“I NEVER WANT MY KIDS
LOOKING UP TO SOMEONE ELSE”
that hits hard
I've got my first due in two months. Man do I share this sentiment with you.
yeah!
And it should. Just imagine a world where more and more people felt that way and acted upon it.
300th liker
Yeah I got the chills on that one… time to step it up.
THIS is the type of video ads the military needs to invest in.
Exactly not that stupid ass woke bullshit
Wokeness is all the Army cares about now lol. Mark Milley would call all of these guys white supremacists and open an investigation on them.
@@JesusChrist2000BC honestly him, along with a multitude of other politicians wearing military uniforms, are simply agents for the deep state agenda. Its ridiculous whats happened to our military.
It literally said goarmy at the end dummy
@@judeathknowshisgun5290 Its not a military ad. In the description it even says that they are not affiliated with the 10th SFG
In June of 1968, at Fort Benning jump school, a Green Beret came over to a group of us who had just earned our 'silver wings' and asked us, who among us wanted to be their own boss. Long story short: 10th SFG, 5th SFG and MACV-SOG. Glad to be alive. Once a Special Forces soldier, always a Special Forces soldier. Seventy-three now and keeping my skills sharp. Sneaky Pete...
Lee Burkins, Author of 'Soldier's Heart: An Inquiry of War'
Thank you for your service sir. I’ll try my best to make myself useful to this amazing country. My worst fear is failing what I tried so hard to accomplish. I really want to be a green beret. I don’t know if I have what it takes yet.
always forward De Oppresso Liber
My dad was 5th group too
@@sedicibrah2025 don't have to be SF to serve. Anyone in the forces are serving. Doesn't matter if you are just a grunt, you are still serving.
Mac-v sog. You are a warrior. Thank you sir
This speaks the cold hard truth.
It does. The civilian world is honestly terrifying. It never felt like my calling to stay in the average path of life.
@@keith789 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼 I’m going for a SEAL contract….
Absolutely!
Without mind of peace everywhere is hell
When I decided to start training for selection it was last March. I am putting my packet together as we speak for October. Dreamed of being a Green Beret since I was a kid. Time to make that shit my reality. Great video!
Edit * Thanks for all the support. My packet has been completed and sitting on the SF recruiters desk. Just waiting for fiscal year 22 to open up and I’ll be classed. I wish all of you the best as well in everything you do.
***** Update 6/08/2022 12:45PM *****
I collapsed a couple of weeks prior to report date. Not a heat injury but apparently I have holes in my heart and an enlarged atrium. Long story short, I’m being medboarded and currently waiting on ratings. I never replied because I’m devastated of the outcome of me wanting to pursue my dreams. Thanks for all the support and I pray everyone one of you gets selected and makes it through.
Go to work. I’m right behind you
I feel that. Just submitted my enlistment papers. Just waiting on my waivers.
Best of luck brother! Training my ass off to hopefully get an 18x contract next year

That line "I never wanted a normal life I never wanted a normal job" really hits, having to work at the office routinely is like being a drone loyal to a company that leeches your life
6 months and 1 day into my military career. I graduated Airborne school at 9am this morning. Completed all five jumps and I volunteered for RASP a week ago.
youre the man, stay safe.
Como fue?
5 and a half months into my career, 3 more weeks to go for my course til i become an infantry qualified soldier
Worldwide or batt boi?
How did it go ?
Every now and then, when my mind is fogged up, i come here, look at this video, and remind myself that this lifestyle saved my life…
Inspiring even after retiring... Best recruiting video I have seen for us. RLTW/DOL
My son shared this with me I'm terrified but he wants to do this, it's in his soul.
@@TruTube.1. my son has a 3.8 GPA and goes to a top rate high school so I don't think that's necessary. To assume that he would have a low GPA just because he wants to go into the military is quite folly on your part.
@@TruTube.1. don’t project your insecurities onto others. I hope you find a way to get that out of your heart. Stay safe, and always move forward
@@TruTube.1. U got some personal issues to deal with m8, Leave the lady and her son alone
@@cindyyoder1160 as someone who did his time and deployed multiple times, hope your son makes it. There will always be weak men and women who will try and stand in his way. Stomp them to the ground and walk over them.
I was at a very low point in my life. Watching this video motivated me so much to work out and get out of my funk and dream of joining the army to be a ranger. The song the video the quotes, brought me to tears and made me more humble towards being a proud American. Thank you to all the men and women who have serve and are serving on our armed forces.
you can do whatever you set your mind to. good luck on your journey
I literally am in the same spot as you. November was a bad month for me, but im now going to be a ranger too brother
All the best! Go out there and be great! Hoah!!
You gotta train everyday and you gotta want it more than anything hard work and dedication is how you make it. You got this fuck being normal be a fkn savage
did you do it
This should be a super bowl commercial. Super motivating and inspirational.

I've never heard words hit so close to my heart, this is exactly why I'm leaving my career and degree behind and joining the army as a ranger.
fck yes brother!!!
currently 11C prepping for selection. These words speak truth to how I feel... I’m watching this every day until my dream is a reality. Thank you for this
That’s awesome, man! Are you following any specific training plan?
How’d it go?
Same it's time to chase my dream
I deployed to Ubon AB, Thailand, and operated with the 10th SFG. "Great Warriors!" January 1, 1993 -December 18, 1993. Be All You Can Be ❤ in the US ARMY
I regularly come and watch this video to reaffirm my path in life. Be the man you want your kids to surpass.
30 years ago I swore my oath, nothing like earning that tab and donning that beret, yet that video gave me chills. #longtab, #18e, #scoutrider #H.A.L.O., #Sniper
Respect man, did you go to Sniper School or SFSC?
43 years ago. 10/1/b
@@CarHubTalk I went to a course put on by my group which was run by graduates of S.O.T.I.C.
OORAH!
amazing!
The one person who disliked this video is the person who got kicked out of SFAS for not putting out and working in a team, and then went on to say horrible things about the community on the internet and to his peers. Weak-link
OK SARNT KEYBOARD COPY THAT
Ahahaha
😆 lol 😆 hilarious.
I Did a National Guard Special Forces 1 day event yesterday. Flew from Illinois to Massachusetts to see the 20th special forces group. Competed in the SF PT test( Push ups, Sit ups, Pull ups, 5-mile run, and a 10 mile ruck March with 45lb. I placed either last or close to last place. I never quit and I never once said to myself I didn’t belong or I couldn’t do it. I am more dedicated to Become a Green Beret now more than ever! I have a lot of work ahead of me but it’s a dream and it will become a reality!
Good luck dude.
Don’t quit, and work on your every weakness till it becomes a strength
Good luck.

Perfect. Literally, every reason I've thought of was in this video. The most important being wanting to work with and be around people who feel the same way.
Currently civilian prepping for SFAS these words hit home, want this job and life more than anything
Dude that's unreal. Such a simple, honest and effective motivation. So much clearness in his words. Thank you for sharing this with us.
This might just be the best military promotion video on youtube. Amazing job!
I worked in Fort Bragg (Liberty) couple of years and there I met some of the most professional, bad ass, nfg and fearless Soldiers ever. These men will walk right through hell for each other. I’m glad even in these times we have people like them. God bless them all!
This speech touches my soul. I feel it and I want do all I can to become a Green Beret. I'm only 17 and hearing the quote "I never want my kids looking up to someone else." That hits home everytime I watch it for some reason. This will never get old. I love it so much.
Put in the work brother
Probably the best video out there, great job my friend..i keep coming back to this video and reminds me about life
Great video, thanks for posting!
Love the Colorado Springs lights in the background! 10th group was so much fun.
7 of the best years of my were spent at Carson....GSC/HHC.....I Miss it
This video inspires me everyday. Please upload more like this!!!
you guys, are my heroes, thanks for your service
Out of every motivation video i ever looked for, this was hands down the best one
Best recruiting video, left my 9-5 desk job, went the OCS route, have since gotten out and now working in LE and have never regretted the decision to leave my desk job. God bless America!
1:38 *some* _POG_ *hit his nods with the feed tray LOL*
Love everything about this video..... I'm married to a GB and in a former life I was a CST..... this hits home on so many levels
This makes you think about life , your purpose beyond just surviving !!
Huge respect for those Few Fearless ❤
Signed my 18x contract leaving this November, it was hard letting the wife and family know how bad I needed this, but now in trying to crush PT before heading out to basic.
I went through infantry osut with a lot of 18x and gonna graduate airborne school on the 7th while they go into selection. My one thing of advise is to not lose motivation, because that place is a 22 week shit hole and you’re gonna lose gains. I used to be strong asf and I lost most of what I had. Be doing insane amounts of push-ups sit ups pull ups and make your own weights (hill bags with shit and lift them or go to the bathroom with a towel and put it over the top to do pull-ups) eat as much as you can bro and work out all day every day because if you don’t you’ll suffer. I have a captain in my bay that passed selection completely and he said “you don’t have to be the strongest but be that guy that’s always willing to help carry or switch out, be there as a team member and keep your cool no matter what” just don’t lose motivation. Sand hill breaks you down and never builds you back up. They want to dick you down and see you fall. You have to show everyone you’re really about that fucking life. Good luck brother, go earn that blue cord.
@@julianwhite6566 Doc approves this message. Stay dangerous my brother.
Youre the man, good luck.
All I can say is it’s well worth it at the end. Aspire for excellence in all things.
@@julianwhite6566 couldn’t said it any better bro just got my blue cord a month ago going to selection in August💪🏾
This is one of the best videos I have ever seen.
I watch this video everyday. It has truly changed my life.
There has never been a better video made than this one.
Thank you for always being an inspiration and light in the dark.
This is so dope. These guys are awesome
Probably the best recruiting vidoe I´ve seen
I watch this every morning with coffee since I found it 2 months ago. It has changed my life.
This video played a role in my personal statements for USUHS. Thank you!
Key phrase here is “wanted” because I joined I went through all the shit I deployed to a combat zone and it wasn’t worth what I sacrificed which was my mental health…
It wasn’t just you so don’t brag about it
The part where he says I never want my kids to look up to someone else growing up is so powerful. He doesn't mean dying,he means to be a man of integrity. How many of us look up to someone else instead of our fathers? I'm not a father yet,but If I'm blessed with children I want to be the one they look up to.
I have watched this every single day
im not a soldier but i watch this every morning while making a coffee. This give me every motivation i need.
SAME brotha! I can't get over this video.
Currently putting in the work to get a Navy EOD contract. I watch this video often. Helps me to put into words why I’m doing what I’m doing, and then some.
Good luck to everyone else trying out. See you in the field.
Always regretted walking away from a recruiter when things were hot. Fast forward, post college and in the midst of my “business” career my wife encouraged me to step into that recruiting office.
Although I enjoy what I do 9-5, there was nothing like lighting up the sky with my brothers during some training, sleeping in the mud and rucking 10 miles with a 50 # ruck with some SF guys.
My kids want to know more about what I do in the army than my 9-5; my step dad former army ranger & Apache bad @$$ calls them “there I was” stories. He would say “there I was” flying an Apache was a much better story than “there I was” closing a deal.
That said, kudos to all hard working men providing for their families whatever it is they do. I’m especially thankful I get to serve my country and have great stories with my fellow brothers while doing it.
Not an American but your story inspires everyone around the world alike! Thank you for your service. God bless you
Probably the best recruiting ad I have seen for Army SF. It's a tie between this and Dirty Grandpa.
Had a great opportunity to train with 10th sfg in Lithuania. They shared their expirience with us and we shared some expirience we gained fighting russians. Those were good days. Greetings from Ukraine! I hope we meet again🤙
You should definitely ask the 10th SFG to use this as a recruitment ad. They would love it
Wow. Makes me wanna go back in and go for it. Special group of guys
This is beautiful
10th SFG, 69 - 71. Thanks for the walk down memory lane.
99-00 I was their transport in Kosovo. When I got back to the states the Army put me at Carson their home.
I rode Harleys with them and had a great time. One night it was brought up about Friend Remembered. I listened tot he guys talk about their friend who hit the landmine with the HMMWV.
I was on duty that night and the radio traffic was horrible to hear and we really wanted to launch a Hawk. I said nothing and we all took the shot.
Its a silent toast.
Thank you Bill, Chief and Rob for being good friends and the whole crowd. I was honored to fly you as my customers and ride with you on bikes.
I learned a lot from how you spoke and it made me a good NCO for my platoon as an E-5.
SM from other platoons wanted to come to mine that is how well we operated. We all came home in 04 from Iraq. Plus our birds trucks hell every last nut and bolt.
I thank you all for serving next to me and accepting me as a brother.
"I couldn't stand the thought of a 9-to-5."
Me: In 10th SFG working 9-to-5
Amazing video overall though lol, let me know if you need any extra graphics. There's a whole drive photographers of 10th use
Lol in the regular Army you are even lucky to get off at 5. Enjoy your time in Group man the regular army is garbage.
@@JesusChrist2000BC the real fun training is in the SOF community. Not the regular ARMY bullshit. I hated it too.
Is this a joke? Are you on an A team? Group guys don’t actually do 9-5s do they?
@@Ash12428 wtf are you talking about. I said regular ARMY meaning anything but SOF or SF.
for those wondering, the soundtrack is :
the national- about today
This video, is perfect!
Mad respect for you guys. I recognize some of the places in the video having use facilities on Fort Harrison, Helena, MT before with my unit
Beautiful
Great video!!!
This will stick with me for a long time.
Any one that goes down range, past or present, always in my heart .always in my mind.
Woah. That was beautiful
This is powerful.
A powerful video 🔥💯
I never found a video that Articulated how I felt so accurately
Salute from Spanish Army, great video
This gives me goosebumps...I wish my life is this.
Retired CW4, this sums it all up, life lived the way a true warrior wants it.
Live in India . This motivates me to join para special forces.
This whole video hits hard.
The first test is getting past MHS Genesis at MEPS folks. Good luck around 90% are being rejected due to Genesis.
This video is so damn important for young people to see. I am currently in that fucking office, and desk, pushing a 9-5 that’s sucking every ounce of joy from my soul each & every day and there is NOTHING I regret more in life than not serving in the military. I know that feeling is gonna stay with me til I leave this earth too. Can only hope & pray that God has something in store for me somewehere down the road.
Your message has a lot of weight. Thank you for sharing this.
I can joyfully say that I'm currently studying to become a police officer in my country and I have, after all, found my meaning and my why 🙏 God is great!
Could not have said it any better myself
God bless and all the best U.S.Army Special Forces 🇺🇲🕊️
This hits my soul…. I want it more than I want to breathe….
1/10 SFG, proud then.
Proud now.
Excellent video
Needs to be more vids like THIS….we are starved for real authentic shit these days
I first stumbled into this video when I was a week from graduating 11B MOS Q school, we had just finished a 12-mile ruck, and an assault on a village scenario right after. My shins were burning and my uniform wet but as I waited for the showers to be free, I saw this video and for the remaining days there, I saw this video everything before going to sleep, and when I was on the bus back to the airport after graduation.
I watch this every day.
“Always forward, never backwards”
very inspiring
1:38 I can feel the pain of the nods getting hit
31s too. F
lol. i felt it too
Was in the 10th at Devens. Best assignment in my career.
Amazing.
indeed a masterpiece
A very important message about true service
Can't stop watching this
Awesome!
SUPERB!
Simple and powerful wow that’s how I feel about life ... dmn
Man this was good
Nailed it ~ De Oppresso Liber, Always
thank you
Still grateful to the 10th for some of the finest Infantry training I've ever had...without having been a part of them.
Amazing video
As somebody who served a decade in infantry batts with multiple tours over, this mindset is exactly what drove me to always push and drive my guys into the dirt ensuring we were better prepared than the rest! After a career ending injury and being forcibly medically retired last year I now question what’s the meaning of it all, where do I fit in out here? Do I fit in out here?
I’m in business school studying finance and accounting at a D1 university and I can assure you guys like us do not fit in to that suit and tie corporate life. Do I finish the program? Do I start my own thing? Do I just live day to day? Idk but I do know this video is the first thing I’ve listened to in the last 19 months since being retired that explains how the hell I feel so thank you!
