"Lone Survivor" quite simply is an AMAZING book. If you want to know the definition of Valor...read it. From one Aggie to another, Thank You Marcus for your service and for telling this story.
Young men in the prime of their lives. Strong as could be. And they lay down their lives for their teammates in a heartbeat. If mikey could do it again, he wouldn’t hesitate. And vise versa.
don't worry guys. there are millions in awe of and grateful for your service. it is guys like you that grant us the freedoms we have and love. and thus, we love what you have done for us. that love and respect and awe is so much greater than any negative comment(s) could ever be. thank you all!
These are the humble protectors of our country. God bless them all. Anyone who hasn't read "Lone Survivor" needs to pick it up immediately. Best book I have ever read.
Marcus is an outstanding person. He stopped by our offices by where he lives and we were proud to meet him. We took a few pictures of him holding our .416 Barrett that are posted on my markdeano youtube site. He is the real deal.
Wow, I just heard about this, and it is inspirational. I don't know how some won't get behind these troops who are 'working' for us and giving their lives for her country. He is a genuine hero and (not much of a reader) I hear the book is excellent and going to read it.
I met and shoot this man's hand 5 days ago at a Houston Astros game. He was signing his book (which I had of course already read) and was there to throw out the first pitch. I cannot tell you how honored I was to meet him and to have him sign my book.
And what he couldnt mention on live television, (he had to say he blacked out) was the Axe didnt die right away, he got hit in the left side of his head and it blew away some of his skull and head tissue. He was still breathing but barely concious but kept on giving covering fire and his last word to Marcus were, "You stay alive, Marcus. And tell Cindy I love her."
1:45 he didn't risk his life... he gave his life. And please stop questioning Katie Couric's patriotism, she is just as American as anyone else... except the seals
all of these interviews and speeches are great. but it really doesn't explain everything to the depth that the book does. read it, it truly is an amazing story
If anyone wonders what brotherhood, sacrifice, courage and heroism look like, its the fallen SEALs that died in the Operation and this man sitting right here.
You guys need to realize is that when that first bullet goes past your head, politics and all that shit just goes right out the window. hooyah! god bless you mikey!!
This right here is why you should never judge a book by its cover. Marcus doesn't look like much. After a few drinks, you'd probably start shit with him if he bumped into you at the bar. You'd totally expect to kick his ass. It wouldn't be until after you woke up with a broken arm and blood dripping from your forehead that you'd realize you made a big mistake.
Marcus, your book has made such a tenable difference on my life, my outlook on life, and my work attitude in every single thing I do. The only thing I can't do yet, is drink water out of a glass Pepsi Bottle. Just kidding. But HOOYAH Marcus!
Amazing comments on this clip, what did you guys watch? What did Katie do wrong? God bless you Marcus and all our guys and gals out there in the cold tonight. The ROE question is legit, but ultimately these guys made the call. It is impossible for any of us to judge. The times had a great story on LT Murphy and his penchant for being looking out for others when he was growing up.
Such rights are neither earned, nor granted by you, a government, or by the Constitution. They are given by God. To attempt to dampen free speech is, in fact, a greater disrespect to public service in a democratic society than any disparaging comment or critique could possibly be. The freedoms that soldiers defend, citizens must use -- hopefully wisely, but often not -- or they become meaningless. It's two sides of the same coin.
i was a corpsman deployed in afghanistan. i was stationed with the fleet marine force (FMF) and i tended to naval special operators at times thru the marine corps. and under the Bush Admin. i was instructed many times that if i was ever being interviwed by the media to never say anything about the locals. i was toled that the american people are confused and i shouldnt be confusing them more so by making the the local population seem freindly. this is very much unlike the obama admin,
I'm confused he said he was paralysed so he hid in a cave and watched it all unfold..then he said he got up and was determined to walk out of there? and all his friends died but the enemy left him?
don't be ridiculous. the best UFC fighter would crush a SEAL in the cage. and a SEAL would crush a UFC fighter on the field of battle. they are trained for different things.
honestly people need to stop bashing the soldiers. they fight and die to give you the right to bitch and moan about what you dont like about this country. have some fucking respect
Great guy and amazing story. Seals are true heros. The only thing that comes to mind is of course those Herders. Hind sight is 20/20, however if you follow "stealth" to the letter of the law, you wouldn't let those guy's go. War is unemotional. Tie those ass holes holes up until you can recon the area and get the upper hand. It doesn't matter now, but it may have led to a different ending. I hate to say it but it's just a risk you can't take.
I don't know what country you belong to, and I don't really care, but you need to shut your trap and stop being a hypocrite. Why don't you worry about your own country, and we'll worry about ours. It's not like America is the only place that deserves to be scrutinized in these matters. It doesn't matter what country you are from, I'm glad I live here and not being swindled of my money without representation.
I thought Marcus was taken in by locals and cared for during those 6-7 days? He says in this video that he crawled 7 miles and was found 6 days later by the green berets. He doesn't mention anything about being cared for by locals.
-sorry, I just thought i'd detract from talking about such menial topics as "have i even heard an AR-15 being shot in a canyon" and instead cut to the point. That being, your country is in the wrong, are doing evil things and everyone knows it. ..I just think meddling over the circumstances surrounding a navy seal team who got their asses handed to them, is highly insignificant. Look at the bigger picture. Need i say more.
really 100 taleban? I've heard conflicting stories..like, as little as only 30 taliban. And we know how stories like these are given a pinch of salt to make a better selling story..like for his book perhaps. Either way, good on him for surviving. I bet it put his SERE skills to the test :D
the one big question: why are the seals using phones that don't work in thick vegetation??????? that makes no sense whatsoever!!! pentagon should had gave them the best phones on earth. dear god
If you know they're both wrong then why can't you see that the majority of humanity are seriously delusional? Delusion doesn't necessarily equal conflict and suffering, because correlation =/= causation. But I believe that the heaven delusion is mostly responsible for people behaving irrationally.
shoulda woulda coulda. it wasn't about the goat herders it was about the 100 or so goats, Goats are like money, food and status to these people some one would have missed them in a few hrs and came looking.
are you serious? the taliban have computers..do they owe navy seals for protecting their freedom? you make no sense war doesn't defend the use of computers..war is about economies and power
I find this to be false, a SEAL and a UFC fighter in an octagon? The SEAL would kill the UFC Fighter, the hand to hand Martial Arts they're trained in specializes in killing you opponent, not making them submit or knocking them out. Original name by the way.
and...that's why we have so many SEALs in the cage, making tons of dough post military service. SEALs are trained operatives who learn how to kill with tools, most of the time those tools don't include their natural weapons. are some great hand-to-hand combat guys? sure...not all of them, though. I know 3 SEALs. one is an out of shape tub who would get destroyed in the ring. he's also quite small without a lot of physics on his side in terms of body weight.
@jason bourne Actually, I don't believe you have the right of it. Fighters are trained to fight SEAL's are trained to kill......if you can't see the difference then I doubt you will ever understand. whats wrong can't handle the replies,.
Their idology is the same. If you were knowledgable of the mission that Seal Team 10 was on you would know that their target was bin ladens right hand man.
you're resorting to ad hominem. Just tell me what varieties of terrorism "war on terror" includes. As far as I know It's only terrorism done in name of Allah. Just tell me what they are and i'll back off. Otherwise you need to back off.
I hope this man is able to find peace in his life. I can't imagine the weight this man must carry on his shoulders.
Murph is the true hero!!!!
Good point. I didn't mean to deminish thier sacrifice.
I think he has. May God bless him and his family.🥇🇱🇷
Bro, that ain't an American flag, bro. Change that shit.
Marcus is a MAN.
He is what American heroes are made of.
May God Bless his soul.
He was a witness to his team leader and friends heroism!!! I'm glad Marcus lived to tell the tail of Mike Murphy's true sacrifice!!!
He spoke last night at my school (the Virginia Military Institute). It was the best speech I have ever been to.
"Lone Survivor" quite simply is an AMAZING book. If you want to know the definition of Valor...read it.
From one Aggie to another, Thank You Marcus for your service and for telling this story.
Young men in the prime of their lives. Strong as could be. And they lay down their lives for their teammates in a heartbeat. If mikey could do it again, he wouldn’t hesitate. And vise versa.
This man should be able to just "chill" for the rest of his life! Bills paid, meals cooked, just chill!
don't worry guys. there are millions in awe of and grateful for your service. it is guys like you that grant us the freedoms we have and love. and thus, we love what you have done for us. that love and respect and awe is so much greater than any negative comment(s) could ever be. thank you all!
Thank you Marcus, Matt, Danny and Mike my kids will all be told and retold about your sacrifice for each other and this country.
Marcus is just like, "oh god another fake ass media person"
These are the humble protectors of our country. God bless them all. Anyone who hasn't read "Lone Survivor" needs to pick it up immediately. Best book I have ever read.
Thank you for my freedom, Lt. Murphy. Thank you to all who serve in defense of freedom.
Thank God for their service.
Marcus is an outstanding person. He stopped by our offices by where he lives and we were proud to meet him. We took a few pictures of him holding our .416 Barrett that are posted on my markdeano youtube site. He is the real deal.

I'm not even worthy enough to watch this. Marcus, you are the man!!
Marcus is a real hero, R.I.P to his brother's 🙏🙏🙏
we love you marcus. thanks.
I met and shoot this man's hand 5 days ago at a Houston Astros game. He was signing his book (which I had of course already read) and was there to throw out the first pitch. I cannot tell you how honored I was to meet him and to have him sign my book.

One word - HERO
lone survivor - best book ive ever read
1:45 he didn't risk his life... he gave his life. And please stop questioning Katie Couric's patriotism, she is just as American as anyone else... except the seals
Thank you for looking out for us. mc
all of these interviews and speeches are great. but it really doesn't explain everything to the depth that the book does. read it, it truly is an amazing story
if u dont mind can u plz tell me the name of the book? thx
If anyone wonders what brotherhood, sacrifice, courage and heroism look like, its the fallen SEALs that died in the Operation and this man sitting right here.
You guys need to realize is that when that first bullet goes past your head, politics and all that shit just goes right out the window. hooyah! god bless you mikey!!
Marcus Luttrell - MAN
This right here is why you should never judge a book by its cover. Marcus doesn't look like much. After a few drinks, you'd probably start shit with him if he bumped into you at the bar. You'd totally expect to kick his ass. It wouldn't be until after you woke up with a broken arm and blood dripping from your forehead that you'd realize you made a big mistake.
you are sick sir, think like a mormal person, this guy is a real hero he went to save all of us.
read the book my friends! trust me, you will thank me and marcus luttrell most of all for being a committed US soldier he is
Marcus, your book has made such a tenable difference on my life, my outlook on life, and my work attitude in every single thing I do.
The only thing I can't do yet, is drink water out of a glass Pepsi Bottle. Just kidding.
But HOOYAH Marcus!

Good brave men!

thank you Marcus u have inspired me to join and fight.
wow..
@ledhead923 Until then they did not know of there precise location and that they were in trouble. His call let them know where they were.
Pure breed bad ass! Awesome story of survival.
i'm glad you live there as well!
i just feel a bit sorry for your neighbours...
What a badass
Great guy and amazing story. Seals are true heros. The only thing that comes to mind is of course those Herders.

It's SEAL not Seal.
I don't know what country you belong to, and I don't really care, but you need to shut your trap and stop being a hypocrite. Why don't you worry about your own country, and we'll worry about ours.

A lot of his story doesn’t make sense.. they actually fought less then 25 figjters
Who goes to war may die...
Actual title is: Eye to Eye with a Navy Seal and a CBS Robot
-sorry, I just thought i'd detract from talking about such menial topics as "have i even heard an AR-15 being shot in a canyon" and instead cut to the point. That being, your country is in the wrong, are doing evil things and everyone knows it.

@hoserboi Don't the Marines sponsor the UFC?Or something like that?
really 100 taleban?
I've heard conflicting stories..like, as little as only 30 taliban.
And we know how stories like these are given a pinch of salt to make a better selling story..like for his book perhaps.
Either way, good on him for surviving.
I bet it put his SERE skills to the test :D
you're welcome

He doesn't have those intense eyes glaring into the soul of the interviewer here, he must have like her.
Never forget never forgive spartan 01 frog man
they should have givin the goatherders food and water for 2 days and left so the taliban could find the goad herders
shoulda woulda coulda. it wasn't about the goat herders it was about the 100 or so goats, Goats are like money, food and status to these people some one would have missed them in a few hrs and came looking.
that makes sense
are you serious? the taliban have computers..do they owe navy seals for protecting their freedom? you make no sense war doesn't defend the use of computers..war is about economies and power
@CareyH316 they are made. its called training
should have taken the goat herders out. these men would still be alive if they did.
Too bad they couldn't hog tie the goat herders with hand cuffs that disintegrate in 24 hrs.
save all of us? what? i didnt realize our nation is suddenly in danger of being destroyed? is he a "hero", yeah sure but he didnt save all of us.
Heroes for protect our freedom, heroes for allows you using your computer and write those stupid words you wrote whitout censure.
I find this to be false, a SEAL and a UFC fighter in an octagon? The SEAL would kill the UFC Fighter, the hand to hand Martial Arts they're trained in specializes in killing you opponent, not making them submit or knocking them out. Original name by the way.
@edgedwords How do you know?
and...that's why we have so many SEALs in the cage, making tons of dough post military service. SEALs are trained operatives who learn how to kill with tools, most of the time those tools don't include their natural weapons. are some great hand-to-hand combat guys? sure...not all of them, though.
I know 3 SEALs. one is an out of shape tub who would get destroyed in the ring. he's also quite small without a lot of physics on his side in terms of body weight.
I would like Bush and Chaney lock in a cell and this tape replaid 100 times every day every day ....one day for every life lost ...both sides ...
LOL, i agree! Couric FTL.
@jason bourne Actually, I don't believe you have the right of it. Fighters are trained to fight SEAL's are trained to kill......if you can't see the difference then I doubt you will ever understand.
whats wrong can't handle the replies,.
they were muslims. theres a war going on between christianity and islam. they were being loyal to their god.
100+ hmmm
Their idology is the same. If you were knowledgable of the mission that Seal Team 10 was on you would know that their target was bin ladens right hand man.
These Afghans are farmers and they shepherd goats! They do not like to be called goat herders!
😂🤣😂🤣
rofl, burned.
Ok (LOL), if you say so.....
you're resorting to ad hominem. Just tell me what varieties of terrorism "war on terror" includes. As far as I know It's only terrorism done in name of Allah. Just tell me what they are and i'll back off. Otherwise you need to back off.
AMERICAN ZERO!!!! he was hiding while his friends died and then he walks out of there when the rescue arrives....
PROPAGANDA.
It was all bullsh*t, he spent his time drinking tea.....
