    As a 47 pilot very familiar with the operation of a big ol' tandem rotor helicopter, that 46 driver juuuust about stole the show. The precision at which he operated those flight controls fit perfectly alongside a demonstration of some of our Nation's most precise, lethal warriors. Badass video, Don. Would love to see more like this.

    Did you do another one of these a few years later? I distinctly remember seeing something just like this with my dad at little creek but it must have been a few years later, I was born in 96. I was pretty young but I’ll never forget seeing the SEALs coming out of the water and just thinking that was the coolest thing ever.

    I remember going to the CapEx demonstration on Ft.Bragg when I was about 11 years old, with Major Lynn Spurlin of the 82nd Airborne, his son Ashely and I are the same age and would each spend the summers with our Father's in Fayetteville. Ashley ended up an Air Force PJ. That was one of the highlights of my childhood going to see that.

    My dad was a medic during WW2. He earned the Bronze Arrowhead during the Normandy invasion. He served 4 years during WW2, and enlisted again in the Air Force during the Korean war. He retired after 21 years of service in the Air Force. My dad passed away in 1997. He would have turned 100 this coming July 4th. He never tried to force me or my brother to join the military, but looking back I really wish he had. Much respect to Don Shipey, and ALL who served!

    Once I reached my late 20’s and had developed an appreciation for the tenuous, fragile nature of our lives as human beings, I found myself easily affected by stories of courage and self-sacrifice. I looked up Senior Chief Thomas J. Valentine. He was only 37 when he died in the parachute training accident. He had a wife, a son, and a daughter. 😢
    He did multiple tours in Afghanistan and Iraq, earning a Silver Star, and three Bronze Stars (all with V device). What a badass.

    I was neighbors with Chief James "Patches" Watson, plank owner of Team 2. He gave me copies of his books and signed them for me the same year this was filmed, also gave me a Vietnamese death card that way i would have a book marker....Id ride my bike over to his house all the time, some occasions team guys would be packed in his garage visiting also. When his wife retired from Cummins they moved down to Ft. Pierce and he worked for the Seal Musuem. Unfortunately he passed away before I could reconnect with him, but you can still go to Little Jim's Bait & Tackle up the road from the Musuem and check out old stuff from the Teams. Miss you Chief, never forget the times we shared.

    Well done Sr. Master Sergeant I really enjoyed this vid. While a DS at Fort Benning in the early 1960s I had the pleasure to be an extra in the movie “The Green Berets”. Tried to attend every training that was open to the base soldiers. They built a Vietnam Village that was so real it was left for us to train many Basic Trainees who had the pleasure to serve our country during this war. Didn’t stay for 20 years but put in 10+ years, thank you for your service Senior Master Chief!!!
