The battle of Nasiriyah was unusual in that there were no American MIAs. Everyone was recovered, both those at the hospital and the crew of a missing Abrams that went into the Euphrates, plus the remaining live POWs who had been taken to Samara. The Marines who located the bodies at Nasiriyah Hospital, and the Rangers who retrieved them are absolute heroes. Glad you covered this.
So they we’re recovering American bodies, from the ambush of Jessica Lynch‘s unit?
Great interview. I was there with 101st CAB and when we heard over the radio that she had been rescued we all screamed and shouted with joy.
Hookstead, this is the part where you get it wrong, because - and don't take offense at this, the significance has to be explained to you - you were never a soldier.
I've been waiting for a long time for this story to start being told in the popular media because I want them to get it right. You're already off in the weeds with the sensationalized title.
The actions on the objective of B Co.1/75 is NOT ABOUT the horror. It's not about the sight, the smells, the memories that stay with you or the memories you block out or choose to forget. It's not about SSG Fader standing up the Col.
The soldier's interest here is that this is a soldier's story about duty, sacrifice and nobility. This is a story about living the Ranger Creed, the Ranger Creed that all soldiers, not just Rangers learn at Basic/OSUT, Infantryman and all others alike. Living the awful parts of the Creed at it's most unglamorous, it's unsexiest. Everyone thinks being a Ranger is all about running around, kicking down doors and shooting terrorists in the face, but being a Ranger is also about not for a moment hesitating, complaining and shirking, but swallowing hard and just doing what has to be done when something like this lands in your lap.
"Never shall I leave a fallen comrade to fall into the hands of the enemy.? These comrades were not fellow Rangers. The decaying, decomposing, disintegrating bodies of the men and women of that transpo company were regular soldiers. The charred remains of EXTORTION 17 and TURBINE 33 weren't even Army. But as fellow Americans who took the Oath, they WERE comrades and Rangers DO NOT leave fallen comrades in the field, dead or alive, buried or scattered, no matter their condition.
All soldiers learn and recite the Ranger Creed at some point in their training and it is a part of our ethos. The Rangers rightfully embody and live that ethos every day.
The story of the Jessica Lynch rescue is about the nobility of soldierhood in what the Rangers did that night DESPITE the horror, not the horror the things they did. If you're going to tell the story, get it right, Hookstead.
(I feel strongly about this because I've believed for a while that if we get this right, this will eventually become a story that is told to everyone as a part of the lore and legend in teaching the ethos of what it is to serve in the brotherhood of arms of the United States Army.)
We were digging up mass graves well into 2004. Some stretching 50 yards easy. Hearing David Nielsen speak of it I can smell his description to the point where I started to get the gagging relex kicking in again.
Great interview. Thank you for sharing.
The bodies he's talking about were the captured Soldiers from the 507th Maintenance Company they were moved one by one to a mass grave and shot in the head
10 year break in service. I’m at 8. I miss it, kind of want to go back
Same, I’m too worn out though…
You’ll probably regret it forever if you don’t. Trust your instincts. And if WWIII breaks out and they pull you back anyway you’d be in a better position if you went back before being called back.
@@hereticlife2546 possible, or look back and say “damn glad I didn’t have to go fight in X country for another pointless war.”
Prob miss the people and the camaraderie. It’s not that anymore. The culture post Desert Storm and OIF/OEF is not what it is today. IF I had to go, I’d make my way down to Texas or Florida and enlist there. I’d go Guard or Reserves to test the waters, support before being voluntold to go someplace I dont want to go.
I do understand camaraderie, I miss the type I experienced. But as a civilian, I have no idea what it was like for you men. It doesn’t matter how many combat vids I watch I never will. But I would say thank you, and you guys did your duty. Maybe it’s time to be thankful to be alive, and locate different areas in life that can be rewarding. I’ve seen what war did to my cousin. I just worry about you guys. Stay healthy mentally and physically.
The gentleman you ate interviewing. Sorry sir I didn't catch your name maybe I did but what's important is I truly see feel hear your pain .you sir are a true if I may I mean this in the upmost respect and honor. The damage your soul has taken the pain your eyes have recorded. I salute you
This guy keeps it real.
I am trying to pay attention, but i am not following. What bodies had to be dug up, U.S. troops, part of Lynch’s convoy, were they civilians? Not much was really covered about any details in this clip.
The people in her convoy that were killed were buried. I can’t imagine how grotesque it is, it’s not like digging up a intact, normal body. It would be like goop and fiber like muscle. He even said the bodies were coming apart when they would pick them up, and that’s putting it lightly. They’re just barely recognizable to a body at that point.
@@gannethackett9323 oh wow, my condolences and prayers on their souls, and their families.
The support unit that lynch belonged to was ambushed. Many soldiers were taken and executed 1 by 1, being shot in the back of the head. They were thrown into a big pile just a couple ft down
I was stationed at Ft Drum with Miller (who was an E6 at the time
Fort drum back then sucked
@@An_Enraged_Pig Sucked in 2017 when I was there lol. I forgot which section he was NCOIC in but he was a pretty cool dude to me. 210BSB B CO. I didn’t know that he was one of the ones who was captured until someone told me to look him up. Funny I would be stationed with him because my dad was responsible for the forward most patriot system during the invasion and was keeping the skies clear of scuds so Millers unit was a little safer with doing whatever it was they were doing leading up to their capture.
Andy Stumf talks in detail about that raid as he was also part of it
no he wasn't...he sat on a hillside with other Seals.
@@lennyj2080 Wrong- but that's to be expected from you. It is well documented and he is on video conducting dynamic entry. You never pulled the trigger and you grew up without a father- don't comment. Nobody cares what low-income, fatherless, kids think.
Very few Officer's are worth a SHIT!
You have to tear yourself away from the emotions that death brings in combat. It's the nature of the business that people are going to die in war, there's nothing we can do about it. It all has to do with luck.
That outlook doesn't shield u from trauma tho. Realitys gonna hit u like a ton of bricks either way.
Your mind and body will react naturally. Some people are more resilient than others
You know they let women in the infantry now
Wow. That guy is tough as balls. Rangers Lead The Way. RLTW.
Funny how the older you get the more introspective you get to the point where it’s annoying.
RLTW
Wasn’t there another black female that was taken along with Jessica ?
Yes
Shoshana Johnson is who you're referring to
@@shooter86-uw8ce they’re talking like if it was only Jessica lol
If I can give some constructive feedback…the direct stare into the camera is kinda distracting.
Positioning the camera to a angled profile and not directly staring into it would be better imo. Feels like you’re staring into my soul lol
Haha, oh god, I wish you hadn't pointed that out... I can see nothing else now. Haha.
Mean's you're weak
The army was a joke for doing what they did, she shouldn’t have been in that convoy, non of them should’ve. She was a 92Y Supply Clerk. Her MOS basically consisted of operating a filing cabinet and yet she was put in that convoy as a PFC too. Her weapon wasn’t fired once. It’s not her fault; it’s the people that sent her there. It shouldn’t have ever happened, absolute shit show of leadership.
Dude, you have no clue what you are talking about. This happened during the invasion kid. I was there in an infantry unit, we were leading the charge into Baghdad, but we only spearhead the advance. The support elements like her unit have to follow in after the combat elements. They are the VAST MAJORITY of the military forces actually in the ground. Fuel, ammo, food, supplies, etc. they still have to have weapons, training and defend themselves on the way in. They weren’t out there fuckin tracking down bad guys. They were just unlucky and got ambushed.
@@haveaday1812 Yeah no shit, she still was in charge of a filing cabinet. Army should of had the convoy with a SOF escort if it was so hot. The convoy took a wrong turn and got ambushed, if they would’ve had a actual escort and not a convoy of supply clerks they probably would’ve been fine.
@gannethackett9323 as the previous poster stated
You have no idea what the hell you are talking about
And you've clearly never served in the military
Go back to your call of duty and fortnite
I was a 52D( power generation repair) in OIF1, my rifle never jammed, never failed to fire. I cleaned it every night. Jessica Lynch was a coward, she hid in the vehicle while her team mates were killed.
One special forces operator can do more than a thousand standard infinity.
They can probably spell better as well...
Have ever been in combat? You can have every badge the Army can hand out and still get unlucky. Gunfights don't give a shit how much training one has.
@@danm.bagley5030 Yes! They do.
@@danm.bagley5030 Do you mean the Fort Hood shooter didn't care that the processing center was "a gun free zone?" Switzerland is not a gun free zone as you take your rifle home with you when you finish mandatory military training. They have a very low crime rate and the last time they were attacked Napoleon was alive!
I had to stop at 5 minutes. My god that was a snooze fest
And you’re gay
😂
Agreed, nothing was really said
Yeah. I learned that he doesn't like Marines. Something about Mike Tyson. SEAL team six was mean. PT shorts are Ranger panties......
Civilians in these comments: I wanna hear about cod and jason bourne, not digging by hand for the goopy remains of fallen soldiers
