA teams are like? Dive and jump teams are pretty self explanatory but I’ve been super curious as to the training and objectives of mobility and mountain teams. Thanks again for all the awesome content dude!
will do!
Went through SFQC pre selection, I knew they couldn’t kill me and I would die before I quit. Changed my life forever. Class 3-80.
so much growth comes from struggle
This is a much needed video especially since Father figures are super rare your already a cut above most men thank you sir and I'm definitely waiting for beers&breakdowns 🤙🍻🤙
thanks brother
“…24 hours of sleep deprivation, everybody wins” lmao.
That programs sounds cool
it was awesome! VLOG about it drops today!
Tyvm solid advice not just military but real life
thank you
oh hell yh cant wait for the new shows! lets go!
Dropping soon!
Damn solid advice for life.. focus on the success of those around you, and you'll inevitably find success yourself. Especially in a team environment.
thats it!
Awesome video, man! I'm studying for the Brazilian army and it's been such a harsh journey, but your videos help me out so much that I can't thank you enough.
glad to help! thank you for the support!
I got my slot this past week for SFAS and I've already had the mentality of making sure that my buddies and myself get selected. It's good to know that I'm already in the right mindset. Thank you for the vid and encouraging words, bro.
how did it go?
Don’t forget to cord your gear too. This was a tremendous video. It’s always we not me. The Cadre notice this attitude and it helps you maintain your eye on the prize.
fact!
Like tether it? Or is this some kind of army slang?
@@somethinganything4864 tether your gear to yourself. Especially the compass. Bring lots of 550 cord, a pocket knife/ letterman tool and a lighter if possible. If you don’t know what to do with those, your former 11, 12, and 13 series Joe’s and Joanne’s will square you away.
I appreciate you buck I was going down the wrong path I was gang banging before I started working towards to becoming an SF Operator I wanna do the 18 charlie thank you for giving me hope and help me see to more in life then myself it's to the person to the left and right thank good vibes to you 🧠
Tell more about that Jesse story and that guy in group
Thanks Buck 👍 I'm a week out from joining the french foreign legion. I'm excited and nervous but I'm going to remember this through selection and training. Been watching your videos for some months now while I've been preparing. You've been a real help man.
Legio Patria Nostra
that's pretty damn cool! if you can keep us posted on the process!
Wow Buck solid advice, this advice pertains to all of life. I was stressed and worried about my life and I started to pray and help other people, what a blessing that was, it took the focus off me and I was able to actually be there for other people.
************ ************** ****************
That rifle thief story was some cold blooded shit.
"Semper I, f*ck the other guy" is a trashy way to be.
Have some integrity for the sake of your team and be a better person for your own well being.
best part was the triumph of Jessie passing anyway, never quit there is always a way.
Hey what do you do if you have to take a shit while you're doing something important? Like, being a backpacker I kinda have an idea, but let's say you're in the middle of land nav, you're gonna go 2. Any... "advice"?
you're in the woods, let it fly...
Watching this as I begin my day. Many thanks to you, Sean.
you bet! thanks for the support!
What is 18 Alpha Fitness? I looked it up on RUclips and it was just some guy stretching for 20 minutes. Good stretch, but I'm not sure how that's a sponsor 😂
he runs a strength and conditioning program through his website
@@FNGACADEMY Ooh it's a website? I'll definitely check it out, thanks Buck! 👍🏽
@@SMM_NAA an app as well
I’m about to get on the plane for basic!! I did a 11x with an option 4 ( airborne) contract so that I’m already qualified to go to selection! Gonna miss watching your videos!! Thanks for the advice
you bet get after it bro!
Have fun at 30th AG lol
Hi Buck - Thank you for your service! I've watched a ton of your videos, and they've really helped me learn more about SF. I have a few questions for you:
Mike Glover mentioned on the Jocko podcast that on his first deployment with SF, his job as an 18B was to train and lead the Afghan forces in weapons, tactics, QCB, etc; he said he was basically their "commander". Do only 18B's train and lead partner forces in this way? In other words, do 18D's only train the partner forces in medical techniques and not tactics/gunfighting/QCB? Are only 18B's leading the partner forces in raids/hits/etc.? I figured as an 18B yourself you would have some insight into this.
Thanks!
thank you!
I leave for ft Benning Ga tomorrow with an 18x contract. You've been a Huge inspiration
nice!!! get after it!!
I go to psyop selection in less than 40 days. I've been using these videos to pump me up and get in the right mindset. Thanks Buck!
A lot of people don’t realize but PSYOPS selection is one of the 4 Selection courses the Army offers in order to just continue training.
Most people think of Special Forces and Ranger for that matter.
The 4 courses of selection the Army offers are Special Forces, Rangers, PSYOPS, and Civil Affairs. I’ve completed the CA course myself. I should have went 18D. But I decided to stay in CA until I retired a few years back. I’ve got to meet some of the most professional and well rounded individuals out there. CA and PSYOPS is one of the best kept secrets in active duty Army. The various skills that this people bring to the table are definitely game changing. This field that you have chosen has lots of opportunities for professional development and taking advanced courses to better serve your Team. I wish you the best.
positive mindset will carry you through a lot man!
It’s crazy how different the Army is from unit to unit. I constantly reflect on my decisions that led me to a non-deployable conventional infantry unit where my days consists of getting griped at for my hair being too long by a fat bald SGM who claims that my slightly longer hair (which is within AR670-1) will somehow get me killed in combat and partaking in pointless layouts from 0930 to 1700. The lamest part of this is how I know that there’s adventure and more important ways to serve my country just across the airfield at Ranger Battalion and the SF Group. This has been my motivation to train up to attend and hopefully pass RASP. These videos really keep me sane, thanks Buck and hopefully I will make it into the SOF community.
get after it! RASP is fun after the first month... just hang in there until then!
Who is this Kevin guy I must contact him ASAP

Was in the middle of today's training sesh when this popped up on my feed, couldn't have been more thankful as today was brutal, love the content buck! Love to see how FNG academy is growing, it's a major help! Buck is seriously the most down to earth and legitimately awesome guy out there, nothing but respect, a true mentor and role model, the man's made such an impact 👍🏼
glad to help thanks for the support!
💪🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸💪
Excellent wisdom. Thanks for the reminder Buck. This is why I have such great respect for Green Berets, and chose to train with them as a civilian.
Never gets your hands in the pocket, that's trouble for sure.
So crazy wish you were around back in the day. Thank you.
thank you!
Anyone else leaving for basic on 18x contract August 16th?
Thanks bro!! I needed to hear this!! 🙏🏻 i appreciate ya 🤙🏼
How many guys in selection were from the 75th? How much more prepared were they?
Number 1 USA.🌎🇺🇸🦅
God bless America.🇺🇸🙏🏻
Buck being part of the solution and not part of the problem!
Yooooo, that endinggggg 😂😂😂 🔥
ahh you got caught it lmao nice!
I hope more people join army is hurting bad for people
Imagine buck said “don’t fucking do it, go Air Force officer” 😂😂😂 bucks the man. Thanks for the videos
you bet! thank you!
As I told my children "Don't let anyone ever say you can't do something". They remember that to this day. They have been very successful.. I just wished I had someone when I was 16 to tell me that and support me. I was the first in my family in the military.. I listened and believed what some important people in my life up to that point told me. I found out too late in life that the bigger and more complex the challenge the better I function .Make mistakes but learn why.
@@michaeledlin9995 it was a joke. You know because SFS is hard. And Air Force officer is easy(er)
@@vrcmf3172 I know it was. Hell I was Air Farce enlisted. I worked along side with these guys.
8:47 is the best part hands down 😂
Bryce get's it.
It is better to give than to receive. Great advice Buck
If you are in a room full with ppl, Always be the first to assist
Thank you so much for this video and previous encouragement in DM's
Thank you! DM's are overloaded right now but I will try and find it
@@FNGACADEMY you've already responded I was just thanking you for doing so!
Buck, I watched your why you quit video. You ever been diagnosed with ADHD? Doesn't mean youre all over the joint. Kobe Byrant had ritalin in his system when he died, Michael Phelps, Simone Biles, Astronaut Scott Kelly and insert any high paced entrepreneur.
never went to the doc as a kid.. but i am sure i have it
I watched till the end and was slightly upset that I couldn't see the baller back piece, but I'm also saying I'm not disappointed
Air force special recon > every other job.
Solid advice!!!🤜🤛🦅🦅🇺🇸🇺🇸
thanks homie
Excellent video, this is the very beginning the first step of training and great lessons for life, I love it 👍🏻 Deadpool 🤣 God Bless
thank you!
You need to come to NY and sign my book bro
Final advice:
Understand it is not about You.
It is about The Team.
fact
Not gonna watch this til my record is exponged and my 18X contract is signed.
one step at a time
Buck do an ep about coalition forces you worked with eg aussies and uk!!
i only worked with Afghan commandoes and special forces
Failure is the true path to success, don't cheat yourself. Embrace the suck, help your Brothers.
damn right Jay
It would be nice if the outro music wasnt ten times the volume of the content. Just sayin.
I hear ya
Was really hoping to be SF. Found out after meps I have something wrong with my heart. After visiting with a specialist, they say my heart is fucked up and I can't even join the army. Pretty bummed out because I really wanted to be a green beret and make something of my self and be a person who can accomplish anything life throws at me. Thanks buck for always making these videos for guys like me. Hopefully everyone else makes it and becomes the best group guys ever.
there are so many ways to be a bad ass in this life... dont let this stop you from obtaining that goal. Find your passion and be the best at it!
Yoooo Sean. I got hurt on a skydive five years ago and got prescribed painkillers that hooked me bad. The way I kicked it was helping other people without expecting anything In return. It got be outside myself and forget about my own bullshit and I’ve been on that path ever since. I always encourage people to do things for others without any expectation, it will pay off in the end in ways you’ll never foresee. Keep up the good work man love the channel.
great story man thanks for sharing! that is not an easy addiction to kick... good for you!
Yoo the Deadpool mask at the end is sick. I have to say though that is some excellent advice that you offered in this vid. Thanks a lot!
thanks bro
Hey buck. Is it possible you could do a video on the “75th Ranger regiment” with someone who’s came from there. I understand you did one with an special guest. He explained the Overall mission the regiment does. But what about the “daily life”. How is it for Family?, or is it true that they’re literally walking “blue books “. Is it super strict ? I’m in the 82nd now and working towards the regiment. I can’t seem to find any videos in it. Thanks buck !
will do
Thanks buck. I’m working out 2x a day mentally and physically to get there but however I don’t want to be disappointed and for it not be what I wasn’t expecting or looking for.
How is this channel so goddamn lit 🤯
This made me feel so much better because I was thinking of how from what I know about selection how I could help my fellow future green berets, so seeing how in line my mentality and the way I think is with the green beret tips that Buck gives us, makes me feel like I was born to be a Green Beret.
glad you found your calling! stay after it!
Hey Buck, can we get a video on Air Force PJ's?
ill have to talk to the guys from ones ready
That's great advice
You are the voice of reason and positivity that this whole world needs to hear. Thank You Sir. #Blessedinabundance

Well great, now the candidates are gonna pretend to care about other people during SFAS like they would pretend to be a team player at one point in time XD.

@@FNGACADEMY They usually show their true colors once sleep deprivation and hunger kick in.
