- Raiders are the Special Operators within Marine Raider Regiment of MARSOC, the Marine Special Operations Command, which is the Marine Component of USSOCOM. Raiders are some of the most disciplined and well trained operators in the world…
This video is a part of the “What is” / “Explainer” playlist for Special Operations units. I plan to highlight essential pieces of Unclassified information about the most important Units within the Special Operations community. My goal is to make each video plus or minus 3 minutes.

My son was a MARSOC Raider who was killed last year. He exemplified everything shown here and loved what he was doing . They are the best we have.
I'm sorry for your loss and I thank you and your son for his ultimate sacrifice.
I’m sorry for your loss. God Bless your Son & Family. Semper Fi forever
@@devilmancryu402 Thank you for your kind words and condolences sir. Much appreciated.
Semper Fi Dad and too your son.
@@jonjohnson3865 Thank you sir. These messages mean a lot to me even 18 months after his death.
If anybody wants to know more about Raiders there is a guy named Nick Koumalatsos who is a former Raider as well as a recon marine. He's a pretty cool guy and I enjoy his youtube channel .
I know this guy. His channel is amazing too.
provide link please
@@psaiprateek1417 just search on RUclips "nick koumalatsos" hes a Greek guy with long hair and a beard, hard to miss
@AOMechMarine AOMechMarine Like... SGM Sixta ? I was so disappointed, I love his character in Generation Kill
Nick Koumalatsos USMC CSO Ret. Is That Mfing Dude. OOH RAH MARSOC Marine Raiders!!!
Retired out of the Marine Corps in 1970, Wounds suffered in Vietnam! Semper Fi!
Thank you for your service. Salute to you! 🇺🇸
Don't forget to mention that you've gotta have some time in the Corp before being able to qualify or attend Selection
Im pretty sure the navy is in there with officials . some that just crawled out of the ground as postal clerks and are in the running for upper rank
AOMechMarine AOMechMarine you have to be in the corps 3 years before you can attempt at being Marsoc
AOMechMarine AOMechMarine bitch apparently you think you know everything. You’re partly right but it is 3 years and at least being a corporal, which 3 years is all it should take you to pick up corporal. Also I am a marine so get your facts straight before you start assuming things
And your chances of getting into MARSOC are much, much, much higher if you are in Recon first.
@Vic Viquor Anyone can go, dudes from my BTN went and they were fuelers.
Semper Fi to all my brothers. Past, present and future
I’m going in the marines going 0311 then volunteering for 0321 it’s my dream and passion to be a recon marine or just a marine period
Jupiter HieghtZ I plan to go to the marines when I grow up and am 18
@@edisodd4240 goodluck dude be sure to condition before BMT
I'm off to Paris Island in a little over a year.
Oorah
My dream is to be a marine, but being a raider would make me feel proud of myself, I believe that I can do it!
That's what I like to hear
Time to make that dream a reality there bud, I got a bunch recruiter friends.
Nathan Pedneault hey I’m going in as 0311 then volunteering to be 0321 at the split then I might go raider idk recon is what I want more than anything I wish us god speed in making our dreams happen stay strong brother and don’t give up
@Don Baumann yes sir, " speak softly and and carry a big stick".
Being a grunt should be enough to instill pride, but for what it's worth, I believe in you as well.
Further Reading: "Always Faithful, Always Forward" by Dick Couch, it covers the birth, pipeline, and deployment of the unit.
You literally made this video at the perfect time, I just started looking into the marine raiders last night
How did it go for you buddy?
I would like to hear more about joint special operations and how the various US special operations forces with differentcultures compliment and sometimes clash with each other in a future video.
I had an...interesting relationship with the special operations forces of the United States, including the Marines, when I was serving in Afghanistan, so I’d be very interested in hearing the opinions of someone who’d actually been and seen of us Canucks. We tried so hard (or I did, at least), so I’d like to hear from someone outside the CAF what the opinion of us was.
Like always, well detailed and straight to the point video. . Could you please cover all the rest of the army schools (ex. Sapper, Pathfinder, Jumpmaster, SOTIC, etc. ?
@@V.B.Squirethe American military has those schools now
I am humble by today's units in special operations, make's an old man wish for younger days.
In your day it was still very intense.
Wow, wow they are so versatile, the tip of the sword, the special guys.
My grandfather was in WWII 6th marine division. I have good memories of him.
RIP gp Bowne.
Thanks for explaining this group. I’ve want to me be Raider and watching this video really gave me a morale boost. Love your videos keep up the great work.
Interesting. Learning a lot just from a game. 'Combat Mission, Shock Force 2.' JTAC, FOs, Operations and such. I love learning warfare and tactics. Marines are looking more and more interesting. I've always been an Airborne Rangers fans, since I was a kid.
Godspeed!
Can you do Special Operations Forces videos on the following five units?
-Regimental Reconnaissance Company
-Delta Force
-SEAL Team Six
-Force Reconnaissance
-Scout Snipers
Thank you Gentlemen for all of your sacrifices for this great country.
Another informative & intetesting video - keep posting brother...thank you
MARSOC are so badazz. Great video. "Today will be different".
Yeees🤙🏻💪🏻 been waiting for this one
Brother can you do Force Recon?
Great video!!! Waiting for new video about firearms and weapons u used in your past!
Could've went regular infantry or any other job in the Marine Corps
I think I've watched this video 5 times. I wish there were more videos and articles on marsoc marine raiders.
Good work and beautifully presented.
Thank you for making this video :)
Cool video. You should make a video about how the Army CID operates or NCIS
Guys I SO WISH I had known about this when I was in 2005-2010. I went in trying to be aircrew (I wanted to be hanging out the side of a helicopter layin’ down hate like I saw the guy do in full metal jacket), but after a long time waiting for a spot to open up for me to ship out, my recruiter met with me and told me that I didn’t qualify for aircrew because of my eyesight (which I later found out was a lie) so I needed to pick something else to do. I said “what’s my next best option?” He said “be a mechanic, you can maintain the helicopters and still catch rides on them when they move from place to place.” So I joined the Corps with a 6000 series MOS intent on working on hueys and cobras (I wanted to be close to the action), and lo and behold they stuck me with F/A-18’s. When I checked into the fleet I quickly realized that my job was gonna suck and the overall atmosphere of my command was just shitty and unmotivated. I stuck out like a sore thumb running a 290 PFT and making meritorious rank. Also, my unit had just returned from its last deployment to Iraq right before I checked in and the wing General made the decision to pull our aircraft out of combat operations rotation and only be used for training missions. Long story short, I was able to deploy twice, but not to combat, so unfortunately I was never able to participate in OIF or OEF, which really sucks now since both of those wars are over. Overall I’m proud of my service and I made E-5 in 5 years, but I realize now that had I known about MARSOC, I totally totally TOTALLY would have gone that route. Also, I would have STAYED IN because I actually enjoyed my job. I’m 34 now and it’s hard to believe that I would be starting my 17th year of service next month had I stayed in. The air wing is not the real Marine Corps and it has more in common with the Navy than it does the rest of the corps (at least on the F/A-18 side). Anyway, take a cautionary tale from me...if you like doing “Marine shit”, DON’T JOIN THE AIR WING cause you will be sorely disappointed!
What were the normal day to day duties you would do, any highs/cool shit you would do at all? I’m 03 and 5% wants yo reenlist, but I would want a change of scenery
As far as I know all Marine Raiders are seasoned Marines.. There are not any SF 18X style contracts or Ranger enlistment contracts like in the Army... Also, I thought it was interesting that all team leaders were Captains and not lieutenants... (According to the video).. Very interesting.
I like that story, I hope that city is doing well today!
Only if i could do it all over again... I would go all out for this.As a civilian now i have helped many people get off drugs and build purpose in life.Thank. the Marines for making me the man I am.
Would be interested in hearing your take on Force Recon
Roofer360 Recon isn’t apart of the Special Operations community
@@Crusader_Raider But they are special operations capable.
Brown Eye but some would argue they are a cut above most SOCOM
Force Recon was invited to join the ranks of SOCOM but Gen. Grey refused to let them. In terms, direct action, a Force Reon Marine can hold their own against a Raider CSO
@@challenger-mb5jd who
Heard from somewhere that Marine Raiders are the most fearsome warriors you've ever asked for. Totally the tip of the spear.
@scotiansen that's a good point actually
@scotiansen Apples and Oranges. From what I understand, DevGru is tier 1. Raiders are tier 2 alongside Army SF and SEALs and the like
Semper Fi always. Was a plank holder in the raider Bns c130 assult co.
Something more related to this video is SARC's (SOC) (MARSOC) Special Amphibious Reconnaissance Corpsman/Special Amphibious Raiders Corpsman. That be a good cover of information about these badasses you've have had to work with these awesome guys before in the military.
Hell yeah!
That's what i want to do in the navy hopefully he'll cover it
Great job here.Explaining here.
Another great video brotha
thank you for this video sir
Thanks for the information
Thanks for showing this😇.
Hey could you do one about air force cct's? I think it would be a cool area to cover
God bless you guys. Semper Fi
Hope you do one on Air Force CCT
Your friend is my hero 🇺🇸
Great job he’s an angel helping other souls am I wrong 🇺🇸⚓️
Very good videos you keep posting, is there anything I won't know about each SOPs without actually serving, haha?
You should do a video covering all of the Spec Forces units that make up SOCOM (if you haven’t already)
Can you make a video explaining all marine special units such as anglico, recon/force recon
Outstanding
Can you do a Special Operations Forces videos on Marine Corps Force Reconnaissance? I know they aren't part of SOCOM, but they were special operations capable. Plus, I think they make up most of MARSOC Raiders.
My respect too all.
Could you please make a video about marine recon, and force recon. Please thank and great videos.
Including 2 SARCS in the MSOT
You should do a video about Navy SARCs, since they're attached to MARSOC often
Excellent...
Very good Job bro 💀👊🏻
Thank you.
They are a bad ass stay behind network too. If they want you they WILL get you.💪
This is my goal marine raiders!!!!!!
That means you will have to become a top performing Marine.
Bangin Sangin..... 🙌🏼🤙🏼
My older brother a combat veteran served with the USMC in Vietnam. He mentioned while out in the bush at night when they would set up a perimeter. "Night Patrol" would slither out their foxholes barefoot with faces blackened wearing a boonie hat armed only with a .45 and a Ka-Bar. Then slither back in before sunrise with their ear necklace. Devil Dogs he would say.
The more I learn about the different Special Operations forces, the more confused I get, while at the same time enlightened. It's like you have this map and what you know is visible, and what you don't is all black, but the name of the destination is visible. What I know: (all to an extent) SEALs, Green Berets, PJ, and Force Recon, Rangers. This video(and ones like them) shed some light on parts I have no clue about, but now I'm confused how they all fit together, and why the overlap(if there is an overlap), and how they all fit into the bigger picture. Like, Ive heard of the Marine Raiders, but I did not know how they fit into MARSOC, but now I'm confused with what Force Recon is in comparison.
Unless you have already done it, I think a full length episode on US SOCOM pertaining to each SO group from each branch respectively would be pretty sweet.
The issue is that each element, ie - Army, Navy, Air Force and Marines have their own specialized units (SEALS, Raiders, SF, CCT's, etc) that have their own missions specific to their branch. However, under JSOC or Joint Special Operations Command and other of these types of organizations they bring together the various units and they work together on a specific mission. For example, a CCT may be assigned to a joint Delta/Seal team to provide close air support during the operation. He has the right communications equipment and know how to talk with the AF support birds and since he is an elite operator, he can hang with the joint team and not slow them down or jeopardize the mission.
Then more properly, a video of the SO groups of each branch separately rather than a full video. I know they work together at times. That aspect does not confuse me. Nether does the fact of why different branches have their own SO. It's the fact that they have multiple units(aside from Delta, or Team 6/DEVGRU(?)). More for my(and others) interests of knowledge on all things Military SO, rather than being someone who is confused and just don't/wont get it.
@@copperjarhead
Each branch of the military is massive. Even the smaller elements like the USMC still have 200,000 troops.
Each branch has it specialists to do certain jobs. Hence why their are Green Berets and Marine Raiders. They are going to be very similar because they exhibit the same unconventional space of warfare.
You will find that SEAL's and Marsoc are very similar in their capabilities but then you will find that there are Rangers who can do the exact same job.
It would not be possible to get Green Berets to go out and do the job for the Navy or Airforce. The resources required to do that would be insane.
Marsoc are members of SOCOM which means they are actually part of that command structure. Force Recon are an actual division in the USMC that are under the command of USMC.
The Navy has SEAL's that come under SOCOM as well but they also have such groups as EOD that are specifically under Navy control.
The key to all of this is that each branch gets to keep their own special operations force that they can rely on and are not at risk of being called away.
Does this make sense?
Hey, I’m new to the channel and it’s my dream to be a recon marine. Can you make a video of marine force recon please.
Please help with CCTs,PJs & JTACs next? No one seems to talk much about them
You got to do a video on battalion recon
Great😀😀😀
Do a video on RASP.
God bless The Raiders! Baddest of the bad!
Can you do a video on Air Force Combat Rescue Officers/PJs?
Semper Fi! 🇺🇸
I must do this
God Bless Marsoc.
Can you do a video on whos ranked number 1 seal team 6, delta, raiders?
Well never know LIASO’s face, but we do know that he’s a Green Beret, Ranger, Airborne Qualified and Air Assault qualified. He’s an invisible beast.
Can you fo a video on Navy SARCs? ( special amphibious reconnaissance corpsman)
It’s like a mix of SF and the seals.
SEMPER FI!!
1st Battalion is currently undergoing transition to NC, so by sometime in 2022, I think, they'll all be in Lejeune
Raiders are some crazy guys. I believe they’re the only ones now still doing direct action..
Col. littlestone, how about a clip on SARCs ?
Yeah! Docs need love too!
Can u do a video explaining Pathfinder School?
Did you ever work with PSYOP? I was hoping to get more info and find out if it is a good career path.
Hey it be awesome if you go over the USCG SOF aka MSRT sometime considering not much people go over them
It's a tier 2 SOF unit in the United States Coast Guard that is on par with Navy Seals but specialize heavily in boarding ships & hand to hand combat next to have each team member fill in a specific role like marksman/recon etc. Plus they can legal board forgein boats without styartingf wars so the DOD uses them when needed to help the navy.
@@julianperez5046 On par with SEALS eh
Please make video about Codename Johnny Walker book.
please do one about force recon
How about a video about the Rangers, please?
Do a marsoc vs rangers vid
Hey mate, very interesting videos you have here, I myself served across the pond in the UK SFSG but have recently got a US citizenship due to the wife being a Yank, looking at how I can serve my adopted nation now and SARC caught my info, any experience with those guys?
Welsh Superiority Pick a branch that suits you best and join up!
+Corey Williams
What age are you?
Marines have age limits for application. So does army and Airforce. Check to see which branch of the military appeals to you.
All US Special Operations select within their respective branch. Also consider the national guard as their can be officer opportunities within that.
My son is a recon marine E-5 on his way too trying out for the teams.. P.s.. The guy that has this channel sounds like K.J from "The scariest movie ever channel", I wonder if it is him..
How would they be compared and contrasted to 1) US Navy SEALS 2 UK Royal Marines Commandos, 3 UK SBS Special Forces thanks 🙏
Can officers join and if so, what’s their role in being a Raider?
Could you do one on recon?
they say a minimum 235 PFT score, but the physical hell you will go through in Raider training will require something closer to a 270 or better to have any realistic chance of getting through the training from from what I have been told and read about.
No score is going to prepare people for that. It really all comes down to the individual.
@@bighands69 not true. You never hear about Raiders, Recon, Scout Snipers, Drill Instructors or even newly commissioned officers getting a minimum of 235 on the CFT and PFT while preparing for and getting through selection.
I know recon isn’t part of Socom but can you please make a video about The recon marines please
Reconnaissance History... Marines from 1st Force Reconnaissance Company and SEALs from Naval Special Warfare Task Unit One attached to the 13th MEU execute Maritime Interdiction Operations/Visit Board Search and Seizure (MIO/VBSS) on the Iraqi Oil Tanker Amuriyah in October 1990.
The entire joint Force Recon/SEAL assault element was commanded by Admiral William H. McRaven (he would later command the DEVGRU assault of the Bin Laden Compound, but at the time of this mission he was a Lieutenant Commander). ADM McRaven chose the Force Recon Platoon as the lead assault element and his SEAL Platoon as the aerial QRF because “the best unit for the mission was the Marines, who were exceptionally well trained in close-quarters battle-the kind of skills we would need for this operation.”. A more detailed account of this mission is captured in ADM McRavens book ”Sea Stories”.
For the get score of 105 and the fitness score of 235 is that a retake or your original test for those
Is there anyway I could talk to you online in a chat room or something? I’d like to hear about your experiences and gather some more information about SF.
Feel free to send me a message using the messenger app at the bottom of my web site.
this sounds fucking awesome
Can you do a recon/force recon video?
HOLY S@#T THANK YOU!
Can you do a video on force recon
They are the best marines.
You should do usmc recon
