No doubt. His reaction to thinking they were getting shot at at 7:55 is wild ….you would think you would need some reps and coordination to feel comfortable being shot at. But he reacts like it’s a game he’s been waiting his whole life to play I can see why higher ups who surveilled him nudged him down the path towards CAG/Delta….cause if you take a dude with his instincts and then polish him….you’re probably going to wind up with a great operator
I remember this time. In 7th Special Group, we were held back for a long time because the SOUTHCOM commander did not agree with losing their regional SOF Army component to CENTCOM for months at a time. We finally began to deploy to combat operations to Afghanistan in 2005. We had gone before, but only as individual augmentees to 3rd Special Forces Group during their deployments. In 2005, we started going in as a legit special operations task force.
Yeah i listened to John K. on another platform and then listened here, i have NOT listened to Brent Tucker elsewhere (just shorts) but THIS is badass. BT is giving us exactly what we want
He comes across as a quiet alpha which not all special ops guys do. Really enjoy his pleasant demeanor and humility. Don’t mistake my words, he’s not soft, but to me, the def of what you’re supposed to be.
Supported 7 SF in Kandahar. Did their VSAT comms in 2012. Great great great group of guys. Got us anything we needed or wanted, too include a gator and gas card. Made sure their shit was green all the time. Loved them. Oh yeah their DFAC rocked. Glad he's home. Thanks for the story. Made me remember it wasn't all bad. As weird as that sounds.
When u hit an objective and there is nothing of value there. Or atleast it doesnt have what u were hoping to find. Like... if the Bin Ladens house and he wasnt there... Thats a dry hole.
The Taliban were fierce warriors as well it sounds like. Imagine whatvthey fought against. The tip of the spears operators supported by hell from above and they still push forward and fight.
Imagine the bad guys seeing their buddies get mowed down by a ac130 trying to sneak up on the Americans and their boss looks at them and says ok you're next!! Go on up there!🤣🤣🤣
@@soopahsoopahsf dudes usually talk like this. Their jobs are intense and they all handle it differently. To them this is a job. If you trained for an important job for 3 years or 4 years, you'd be excited to put your skills to use for the first time as well. He's explaining it in a nostalgic way because it was his first, and left a lasting impression on him and how he'd be as a soldier. Not glorifying war lol.
This guy absolutely loved his job probably more than anyone I’ve seen in interviews. He was built for that life without a doubt

Brent, you're the best! You're not only a total bad ass, but you're humble, and a very talented communicator.
Agreed
Brent is a true warrior. American hero. Great interview.
Agreed. Glad you liked it!
Facts
I like the way he describes intense situations. “Apaches asking them to stop with hell fire missiles.” 😂😂😂
Brent is a legend. Warrior spirit through and through. Great interview brother 🤜🏽
Such a classy, smart guy. Great questions as well.
The BEST WAY to tell a combat story!!!

Thanks for listening Ryan!
Brett is the model for Calm, cool and collected
Glad to be here listening. such a powerful channel already. Id love a background episode on you someday.
Thank you for being here!

Wow, this guy is a great story teller!
He definitely is

Doesn’t sound weird at all, thanks for serving brotha
I admit our DFAC was awesome. Group put a lot of resources into our supporting elements.
Sanford FL in the house!!!
damn. not a military guy, but this dude is badass
Big time
If I'm the rookie and first out the ramp... just let me get off the X and pull security until the rest of the team get out, lol.
Grandad refused to speak about WW2...
I'm glad that Veterans now have _a Voice._
We call our soldiers warrior but Brent is a badass MF and a mans man. The military is desperately lacking men like him
He is becoming my favorite podcaster, antihero is the truth
Super enjoyable, i love his example!
dude said "WAR u and me have met" that sounds like a line from avengers
🤣
Make us a video game of all your missions. We want to play too
Great Episode. I am Buying Brents coffee!
You’ll love it!
18:00 - What are "dry holes"?
when they show up to a house or place they think the enemy is at but there's no one there
@@DaltonFischerPodcast Ahh ok, thank you.

True warrior - True Blue American!

Why blue?
Cluster
Smh
Wow another SF / Seal / Delta story. Never stops. All the stories sounds the same after a while.
Don't listen then, simple.
True, but the tip of the spear is only so many people/units we’re gonna get a lot of overlap.
Sorry not sorry - this dude is fucked up. the glorification of war is revolting.
Say someone who probably never saw military service or combat.
@@mrhrobinson And you would be wrong. This dude's undisguised glee for conflict no doubt made him an effective soldier - but it's still fucked up.
