Abel don’t sell yourself short brother. I agree with everyone else that said it…. You are great man love seeing you on the show again
I am pinning this for Abel!
Aye, able, I agree with this man. I enjoy the trio for their own reasons but it's always dope to have someone nonmilitary to ask the questions that the avg bear wouldn't know or something.
Much love able
@@FNGACADEMYRestrepo is an even better documentary
Abel. You're NOT BORING, bro. You bring a different (and very useful) perspective. All three of you is peak FNG.
I really like the Abel videos. Sometimes, when it’s just Kurt and Buck, they don’t explain things well enough because they already know what they’re talking about. But when Abel is on, he’s asking Buck really good questions and making him explain things well.
Agree. His lack of knowledge brings questions that otherwise may not get answers.
Agree. For those people that never been in the military but studied military terminology or been in the military understand the environment , it's easier for them but for everyone else is like what the heck are they talking about . Military loves using acronyms a lot. Which is freaking annoying even when I was in the Army. Each brand has a way of doing things, even something that should be standard like clearing a house of terrorists each branch will do it differently heck even each unit will do it differently lol.
@@davidjob4909 same with police departments. Some are so wildly different in their tactics it is damn near impossible to integrate.
Agreed, that's some self-hating bs. I appreciate Abel's perspective cuz it's relatable as someone who was never in the military but has had family in and am just generally interested in military-related foreign affairs.
I like Abel. He represents all the civilian's without tactical experience.
As much as I want to razz Abel, you're not boring bro, you're a different, interesting perspective to Buck and Kurt, and we definitely appreciate all the work you do on the channel, in front and behind the camera!
Abel we fuckin love you bro just because you don’t offer the perspective of someone with combat experience doesn’t mean you aren’t entertaining to have on. You represent 90% of people who watch this channel who havent experienced combat and often ask the questions that a lot of us have in the comments too. You are just as important and appreciated by the FNG squad as Buck or Kurt, keep being you brotha we love it🤙
I'm a female civilian from Germany and i totally agree with Buck, the comment section here is awesome. I learned so much from your channel already and i'm always having a great time watching your videos. Keep up the good work! Much love from 🇩🇪
That SNAP!! of the bullet got me chills down my spine. Hi guys I'm a civilian from Italy, this video reminds me of my countless talks with my grandpa, he was a WW2 veteran and as he used to explain to me "you'd learn very quickly from the sound, the level of threat you were under, whatever they happened to shoot at you, be it mortar shells or bullets". We watched a documentary once with original sound and footage from the war: man the gleam in his eyes! The twitch in his fingers every time he heard a close "snap" near the cameraman... He was still in the trenches right then and there, sitting at the table with me. Chilling man, from the greenest civilian, that is one hell of an experience that I can only imagine or not. Thank you guys, I love these reactions! Ps: Abel, your presence is as appreciated as the rest of the guys 😉👍 Keep it up! My thanks to the FNG team 😉👏
Honestly, the best case scenario is to have all three of you on these, especially something real like this. Abel's ignorance of military is a blessing, get him there asking questions for the two experts to rattle back-n-forth about. Also, protip is to film this again with Kurt. Everybody will watch it, easy content boys.
Abel you're perfect for these types of videos because as a civilian you ask the questions that we would be asking in the comment section
I like abel episodes. He has good insight on cinematography. And he asks the sort of questions I would ask
This is one of my fav channels on youtube currently. I appreciate the humor
we appreciate you!
This was such a great documentary and very sad. God bless our troops. And don’t sell yourself short Abel, you’ve got a lot to offer in the commentary. You ask some really good questions.
I remember when I was little, and seeing the movie for the first time. My father told me, he almost made it in the documentary with his unit the 101st Airborne. Then last minute he was sent somewhere else. Which he told me it was Gods mercy.
Abel does the editing... And the man who does the lighting, no orange ompaloompas or Buck the blueberry... Great job and an important team member! Nice to see you Abel! Definitely not boring!
I actually enjoy Abel during serious episodes. He asks the questions that many armchair commandoes are probably afraid to ask. Hoooooah!
the sound of bullet near pass ... bad experience, but watching you lads every time is cool, god bless
Watching that unit enter that (possibly) empty conpound even unnerved me. It was like a horror movie or smonething.
Honestly I enjoy all your videos, especially when u got jokes.
Restrepo !!!!!!
Man, hearing Sean saying when they catch naps and what snaps them back up. Abel, you represent people like me who've never served, but have mass respect for those who do.
Thank you, this new schedule is much better.
We just needed more FNG and I personally really appreciate you finding a creative way to do that.
Looking forward to part 2 is always fun.
Good to see you Mr. Abel
Y’all need to keep the ice out of your cups but still love the breakdown!
I knew Vowell when he was a full bird. He was our Brigade Commander in 2015, Rakkassans. These days I believe he is a Major General. Really nice guy. He seemed like he truly cared about the enlisted man. He would PT with us all the time. Seems like we were his favorite platoon. 2nd Platoon, A Troop, 1-33 Cav, 3rd BCT, 101st Airborne.
Just wanna thank you guys for the amazing content. A lot of people probably don't realize that all the things you guys talk about, while a lot of the time combat and military specific, actually transcend those things and apply to so many different experiences and situations. From first responders to medical and nursing roles, and even to just literally anyone who's dealt with their own traumatic events in their personal lives (not that anything could ever be the same as combat**). Dealing with that type of stressor, how we react to it realistically, sometimes stupid and unbelievable things that happen, that we witness, or that we even do, and how we cope with it during and after. Just so much you guys sit down and speak honestly about. Do not stop boys!
we appreciate you!
Great job guys! I know this channel is SF oriented, but as a non-combat oriented Veteran, I was an AF Air Traffic Controller, it's cool to hear a different perspective of these reviews. Keep up the amazing work you all are doing!!
Abel is the perfect person to bring more interest out of the civilian sector, especially if this is someone’s first fng video. You’re contributing to the team whether you can admit it or not !
As a UK Vet, I find your sarcasm based humour epic. Very much what you’d expect in the UK Mil.
One film to watch is, ‘Best in Hell’ on RUclips.
It’s a pro Wagner Group film but take it as what it is.
Excellent visual of peer on peer asymmetric warfare in the urban environment.
Use of combined arms including visuals of the weapon systems.
Loads of stuff to discuss from movement with fire, casualties, alternate breeching points, use of limited bounds to avoid over extending etc.
Again, I’m not promoting it as pro Russian, but a well made depiction.
Though, personally I would have defended from ground level and surrounding elevated positions then held the tower block as a reserve demolition.
Great channel
great idea for the multi-part posts! we'll definitely come back for more and get more coverage of the movies!! 100% win/win!!!! looking forward to it! 😁
Abel the fans love you bro. It’s good to see you back on screen!
Thts funny, I was jus watching this doc when yall came out with this review, very good documentary
Thank you buck, been waiting for this for a long time.
You bet!
🫶
Love this channel! It’s always a great time. Well done guys 🫡
As soon as i saw this doc show up on amazon prime i KNEW yall were gonna watch it
I'll never forget Abel's "You wanna film? FILM!" from the Catalina Island episode :D
As for recommendations - "Who Dares Wins" (1982, British movie about the SAS) and "9th Company" (Russian movie about the invasion of Afghanistan by the Soviet Union). Would love to see your take on both.
I am a huge fan of this documentary. The father, and son duo going into the most dangerous regions of Afghanistan and getting right into the thick of a pretty serious gunfight. At times, a full 360 degree ambush was sprung on them. Definitely recommend you check it out if you haven't seen it.
I won't spoil the ending. But suffice to say, there were many tears shed. I am not a veteran, but many of my family are. And this documentary gave me a new discovered respect for what they did.
Great vid - I think the ruck trainer is a great idea and a useful tool - can't wait to see the boots 👍🏼
The sort time I was in the Washington NG I had a Sargent that was a guy in the actual event. I believe he said he had a small acting role in the movie. Super chill guy. Wish I could remember his name.
I'm just here to say... Training Day
I like the civilian perspective that Abel brings to the videos.
Acronym Knowledge TIC= Troops In Contact
It's definitely an experience and after the first few times you do get used to the snaps and cracks.

"Rule no. 1: gotta look cool"
Man, I'm gonna use this alot
You guys rock!! Keep em coming. Thoughts on doing the movie 300??
I've just binged "The Pacific" It's not a bad show. Give it a try.
yup was a great show done in a completely different style from band of brothers but was necessary to be done that way just due to the way the pacific theater was. it was a completely different war from the european theater. if you haven't seen hacksaw ridge yet, definitely check it as well.
@@sirmonkey1985 Yeah, I was shocked how difficult it must have been and how those marines endured. I'll checkout Hacksaw Ridge. Thanks!
Rose Anvil might be a good boot collab opportunity.
You may want to look into the documentary "Restrepo" by Sebastian Junger and Tim Hetherington
was in 173rd with Doc from Restrepo, we will do that one for sure
@FNGACADEMY in 173rd? Same here nice to hear, Able, Chosen and Scouts
11:37 very well said. 👌🏽👌🏽
A great documentary to check out is "Where Soldiers Are From" . It's about the first engineers in Afghanistan.
ill check it out
We made a Clan! :)))
Just a comment on how nutty life is and a small world we live in sometimes. I was in the Rakkassan unit in the first half of the 90s that the First Sargent featured in this documentary's in. I got out and in the 2000s managed a bar and when this came out I recommended it to some of my staff who were friends who I thought would appreciate the film well one of the girls who was a bartender for me and a friend says that the First Sargent is her brother.
You guys should check out the danish war documentary called Armadillo
It’s pretty crazy
RESTREPO! Is a must watch
For next Reaction, book: The Filthy 13
Abel, my man! Technically you are my favorite person on this channel, especially when you're watching with those over juvenile delinquent Green Beret types... Because it just reminds me of watching shit like this as a kid with my father... (Green Beret from 1964 to 1979 5th,7th,10th SFG)... So yeah I do feel your pain at times besides it's been my experience that anybody with the name Sean has turned out to be an asshole😂😂
You fellas should react to 'Ross Kemp in Afghanistan'. Awesome documentary following some British units, infantry and mechanised. Some really good (and tragic) footage and experiences.
Watch all your stuff, keep it up guys.
6:49
Fighting Ghost in Khost.
Y’all should watch inside combat rescue it’s a documentary series that follows a rescue squadron in Afghanistan
502d, 327th, and the 187th are the units in this documentary. I served with all 3 in my time in the 101st. AIRBORNE All the Way
The episode numbering thing annoyed me but youtube forcing creators to have to game the stupid algorithm annoys me way more. Do what you need to Abel, we'll watch em all anyway!
Hi there, have you guys reviewed already Ultimate force? Action series from the UK featuring SAS.
Granted yes, Abel you don’t have the expertise of a Green Beret but you are still useful when you ask Buck questions that other civilians might be wondering. Not all your viewers are military. You also bring good criticism with what makes good and bad cinematography from your experience with that. Cheer up dude. Don’t let the few negative comments outweigh the mostly positive comments about you being in the videos.
Buck is such a lovely person he sees what i see which is Able he can see that Able is a lovely person as well he's awesome he just doesn't fully realise it yet sometimes people need to test themselves to know themselves better it humbles you i myself had multiple powerful mushroom trips that pushed me to and beyond my limits and gave me confidence and courage i didnt know i had
they say i have PTSD now and im pretty strait forward and just say what i want and i do the things i wished i would have done if i got the chance because ive left this place before and i know i will again we are only in this life game for 5 minutes compared to the time zone on the other side its a test a chance to learn then we move on oops that got a bit long anyway this is one of the best channels on RUclips hands down
Great!
This is incredible, hope Kurt is okay...and Abel, you're good man...Best community ever! since we are...can I get a free Ruck trainer 2.0? LOL
React to: The Devils Brigade. Bridge Over River Kwai
Can't wait for the boot. I'll get one!
finally done! took a long time
Nice one. Did you guys do something from Vet TV? Or considered doing it? Like Grunt's life. I'd be really interested in your perspective.
Great movie
you take pics for ID of ordnance later. track SN to the shippers/ smugglers all the way from port of departure and the seizure of that ordnance. Not all combatants are on the battle field.
God I remember watching this and that final roll call bit fucked me up bro. It's like it's not quite real until you hear their names called and there's no answer and it hits you, they really are gone
I’m a war documentary nerd and book collector. There is another documentary covering these guys, except it’s their Chaplain, who carried a camera the whole time, and he made a documentary. It’s called No Greater Love. It’s better than this one. Also, For The 25, Pech River Boys, and Combat Obscura are all good too
Abel isn't boring. I enjoy his comments. It's good to have a civilian to ask questions that ex operators think are stupid. LOL
Want to recommend the danish documentary Armadillo (2010).
I thought you will review French movie “The Nest” or Hornets nest in original language. Really recommend that movie.
Idk know why I keep hearing that bullet almost hitting and I feel like Yess go time opportunity to use skills with little Ik. but ik In irl ima be breathing really hard and hope for the best for the unknown😂
I'd like to see your reaction to End of Watch and the show Southland as a former cop. Both are very realistic, they just compress the career into a shorter timeframe
Personally I enjoy Abel's perspective as a layman, asking questions curt wouldn't normally ask because of his ignorance on the topics. More viewer perspective
Abel! ❤ ❤ ❤ ❤ ❤ ❤ This show would never work if you weren't there to do the necessary cat herding. You're perfect just the way you are ❤
And, like other people have said, some of us civilians need a civilian in the mix to ask the right questions.
Wow 😳
Give Abel a break and you guys should watch “True Detective”, the long shoot out, pretty crazy
Hey, you guys said something in this video about getting naked in order not to overheat after the adrenalin dying down in your systems. Did I get this right (please mind I´m not a native speaker). I ask becasue I have a rare disease with my adrenaline balance and I get the heat problems all the time after I get into social affairs because of my aspergers. My doctor says that only men have this diease and nobody knows why. When it spiked 14 years ago I lost my eye sight on one eye and I had to take medication for almost a year to get it back. Fortunately I got it back but I had to abandon my job as a photographer.
Wish you could tell me more about adrenalin issues.
It actually makes sense that Abel Beyond here. Because when the other guys on. You're a little bit more casual with your explanations you don't go into as much detail. And I feel like with this video specifically you went into a lot more detail than you normally do. It's not to say that you haven't gone into great detail in other videos before. I just feel like in this particular breakdown you went a bit further than normal. Which I thought was good. And I think a lot of it is attributed to the fact that you have somebody who's not in the military. Doesn't have that military wherewithal. So it pulls more information out of you that we can then listen to.
Buck, if/when you do another episode of The Unit, maybe bring Tyler back on for that so you both can pick that apart
will do!
@@FNGACADEMY cool beans. Also, when you and Kurt get to season 5, episode 7 of SEAL Team, I have a feeling that you both will have a lot to say during that one.
Abel speaking my mind on life.
A Green Beret and a Black Baseball Cap 🧢
Kiitos hyvästä ohjelmasta Terveisiä Suomesta
Would love to see you react to combat footage with Kurt. :)
can do!
southland please
Hey Abel a los mexicanos nos caes a toda madre. PD seguiré esperando las botas
If you plan on doing more documentary, I recommend Free Burma Rangers
please do starship troopers.
Awesome video I know this is off subject of the video but I have a question. Does a 5ft female stand a chance of being in special forces? Just wondering
if you guys are looking for merch ideas i think a hat with vietnam era tiger stripes and your logo on the front with the bill and rest of the hat being black would be doooppee
i'm looking for a new hat with that style and checking all the channels like yours that i support and no one has a good one.
Don't kick yourself Abel. Most of your viewers are civilians. We need that civi perspective as well. Otherwise your show will just be a circle✊️🍆 of military guys. Also you shouldn't feel like you need to comment on every scene. Just choose the ones you think you have some important input. Keep up the good work
I am hunted by the future. Will the future be my past? Or is time a fade out picture. Of my everlasting cast?
Inside Green berets documentary on RUclips
Dud those V-shaped chassis actually work? Or did they just make much bigger IEDs?
Surely if you hit something with a big enough bomb, it's game over no matter what defenses you have...
True, if the boom is big enough there's nothing you can do but the point of the V hull is to deflect as much as possible to the sides
👌
Id like to request you guys react to boys of abu ghraib
Guys continue the rogue heroes series
Hey Buck👍🇺🇲💪
what up homie!
Keep Abel lets go.
