Thank you. Marines get so hurt or 311s think that they are more trained or the equivalent of JSOC or SOCOM. 😂 Army Rangers = Special Operations Marines = Not special operations ( dont be dumb)
I think your struggle is you believe you are supreme to everyone regardless of your m.o.s. Marines go to Ranger school if capable. Soldiers don't go to Marine schools ever. The most elite Marines have attended Army schools
FR talking sh*t when all you do is the MEU and security for the embassy’s is CRAZY….even MARSOC barely gets to leave the wire what makes you think we’re gonna believe a regular marine is “special”.🤣🤣🤣
As a former Ranger, we were more of a Fire and forget Force. Effective at gaining control over a battle space and gathering intel. We weren’t very good at working with indigenous forces, limited success with hostage rescue, and vehicle interdictions were an absolute shit show. Ranking SOF forces is kind of pointless, because every situation is different. They all have their strengths and draw backs.
On a scale of Brain power, maturity, and a longer pipeline of specialized training. 75th Rangers < Green Berets Anyday. SF has diving teams, combat action group, red cell forces etc etc. Historically, more Delta guys have been pulled from Green Berets than Rangers and SEALs combined. Hammers vs Scapels. Which would do more REAL damage? Depends on location and use.
@ are you under the impression that the Ranger Regiment is comprised solely of infantry line companies? I’d like to know where you’re getting your numbers for delta, because I’ve heard the exact opposite. As far as brain power and maturity goes, I submit to you the 18X program.
@erikxander5299 Coming from.serving in SF( not a Green Beret) I love those guys bit that's incorrect 70% of Delta comes from the Ranger Regiment and 28% come from the Green Berets only about 2-5% come from somewhere else. In its beginning Delta had more Green Berets and according to John Shrek McPhee alot of Delta Operators that came from the Regiment leave the unit and go to Become Qualified Green Berets and then return to the unit because with that SF Tab they get promoted faster at the Unit.

@Rico11bActually the Marines never wanted to be part of USSOCOM and still doesn't. The Marines at the top have never supported MARSOC and have been looking for every opportunity to get rid of it. MARSOC was only created after Donald Rumsfeld gave them a direct order to create it.
@@joshualittle877That’s not remotely true. Marines wanted SOCOM money and that’s what swayed them. And we are few and didn’t want to share our elite with anyone else.
@@Anthony4949 I don't doubt the Marines wanted USSOCOM money but go watch the interview with the founding Commander of MARSOC. He straight up explained how the Marines didn't want MARSOC and how the Upper Chain of Command of the Corps shit all over him and gave him little support and about how those same Marines havr friends in Congress like former Marine( in the very loosest sense of the word) Senator Blumenthol who have been fighting to disband MARSOC since its creation which was ordered by Donald Rumsfeld not sought by the Corps itself. USSOCOM was founded in 1987( I was alive then and lived with my uncle who was a Marine Warrant Officer that had served with 3rd Recon Battallion and First Force Recon during Vietnam and I lived with him at this time and remember it well and discussing this at length as I was looking at going into the military at that time though I didn't join until 1993)When USSOCOM was founded the Commendant of the Marine Corps at that time General Grey was asked by the SECDEF Casper Weinberger if the Marines Could or would choose to send Marines to USSOCOM. General Grey said not only no but he'll no. That was for several reasons. One: The Marines general disdain for even the concept of an elite Marine different than other Marines Two: They believed that all Marines are elite( complete bullshit and I grew up in the Corps and though I never was a Marine I like then I really do Infantry Marines are Elite for sure the rest are just as POG as a POG anywhere else) Three and more important Tham any other reason is that when USSOCOM was created it made essentially a seperate branch of the military US Army Special Operations Command for example places some Army Control over those Army units in it but it's essentially there for Administration functions such as pay, personnel and logistics USSOCOM is the Combatant Command and it really functions as seperate from any one branch. Delta for example falls under both USASOC and JSOC and actually gets most of its tasking from POTUS and SECDEF. My point is that by putting Marines under USSOCOM they are no longer assets of the Marine Corps, MAGTF/MEU or the fleet that they can use and abuse as they see fit. USSOCOM Personnel can be tasked to the Conventional side but as a rule they belong to USSOCOM. As a rule the Marines Corps absolutely despises the idea of Marines being under the command of anyone besides other Marines but from a more practical side of things and in this they had a good point, with the creation of USSOCOM the Navy and fleet lost Command over the Seal Teams, UDT, EOD, and SWCC. They still however had Recon and Force Recon as valuable assets especially Force Recon is a necissary asset to the Fleet for a whole host of Special Operations Capeable missions so the Marine Corps of 1987 did not want to damage that capability. When MARSOC was created in 2006 what happened? They had to gut a Force Recon Company in order to comply with Donald Rumsfelds excellerated time line. He ordered their creation the Corps didnt do it on their own. Now he had already given an order for MARSOC creation but he gave an order to accelerate that timeline in the aftermath of Operation Redwings. I'm Josh Little I'm not Donald Rumsfeld so neither of us can know why he did that but it's a good bet so that the Marine Corps didn't have to reach out to the Seal Teams or anyone else in the future for Special Operations Capabilities for their AO they should be able to handle themselves. None of what I have been saying is a nock or insult on the Marine Corps. Quite the opposite. All units in USSOCOM have their place and appropriate uses. SEALs have as a part of their wheel house of skills Special Reconissanse but in reality they have unfortunately become more of a Sea going SWAT Team as of late. USSOCOM in general has over emphasized DA missions to the detriment of other missions such as UW and Long Range Surveillance / Special Reconissanse. I think this has alot to do with the nature of the Iraq War where nothing was long Range and everything was urban door kicking. While this will change and adapt and hopefully the SEALs in particular will get back to honing their skills at their more traditional missions at that time Marine Scout Snipers either from STA Platoons, Force Recon or MARSOC would have been a far better choice for Redwings and would not have screwed up like the Seals did. I do however maintain that I am correct on my original point which is yes the Marines don't like MARSOC and still don't. I have known plenty of MARSOC guys who have told me that and as I said their Original Commander was interviewed and talked all about his experience in putting the unit together and how much BS he had to go through because the Corps was bound and determined to give as little support as possible to see the unit fail and right now as we speek the Corps seeks to get rid of MARSOC and has a new and pressing reason to do so, that being the possible war with China. They want on one hand to reduce the number of Infantry they have but on the other to consolidate MARSOC guys back into that Conventional Infantry Force. Now don't misunderstand what I'm saying the Marines as a whole have no plans what so ever to get rid of MARSOC and MARSOC has shown they are absolutely necissary and worth evey dime spent on them and yes the membership in the USSOCOM Community has benefits to the Corps like lots of money. All I'm saying is that there are traditionalists in the upper level of the Marine Corps Chain of Command who still seek to get rid of them no matter what and still regularly call for them to be disbanded. Thankfully cooler heads have prevailed thus far. The other thing I was saying is that the relatively secure place that MARSOC finds itself in now took time and operational experience to solidify and gain the support it now enjoys. In short they earned their spot and support and that took time it was not there from the start. That original Commander explained for example he got way more support in his task if purring MARSOC together from 160th( SOAR) that from his bosses in the Marine Corps. It was kind of like " Well you want to be Special go be Special and stop looking for help from us regular folks".
@@BeyondThe-b3vMost rangers aren’t very diplomatic due to our enlarged testicles making it hard to focus and form complete thoughts outside of f,ing and fighting. What my esteemed colleague meant was that our mission set of smaller strategic targets wouldn’t matter at all without the Army infantry doing God’s work on the larger scale by holding and maintaining the larger battlefield. Plus without you the POGs don’t move in and build coffee shops and beach volleyball courts. Not to mention the female contingent of 3s and 4s that get us through a 5 month stint until we can get back to the states. What kind of war would it be without that stuff? Now if you’ll excuse me I need to hit the gym. RANGER SMASH!!
My EIB 25th infantry uncle did 18 months combat in GWOT. Specifically Iraq along the Euphrates. He calls Rangers "Delta Bitches". He respects them, but he doesn't understand the hype and praise. Let me tell you why. Rangers are freaking tough, but are virtually a fraternity of "bros" that are unbelievably high of themselves. They hold a perimeter for Delta or SEAL elements to do the important stuff. They're used when directed. They weren't out everyday kicking doors, finding caches, or chasing Zarquawi. Regular army infantry, especially the infantry that obtained EIB status are more badass in my eyes. They fought with worse gear, weapons, and supplies, with less air and armor assets. No shade to Rangers, but it is what it is.
Hey dude, eib literally means nothing, cib means something and it’s not like the normal infantry separates soldiers with eibs into a different unit then soldiers without one. I’ve seen people bribe their way through eibs
All a CIB means is that you were an 11 series in a combat zone on a combat deployment. You need not have left the wire or ever been in a firefight to get it. You just have to be an 11 series in the context I typed above. An EIB on the other hand is a tested event.
The Ranger Regiment has more GWOT kills and captures than all other units combined. Respect to your uncle, but maybe sit this one out big dawg. The Regiment was doing all that shit, and then some.
Love it when dude asks a question then just proceeds to answer himself!!! Little but ego driven ....all theae dudes are huge egomaniacs..kinda comes with territory i think.
Rangers aren't tier 1 (Not saying they couldn't have done this op) . It would have either been CAG or DEVGRU. DEVGRU got the job due to Afghanistan being DEVGRU's AO whereas CAG was focused on Iraq. Going by what Shrek has said...whether or not it's true regarding CAG turning down the Bin Laden operation due to the lack of intelligence remains to be seen.
Rangers were involved in neptunes spear. They were the QRF, if the seals were compromised or couldn’t extract they would launch and recover them. Notice though that it was RANGERs coming if things went bad, not another seal team. There’s a reason for that
lol the Regiment is relatively big compared to SMUs. You think they’re only accompanying Tier 1 units and otherwise sitting around doing nothing? Do you think Ranger senior leadership would be OK with just receiving/setting missions for their guys to only run security for Tier 1 units? 😂
@chinqlinq89 I'm not really interested in your imaging beliefs are. Factually, regiment warriors are not equipped to conduct anything directly to HVT. Please give any supporting ROE, You feel supports any imagination you may believe the regiment has done. I am not devalueing anything they do. But 90% is supports by fire and yes rescue if needed for Tier 1 assets.
@chinqlinq89 Yes majority of the mindset is rescue and HVT support. It isn't a small task and is aligned with JSOC. I'm not putting the Rangers down. It's a extremely important roll. But Rangers are not Tier 1 unit. Maybe physically but not mission set.
@@shanggosuave1891 absolutely. It was a huge political loss that we and the NVA both signed the Paris peace accords. Nonetheless that doesn't take away the experiences learned in that war. Again, next question.
You've opened up a can of worms Yank! Both the UK Parachute Regiment and Royal Marines would have something to say about that! And if the US Army Rangers would've fought against the Argies during the Falklands War in 1982, then the Argies would've won!!
Parachute Reg troops are better than US Army Airborne but not as good as Rangers (Tabbed and Scrolled). Same for Commandos. They're both damn good, but they aren't equal to the 75th. They're one step below and obviously somewhere above US conventional infantry (marine and airborne). Reason why is because they're part of actual SOF. The exposure to bigger budgets, more training, more deployments, better gear, and so on in addition to the pipeline and standards basically ensures they are a step ahead of the Paras and Bootnecks. A more apt comparison is the SFSG, since they're actually involved in SOF. You Europeans really have got to stop underestimating Rangers. Your boot camp is NOT the same as Ranger School. Your infantry NCO courses in the Brecon Beacons- while tough as all get out- do NOT make you better than Rangers. We love you guys, but just cut it out already.
marine infantry are still just conventional infantry rangers are special operations and under socom you can't compare them at all marine grunts are definitely a step below sof units respectfully
Actually, Rangers have been around for a very long time. Rangers were not paratroopers until after the 2nd World War. If i remember my Ranger history from my RIP days correctly, I think only L co Rangers who came under the 101st Airborne/ Air assault during Vietnam did extensive Air ops. It wast until October 1983, 1st and 2nd Bat jumped low level into the island of Granada the Airborne runway seizure mission larger than a Co. Was born. C co 2nd 75 wpt plt 84 to 87 baby.
What was airborne school like back then? Reason why I ask is because every course in the Army seems like it's gotten tougher or at least better since the old days besides airborne school. Why did they get rid of Pre-Jump Week? What was that like? What were the pt events besides the pt test and airborne shuffle? Were there obstacles courses? Tactical events like eib weapons lanes?
Ok how much exactly did they get wrong on the Anti Hero podcast? This is sticking my friend. Most people can’t grasp why they’re doing it. They’ll think everything you say is a lie. You gotta get specific friend. And I thank you for your service. You’re a Goddamned hero regardless. The “it’s a lie 4 $ at the expense of ur fellow heroes that’s sticking.

Also- HE WASNT THERE ON EVEEN ONE OF THESE MISSIONS EITHER- HOW DOES HE KNOW??? That didn’t enter your thoughts huh?🤔 🤣
I was in the regiment and the big army. You know what the biggest difference was? The mentality. Every day in the big army I would hear dudes talk about how they hated it there, what they were gonna do when they got out, and count down the days ‘til their ETS. I almost never heard that in the regiment, because you have to fight to get there and fight to stay. Not to mention the fact that you have to maintain a 290 PT score and can fail tape once. The Ranger Regiment isn’t a bunch glorified grunts, they’re professional soldiers that get the job done. That’s why rangers have the highest kill/capture number of terrorists across GWOT over any other military force.

They're used when directed. They weren't out everyday kicking doors, finding caches, or chasing Zarquawi. Regular army infantry, especially the infantry that obtained EIB status are more badass in my eyes. They fought with worse gear, weapons, and supplies, with less air and armor assets.
No shade to Rangers, but it is what it is.
Hey dude, eib literally means nothing, cib means something and it’s not like the normal infantry separates soldiers with eibs into a different unit then soldiers without one. I’ve seen people bribe their way through eibs
Did your uncle tell you to write that?
All a CIB means is that you were an 11 series in a combat zone on a combat deployment.
You need not have left the wire or ever been in a firefight to get it. You just have to be an 11 series in the context I typed above.
An EIB on the other hand is a tested event.
The Ranger Regiment has more GWOT kills and captures than all other units combined. Respect to your uncle, but maybe sit this one out big dawg. The Regiment was doing all that shit, and then some.
@@509thparatrooper alrighty dude that’s a crazy claim
Love it when dude asks a question then just proceeds to answer himself!!! Little but ego driven ....all theae dudes are huge egomaniacs..kinda comes with territory i think.
What about “the unit”?
Which unit? I can name about 3 units that only go about the name “the unit”.
Probably the place Tim Kennedy should have gone. Seems like it'd fit his personality more. Just imagine.
Ask shrek about that. Lol
Shrek is a Ranger
@@lonergr3107he got injured jumping out of plane
I dated a Ranger. Fierce doesn’t sufficiently describe him.
Suggestive...
They literally just described every 0311
Marines always trying compare themselves. You can insert Army infantry in there but we know they can do it better
Rangers are in existence because Marines have to have someone to look up to.
Who tf is WE, Tim?
🇺🇸❤
Tim Kennedy is the 75th Ranger Regiment………all by himself
Why did they send the seals not the rangers for sadam or osama?
Rangers aren't tier 1 (Not saying they couldn't have done this op) . It would have either been CAG or DEVGRU. DEVGRU got the job due to Afghanistan being DEVGRU's AO whereas CAG was focused on Iraq. Going by what Shrek has said...whether or not it's true regarding CAG turning down the Bin Laden operation due to the lack of intelligence remains to be seen.
Rangers were involved in neptunes spear. They were the QRF, if the seals were compromised or couldn’t extract they would launch and recover them. Notice though that it was RANGERs coming if things went bad, not another seal team. There’s a reason for that
Sounds like a Marine to me
When seals are trapped behind enemy lines they dont send the marines to go get them they send the army 75th ranger regiment son
Gilly?
That’s what I was saying too
I’ll take Tim Kennedy is a goddamn liar for 1000 please Alex.

All regiment is is support by fire for Tier 1 operations.
Although Elitish, it's a good starting point for Tier 1.
lol the Regiment is relatively big compared to SMUs. You think they’re only accompanying Tier 1 units and otherwise sitting around doing nothing?
Do you think Ranger senior leadership would be OK with just receiving/setting missions for their guys to only run security for Tier 1 units? 😂
I think you mean rescue for seals lol
No longer the case. Unit guys have actually been in blocking positions for Regiment forces.
@chinqlinq89 I'm not really interested in your imaging beliefs are. Factually, regiment warriors are not equipped to conduct anything directly to HVT. Please give any supporting ROE, You feel supports any imagination you may believe the regiment has done. I am not devalueing anything they do. But 90% is supports by fire and yes rescue if needed for Tier 1 assets.
@chinqlinq89 Yes majority of the mindset is rescue and HVT support. It isn't a small task and is aligned with JSOC. I'm not putting the Rangers down. It's a extremely important roll. But Rangers are not Tier 1 unit. Maybe physically but not mission set.
Special operations capable*
Everything should be "Best In The World ; Most Lethal On The Planet "... There are other "Most Lethal" special forces around the world too, America.
With what experience?
@sirsaltytampon4379 Jungle warfare, for one.
@@shanggosuave1891 Vietnam war, next question
@sirsaltytampon4379 Americans lost. Had to retreat.
@@shanggosuave1891 absolutely. It was a huge political loss that we and the NVA both signed the Paris peace accords. Nonetheless that doesn't take away the experiences learned in that war. Again, next question.
Rangers are guys with a huge extra dose of testosterone,and combat suits them
Don't forget, huge balls!

Basically US equivalent of UK commandos
More like SFSG
You've opened up a can of worms Yank! Both the UK Parachute Regiment and Royal Marines would have something to say about that! And if the US Army Rangers would've fought against the Argies during the Falklands War in 1982, then the Argies would've won!!
Parachute Reg troops are better than US Army Airborne but not as good as Rangers (Tabbed and Scrolled). Same for Commandos. They're both damn good, but they aren't equal to the 75th. They're one step below and obviously somewhere above US conventional infantry (marine and airborne).
Reason why is because they're part of actual SOF. The exposure to bigger budgets, more training, more deployments, better gear, and so on in addition to the pipeline and standards basically ensures they are a step ahead of the Paras and Bootnecks. A more apt comparison is the SFSG, since they're actually involved in SOF.
You Europeans really have got to stop underestimating Rangers. Your boot camp is NOT the same as Ranger School. Your infantry NCO courses in the Brecon Beacons- while tough as all get out- do NOT make you better than Rangers. We love you guys, but just cut it out already.
“What are we now?” I’m no scientist, but I’m pretty sure Timmy was never a Bat boy.
If memory serves me right I believe he was both, a Green Beret and in the 75th
@@WanderingPassportshe def was not. Lol.
Which makes it even more badass how much props he is giving them right?
hes joking about how sof units lost their original mission set and all became direct action during gwot
Sounds like Marine infantry
It’s not marines go to rangers school so please stop you’re not on the same level
marine infantry are still just conventional infantry rangers are special operations and under socom you can't compare them at all marine grunts are definitely a step below sof units respectfully
why my last wife left me.
@JolynDominguez
Rangers lead the way, this one by lying his ass off about everything.
#RLTW
Of course he would have to ask because he easily forgets important details. lol
Actually, Rangers have been around for a very long time. Rangers were not paratroopers until after the 2nd World War. If i remember my Ranger history from my RIP days correctly, I think only L co Rangers who came under the 101st Airborne/ Air assault during Vietnam did extensive Air ops. It wast until October 1983, 1st and 2nd Bat jumped low level into the island of Granada the Airborne runway seizure mission larger than a Co. Was born. C co 2nd 75 wpt plt 84 to 87 baby.
What was airborne school like back then? Reason why I ask is because every course in the Army seems like it's gotten tougher or at least better since the old days besides airborne school. Why did they get rid of Pre-Jump Week? What was that like? What were the pt events besides the pt test and airborne shuffle? Were there obstacles courses? Tactical events like eib weapons lanes?

Ok how much exactly did they get wrong on the Anti Hero podcast? This is sticking my friend. Most people can’t grasp why they’re doing it.
They’ll think everything you say is a lie. You gotta get specific friend. And I thank you for your service. You’re a Goddamned hero regardless. The “it’s a lie 4 $ at the expense of ur fellow heroes that’s sticking.
They got zero wrong on the podcast.

Tim loves to exaggerate 😂 he’s so full of shit
Yep....glorified grunts....
😂😂😂😂 cuck boy
With a lot better training, gear, and put in a lot of work during GWOT.
I was in the regiment and the big army. You know what the biggest difference was? The mentality. Every day in the big army I would hear dudes talk about how they hated it there, what they were gonna do when they got out, and count down the days ‘til their ETS.
I almost never heard that in the regiment, because you have to fight to get there and fight to stay.
Not to mention the fact that you have to maintain a 290 PT score and can fail tape once.
The Ranger Regiment isn’t a bunch glorified grunts, they’re professional soldiers that get the job done. That’s why rangers have the highest kill/capture number of terrorists across GWOT over any other military force.
Yeah but can you carry 50 grenades? Tim I hope they pull your tab. You’re a disgrace to special forces.
Rolling with Tim. LIES
