She’s a badass . I hit 3 IEDs in Iraq and then in 2014 got hit with a RPG at Bagram that ended my working career . 9 years in the ME ( military and contracting) and ptsd / TBI . Everyday is a challenge & can tell you the only reason I’m even still here is my wife & dog . I’m so happy these episodes are getting out there so people know their not alone .
May God bring you peace and quick healing yalls my 2nd most respected people on earth 🌎 other than GOD ❤️🙏🏻 THANKS FOR YALLS SERVICE AND SACRIFICES 🙏🏻❤
My daughter is 19. THIS MARINE is who I want her to emulate. Not the Kardashians. Young women have a role model in Off. Daisy Romero. So grateful for her service. 🇺🇸
Having watched dozens of vets tell their story I found this one so profound and my admiration for this lady , her courage , her strength, her resolve and her humanity so inspiring. She's a real warrior.
She’s a hard Mfer! And humble (she said she doesn’t rate) nothing but respect! Her interview was full of memorable and heartfelt quotes “I’m walking in the footsteps of giants”. Her boots have been there, done that. Thanks to you as well Urban Valor for providing this platform to give these testimonials. Much love to you bro, Semper fi
Everyone in the U.S needs to watch this to know what people sacrifice at the time and after even more. Daisy is an amazing lady with more balls than the next gen
As a fellow Mexican American. It's incredible to see people, more importantly a women, like miss Romero share their stories. I was denied the opportunity to serve my country because of my bad decisions as a teen. But now as a father of a beautiful baby girl, I will show this to her when she grows old enough to understand it all. To understand that no matter the circumstances life puts you in. You can achieve great things in life. Whether it be by following in miss Romeros footsteps into the military. Or anything else in civilian life she may choose to do. You're an inspiration miss Romero to me and all our raza all around the world. God bless you and thank you for your service 🇺🇸
I follow Daisy Romero on social media because to me she is the picture of resilience. I loved seeing her journey to Warrant Officer a few years ago. I believe we were in the same unit in Okinawa and we share mutual friends. I had to watch the full episode after seeing a short clip. Daisy, you are the type of leader we don't deserve but desperately need. Thank you for your contribution.
Warrant Officer Romero is a stellar example to all of us as to what true courage, compassion and leadership looks like. As a former active duty Marine, given the chance I would be proud as hell to serve under her command. Semper Fi ma'am.
I basically stumbled upon this site. As a former Marine grunt I honestly was a loud voice against putting female Marines in combat. This young Marine humbled me and put me in my place. I have struggled like her with issues. I closed my mouth and opened my ears. She has a lot to say and learn from. Quite a leader and mentor. She has re- motivated me to live life as my true self. Semper Fi Marine you are one the giants we walk with. I hope and pray you have a wonderful,great and joyous life. You're an incredible inspiration.
No one talks about how bad the FETs are for unit cohesion. The FETs are not self-sustaining, the other Marines have to come back from patrol and dig their latrines for them, do everything else for them, and it kills the dynamic of that unit that must support them.
@joelglanton6531 I don’t understand, female marines can’t dig with a shovel? Do you mean the way they are used/integrated is not cohesive? Seriously asking.
OMG THE 1st THING I WANT TO SAY IS SEMPER FI. THIS YOUNG LADY MIGHT BE THE GREATEST MARINE IVE EVER SEEN. IM JUST BLOWN AWAY AT HER PROFESSIONALISM. MY MARINE CORP TIME WAS NOTHING IN COMPARISON. I JUST WANT TO HUG THIS WOMAN
Daisy reminds me of my 2nd wife, a mustang officer, army nurse, combat veteran, she was a bad ass, small but mighty, retired as a Major. Im so proud of her til this day. We need more Jos' and Daisys'.
Glad you made it home alive. Thank you for your service. I deal with 2 tbi and ptsd myself. I deal with the migraine headaches, vertigo and auditory issues relating to my tbi. Please don’t hesitate to get help for everything you deal with. God Bless!
I'm so sorry to hear that I assume your tbi was combat related. Thank you for your service and we'd love to hear your story if you ever want to tell it. 🙏
"I didn't want to be no punk!" Classic! So brave to take on this men-centric challenge. So inspirational. Can't imagine living in fear in her own barrack. That's so messed up. " "I didn't say anything after the TBI because I didn't want to get pulled out of the fight. I didn't want to diminish our capabilities" The worst one wasn't our interpreter getting blown up in our vehicle with the entire front of his body gone..... The worst one was the guy in front of me getting blown up after stepping on a pressure plate. The entire first layer of my skin on my face was burned off. "It was just another TBI." What a tough, smart, beautiful war hero. Don't tell me women shouldn't serve in combat. Thank you for your service. And you continuing sacrfice.
@@VanessaG06 I’m not saying literally. I’ve talked to many vets that described their time overseas or firefights being referred to “I’ve fired a a few shots, or been to a few places.” Humbleness.
FET teams are awesome! As a advisor in Combat Advisor in Afghanistan i worked with a few. I was in RC north and trained the AUP and at thet time I entragated Afghan women into training with the men and needed a FET to help. And talk about some great womem. Having multiple head injuries sucks that is one of the reasons why I was medically retired. And as a older person who joined back up in 05 at 45 and as a former Marine and now in my 60s and having cluster headaches still from them once in awhile sucks but I've learned to live with them. God bless this great Marine.
@Slayer6936 I took was diagnosed with cluster headaches. In 1997 a neurologist in Masawa AB Japan finally called it that. I had a 17yr history of severe pain. He turned me on to breathing 100% oxygen. 7 to 8 liters. Works. No more pain drugs that make you loopy. Wish you well in your future endeavors. Retired AF E7 in "97". Now I'm labeled a hostel Patient at the VA. They didn't want to fund the home oxygen. Drugs they gave me that dayincreased the headaches.
@goatram1 I moved to the mtns and live at 5k feet, and as soon as I moved up here in 2 months, they pretty have gone away. I get one every once in a while, but not like before. They gave me sumatripton in sa self infected pen deal, and they actually worked! But I refused to take the COVID SHOT and couldn't use the VA for anything. But I was on Community Care thanks to Trump, so I never have to use the VA because they really suck. I moved outside of 50 miles of a VA so I don't have to use them.
This message is for all those serving now or in the future reading this, any injuries you receive while serving make sure you get it documented in your medical record. This is so you can get it treated when you get older, because it catches up to you.
Incredible and inspirational story from an Dynamic, incredible Leader of Marines. I count myself blessed and honored to have served with you!! There’s no ceiling that can limit you Motivator!!
I learned more ftom this woman, than all of the other interviews together. I never joined, but I was a cop. And back then, PTSD was just a Viet Nam combat vet thing. I thiught I had nothing to complain about. In my fifties, I find out what childhood trauma was. I still am existing in a box, within a cage. Maybe by seventy, I'll understand half of me. But I do care about you all.
America is a great place to live and I am proud because of people like this young Lady. The spirit and drive and intelligence and character make me humbled and grateful. What a Lady. He parents are proud and so are we. Salute.
that hit hard when she talks about not being able to lift anymore because she sees Matt there with her. This was a great interview thanks for sharing . S/F
It's easy to see that Daisy is reliving everything that she went through, and that it takes a lot of effort fir her to focus on the task at hand while still wirking through what she went through. As the person talking with Daisy shared with her, she is a Warrior. I tip my hat to you in respect and honor Daisy, from one Marine to another.
Oh wow, your story has me speechless. But what truly grabbed me was your observations on our increasingly isolationist culture and the need to hold on to humanity. ❤ Thank you for your service!
I served with Daisy, we were both station on Camp Courtney with 3rdMARDIV (she was in the G4 I was in the G2) I am happy who that young CPL became. I didn't know she had deployed until I saw her at 29 Palms for pre deployment training ( I was also on the same deployment just with a different unit, 2BN/3MAR, FOB Geronimo, Nov2010-Jun2011). I didn't see her again (Professionally, still followed each other on social media). Until I saw a post on Instagram of this Story, I welled up with Pride knowing I was in the presence at some point in my career with a great one. We both had different experiences on our tours, but the Demons are the same.....Semper Fidelis Daisy Romero.
That's a wonderful tribute to Daisy Romero. It's amazing how connections can last a lifetime, even after different paths and deployments. Semper Fidelis to both of you for your service and experiences.
Daisy, you are a real role model for all of us! Especially for younger women that today really needs strong women's to look up at. In Sweden we call your special breed "Sköldmör". A woman who knows her value, she can be an sister-in-war and fight fearsome beside you. But which at the same time can bring life, be a caring and loving mother or siter who gives hope and love. I give you my deepest respect, I wish you all happiness in the future.
All my love and admiration is sent to you my beautiful little sister. Please, do me a favor and love yourself more every day. You are so worth that effort. You will help future combatants in ways you could never guess. Thank you for sharing the pain and I also must say..congratulations on keeping your emotions in check, I don't know that I could have done any better. You set a fine example of what being a marine is..male or female.
I’m currently trying to commission in the Marine Corps through Norwich, got my application done and waiting to go to MEPs, if I ever get the privilege of being a 2nd Lt. I hope I get NCOs like her to learn from.
Thank you for your service and for sharing your story, Daisy! You’re an amazing person and I hope you continue to heal and help others do the same. Keep fighting the good fight!
It's all propaganda with the tougher than the rest. Do you think a Marine truck driver is tougher than a Navy SEAL or a Army paratrooper? You want a challenge become a paratrooper. When that door opens up and you hear the scream of the engines and the wind, you will find out what you're made off when you step into blackness.
@@Manbunmen65 ....She is tougher then you are. As a Marine she went through a harder boot camp then the Army Paratrooper or Navy Seal did. Also, as a female she couldn't even sign up for that. When I was in boot camp we had a prior service Army guy that had been Ranger qualified and had jump wings that quit after 3 week at Parris Island. How about you just thank her for her service to this Nation and shut your pie hole about how bad ass you think yourself is.
@@Manbunmen65 ... ok... so. She never said that, and if you can't recognize that all of recruiting no matter what branch is propaganda that's literally the point. Also I would say that this toughness bullshit is a load of crap, I personally wouldn't compare a green paratrooper with a truck driver who has combat experience. (Last U.S Army airborne Combat jump was 2003)
@@Manbunmen65 HAHAHAHAHA I was in the Marines, got out and went in the 82nd. Shut the hell up. It isn't difficult to jump. Airborne School is one of the easiest military schools I've been to. Jumping is only a way to get to work, anyway.
What a great woman. I love how she smiles while remembering her friends and how she still honours them. She said she still talks to them. That’s amazing. No false bravado or bullshit. Just straight forward. Seems like a sweet woman. Maybe a little nervous about being in camera. Great interview.
She is so incredibly brave and amazing for not only her contributions to the Marine Corp and the country as well as her fellow Marines, but how forthright and honest she is about her experiences both overseas and at home, facing her demons like alcohol, TBI loss. The Military needs more women like her.
Thank you for sharing your stories. It's always great to hear the sister in arms come into the spot light. It's a reminder that our sisters are warriors too. I think you are blessed with a guardian angel🙏🏼🕊and now you have many more to continue to watch over you and your fellow Marines. Continue to take care of yourself and caring.
This is why America Loves her Marines. I Grew up listening to WWII, and Korean Vets. When the conversation got down in the chit it was normal to hear the Army guy's say thing like "but it wasn't as fucked-up as the Marines had it. I'm not going to say one branch is better than the other, but Marines thrive on being Marines. It's screwed up how fucked up things can be. I am extremely proud of you. You are a hell of a woman, one hell of a Marine. Daisy I pray you find lasting peace, inner peace. Semper-Fi
HELL YEAH!!! True influencer! No joke, a true professional and great leader to work with! A great loss for the enlisted but an epic win for the officer side 😂
What an example of a fine American warrior; loving her comrades, suffering from her wounds and coming out the other side to become an officer. What a leader.
Way to go Ms Romero. Sorry don't know your rank now. I agree with you about compassion to others and leadership by example. The surviving the fight is the fight in and undo itself. It's nothing to be ashamed. It's you giving the testimony to the future marines. Let alone teaching how others gave to you with their ultimate sacrifice. Now you are giving to the young Marines that you can deplete the enemy by being alive. Your living proof makes the marine corp stronger in the long run. Not to mention few people are triple purple heart earners. let alone someone who stays in the service. What I like about you is, it tells the story to our adversaries. You can blow me up, but I'm still here. You learned about appropriateness after the battle and taught it to others. That means we don't ever give up in our Marines. Thank you for everything you've done I believe it has a direct cause and effect on saving other marines lives down the road.
Thank you for your service much respect for you! Sending prayers and healing to you!! You need to find a energy healer. Someone to help clear your energys. Im sure you suffered soul loss . The soul steps out when your trama is at more then you can handle. Thats why you don't rember everything for couple days. And you are right you made it out because it wasn't your time. We make that contract before we are born.
I've watched about 6 of these videos you've made. They are great. I was in the army but never went to war. I'm not sure if I'd be a coward or a hero.. I haven't been in that situation yet.
I think she was in Sangin when my buddies were there. They left 2/5 to extend and deploy with 3/5. Two of them lost their legs. She’s kinda a badass Sangin was no joke
They extended their deployment? Dudes didn’t know when to quit and now don’t have legs? Brilliant. Sometimes you just gotta step back and take a break.
@@MsRotorwingsthey extended their contracts to deploy in a combat zone. It’s war people have to go and some have to die and get wounded. I’d rather have the guys who extended contracts and want to be there next to me trading lead with the enemy than the guy who doesn’t want to be there at all
been watching LOTS of vet interviews and couldn't find many for women vets. which understandable! but as a woman i really want to know a womans pov of war and going into war. This woman rocks! wow she is very amazing!
Respect to this young lady and Marine. I hope she continues to reach out for help and keep healing.. A lot to recover from. Last point, the Corp has a lot to change and improve regarding man management. one example , when attachments are sent back alone to a parent station. This needs to change. Embed with ur adopted unit for perhaps 3 months. God bless all
Great interview,this is quite the story.Hopefully she writes a book I would love to read it,one tough person.The places she lived I think joining up was the best thing to happen to her besides being born

(Last U.S Army airborne Combat jump was 2003)
@@Manbunmen65 HAHAHAHAHA I was in the Marines, got out and went in the 82nd. Shut the hell up. It isn't difficult to jump. Airborne School is one of the easiest military schools I've been to. Jumping is only a way to get to work, anyway.
What a great woman.
I love how she smiles while remembering her friends and how she still honours them.
She said she still talks to them. That’s amazing.
No false bravado or bullshit. Just straight forward. Seems like a sweet woman.
Maybe a little nervous about being in camera.
Great interview.
True warrior, Semper Fi! Please continue mentoring our Marines.
She is so incredibly brave and amazing for not only her contributions to the Marine Corp and the country as well as her fellow Marines, but how forthright and honest she is about her experiences both overseas and at home, facing her demons like alcohol, TBI loss.
The Military needs more women like her.
Thank you for sharing your stories. It's always great to hear the sister in arms come into the spot light. It's a reminder that our sisters are warriors too. I think you are blessed with a guardian angel🙏🏼🕊and now you have many more to continue to watch over you and your fellow Marines. Continue to take care of yourself and caring.
Thank you 🤙🏼🇺🇸👊🏼
Success radiates from you Marine, thank you for everything
I was stationed in Iwakuni with then SSgt Romero. She ran my LCpls Course Seminar Semper Fi!
That's awesome! Thanks for your service Kenneth!
Much Respect Marine! 👊
Thank You for your service and May God Bless You and Keep You Always!
🙏✝️🇺🇸🕊️
Thank you for your service ma’am. The country loves you for it even if some of them forget it.
She’s badass. A true Marine.
This is why America Loves her Marines. I Grew up listening to WWII, and Korean Vets. When the conversation got down in the chit it was normal to hear the Army guy's say thing like "but it wasn't as fucked-up as the Marines had it. I'm not going to say one branch is better than the other, but Marines thrive on being Marines. It's screwed up how fucked up things can be. I am extremely proud of you. You are a hell of a woman, one hell of a Marine.
Daisy I pray you find lasting peace, inner peace.
Semper-Fi
HELL YEAH!!! True influencer! No joke, a true professional and great leader to work with! A great loss for the enlisted but an epic win for the officer side 😂
LOVED seeing her in the 248 Birthday Message this year
You are very special in every way. This world needs you. Is a better place with you. This testimony every one needs to hear .
What an example of a fine American warrior; loving her comrades, suffering from her wounds and coming out the other side to become an officer. What a leader.
Thank you for your strength in service ❤💜
Prior Marine 88-92 and Navy 00-09 with 15 months as an Individual Augmentee to the Army in Afghanistan. This Devil Dog is spot on.
Daisy, you are an amazing human being.
Way to go Ms Romero. Sorry don't know your rank now. I agree with you about compassion to others and leadership by example. The surviving the fight is the fight in and undo itself. It's nothing to be ashamed. It's you giving the testimony to the future marines. Let alone teaching how others gave to you with their ultimate sacrifice. Now you are giving to the young Marines that you can deplete the enemy by being alive. Your living proof makes the marine corp stronger in the long run. Not to mention few people are triple purple heart earners. let alone someone who stays in the service. What I like about you is, it tells the story to our adversaries. You can blow me up, but I'm still here. You learned about appropriateness after the battle and taught it to others. That means we don't ever give up in our Marines. Thank you for everything you've done I believe it has a direct cause and effect on saving other marines lives down the road.
🙏
Thank you for you service. Your awesome.
She needs to know that's she's not alone. The rest of us need to step up and just listen to her and all the rest.
What an amazing woman
Thank you for your service much respect for you! Sending prayers and healing to you!! You need to find a energy healer. Someone to help clear your energys. Im sure you suffered soul loss . The soul steps out when your trama is at more then you can handle. Thats why you don't rember everything for couple days. And you are right you made it out because it wasn't your time. We make that contract before we are born.
I've watched about 6 of these videos you've made. They are great. I was in the army but never went to war. I'm not sure if I'd be a coward or a hero.. I haven't been in that situation yet.
Thank you for sharing your life experience. Your story has been very powerful.
I think she was in Sangin when my buddies were there. They left 2/5 to extend and deploy with 3/5. Two of them lost their legs. She’s kinda a badass Sangin was no joke
They extended their deployment?
Dudes didn’t know when to quit and now don’t have legs?
Brilliant.
Sometimes you just gotta step back and take a break.
@@MsRotorwings When people are out there dying that's how it is sometimes, you don't want to sit back when you can get back out there and help.
@@MsRotorwingsthey extended their contracts to deploy in a combat zone. It’s war people have to go and some have to die and get wounded. I’d rather have the guys who extended contracts and want to be there next to me trading lead with the enemy than the guy who doesn’t want to be there at all
This woman has been through hell. She's really tough.
She’s a very strong woman, I agree with you 💯
God bless your heart and keep up the camaraderie. Semper Fi Daisy!
been watching LOTS of vet interviews and couldn't find many for women vets. which understandable! but as a woman i really want to know a womans pov of war and going into war. This woman rocks! wow she is very amazing!
She should get a Medal of Honor just for her own experience of service
Another Great Video 👍 Great content, keep up the great work!
Thank you Daisy for your service to protect us in this great country!
🙏
I have worked jobs Side By Side with women and they have made me proud to have known them! ✌️❤️🙏
Wow, the whole package, a true Marine, a leader. Suck it up, embrace the suck, and drive on! Semper Fi Marine!
I worked Law Enforcement and My Brothers and Sisters I made in this Field Of Employment are still my Family! ❤️
Thank you for your service. I'm from your same stomping grounds of LA, HP and Downey.
Ditto.
Wow. I went to school with her back at camp Johnson. Just wow
What a brave Woman, God bless this American Hero!
Thank you and God bless 🙏🏼
Wow, what an impressive young lady, God has blessed you and thank for sharing your story…
Respect to this young lady and Marine. I hope she continues to reach out for help and keep healing.. A lot to recover from. Last point, the Corp has a lot to change and improve regarding man management. one example , when attachments are sent back alone to a parent station. This needs to change. Embed with ur adopted unit for perhaps 3 months. God bless all
Daisy your a legend,God Bless
you🍀
0431!!! She is a true warrior! And she is a living example of what young women should aspire to! Semper fidelis!
Don't let his cowardice make you feel less of a woman.Tu eres una mujer cariñosa fuerte Y CHINGONA!!!!
She is awesome
Absolute boss
Great interview,this is quite the story.Hopefully she writes a book I would love to read it,one tough person.The places she lived I think joining up was the best thing to happen to her besides being born
Every true warrior has an Angel protecting them, for reasons unknown - till it’s time. If you know war, eventually you realize you know faith.
Wow what a woman god bless you, great interview ❤
