“Fuck the lottery. I had everyone come home in both tours.” That is a powerful quote my friend.
If it makes you feel better the tank commander and convoy commander got court-martialed and crucified. You can find the story online in the army times I think.
Yepp, a comment by vicius from a combat vet react about this video give some details abt it aswell
i feel like you made a typo and they werent actually crucified
Did the 19 year old have PTSD and kill themselves? I need to know the aftermath.
@@hughjanos3992 of course they weren't literally crucified, but they did serve prison time and were dishonorably discharged, along with a couple of others in that convoy.
Does anyone have that link?
LOVE how passionate Kit was in this.... like he said, "YOU DON'T ABANDON YOUR TANK! EVER."
You go down with it! Button up and pray.
I have never seen him so angry in any of his reactions prior to this because it hits so close to home for him due to his time in the service
@@outlawX357 same with my uncle he seen alot of shit in his tank and would NEVER leave someone from his tank behind he actually sent a e mail to Mike asking to report this story to hirer ups in the army
@@oldgreggsmadmemes4431 yeah I was glad to hear that the tank commander and gunner were court martial for thier actions. Apparently they had falsified thier reports claiming that the driver was killed without ever confirming.
I've never seen Kit worked up for real. This story was infuriating.
That's how you know he's a real vet
You really can't trust anyone these days, even your own military squad apparently. I couldn't believe what I was hearing.
I’ve never seen Kit this angry and it’s understandable. Heck, I’m not even a vet yet I know you’re not supposed to leave anyone, let alone a 19 year old that’s probably one his first ever convoy, in a tank by themselves.
This is absolutely something to go full RAGE mode over, just What The Fuck, there had to be prison time over that incident.
@@Joe-xq3zu I hope the guys were discharged or had some kind of punishment because what they did is just deplorable.
@@Joe-xq3zu To quote Vicius: (a comment from Combat Veteran reacts for this video)
I was deployed during this time in the area they were at. I heard about this story, and our command had to hold a 'Safety Stand Down Class' on the fuck ups this unit did, and what not to do. Theater Command crucified the gunner, chief and convoy commanders. Full Court Martials all around with Dishonorable Discharges and some prison time. I'll see if I can find the article that was posted about it in the Army Times. EDIT/ADDITION: I'm still looking, but it's like digging through a stack of papers a mile deep and unorganized as well. My unit's Safety Stand Down was in Late July 2009, so look earlier than that for the initial incident (maybe Feb 2009? Court Martials take a bit of time. I saw the Article commenting on the Court Martials in Mid-August. I can't remember their names or ranks for the most part. But I remember the Assistant Convoy commander was a SFC that got an extra charge due to falsifying his report (Saying the vehicle was destroyed/inoperable, and the driver was KIA and they couldn't recover the body (Which turned out to be false)). Only the Crew Chief, Assistant Convoy Commander and Convoy Commander got prison time. And of course, discharges all around. I'll keep looking, but if you want to help, there is the pertinent info that I have from an aging memory.
@@lloydlim1055 thanks for the info. 👌
I'm not a vet and I know you don't do that, for fuck's sake everyone's heard the phrase "no man left behind".
For those who don't know, there are two types of Officer in the military:
Cool people who make the unit they're in better.
-or-
The most insufferable and miserable prick you will ever meet. There is no in-between.
Mustangs are even WORSE. You can never get a read on a prior E unless you've known the person for a while. I've met some fantastic Mustangs in my time, and also some of the worst lost their own ass while wiping officers of all time. It's a 50/50 coin flip whenever you deal with these distinguished gentlement/women.
Kit wasn't just pissed at the convoy story, he was siething :D
But yeah, you don't just leave your comrades behind!
God I knew Kit would get pissed from this story, but danm.
If it makes it any better the comments on the video state that in fact the convoy commander did get court marshaled for that incident.
Martialed. Court marshaled is... something else. Don't know what, but it's something else.
@@axelord4ever They most definitely got court marshalled, because if you had to go through a formal hearing in front of a panel of military officers, that's pretty much a court marshalling. If it's just a pissed-off Sgt Major making you do extra guard duty or revoking weekend passes with a signing of a form and dressing you down personally in an office, then that's just a Non-Judicial Punishment.
@@SSgtJ0hns0n Marshal and martial are not the same word and mean two very different things.
Marshal is used to denote position/rank of an 'officer' whose role is to oversee/gather people. Very few modern equivalents, though all of those uses are related still.
Martial, as in _Mars,_ the Roman god of war, relates to... well, military things. Court Martial, lit. a _war court._
@@axelord4ever Huh, so it seems I've made a spelling mistake, cuz apparently there's no such thing as being "court marshalled", just "court martialed", my bad
@@SSgtJ0hns0n S'cool
TMYK
seeing the title and thumbnail
"yup, we're gonna see kit filled with anger for the first time"
Kira: Do people just leave their tanks behind?
Kit: NO!
US Government: *nervously glances at Afghanistan and back*
To be fair, the didn’t leave the tanks behind.
Just… a bunch of everything else…
Russian Government: nervously glances at Ukraine
HAHAHAHA 😆 This comment thread is gold.
I did that!
- Joe Biden
I'm a little surprised they didnt jump to what I thought was the obvious conclusion that the crew was KIA.
“Why didn’t you salute” oh ye know trying to keep a bullet from destroying your skull
if they start bitching to you like that, and everyone knows they're insufferable, just keep that salute up for a while. if you're lucky you wont have to deal with incompetence anymore.
“Sir I think it’s self aware”
“Welp… shit this is above my pay grade😐”
That is such an army thing to say.
My dad reacted the same way to that story.
Edit to add: Kit, idk if you're reading these, but my dad ALSO was subject to Army officers being absolute douchebags about saluting despite being in a war zone. My dad (JTAC) was constantly getting shit on for protecting his own guys from the stupidest shit that Army commanders would come up with.
Yeah, Army officers have a hard-on for being saluted, until there are enemy snipers around, then suddenly it's all, "Why you saluting me?"
I have the same reaction as Kit here, having served in mandatory conscription in my country, we were also taught to leave no soldier behind.
Those irresponsible men left the kid to die and suffer severe PTSD. That's just atrocious.
So before I was like: I don't exacly know if that big teddy bear realy is vet or if he is doing a bit, but after seeing him go from 0-100... yup, guess I have my confirmation
We love you guys, and while I love Campfire Stories and know this one is dark, we can see through these stories that Kit and Kira are heroes, by the content of their character. Sorry about such a dark story, but we saw how good of hearts y'all had today.
Keep on keepin' on!
And you don't use that word often!
Bradly's were favorite targets of IEDs because insurgents were big on bragging rights and that meant usually prioritizing aircraft or the biggest ground vehicles. Bradly's being basically armored busses were usually the biggest vehicle in a convoy and were therefore often the main targets of attacks.
I know these two would probably lose their stuff if they saw "ArmA: We Go Kayaking, Start A Cult & End the World - Fustercluck in ArmA 3" by Rimmy Downunder
I mean seriously, if that doesn't perfectly summarizes Rimmy and his content I don't know what will
*Kenneth liked this comment*
It's a shame that Kenneth was a one shot character.
According to a comment on another channel reacting to this video, you’ll be pleased to know the commander in question did get his ass handed to him in the mother of all court martials.
Damn, I can feel Kit's emotion through the screen.
I just feel even more bad for Kit from a previous video over on the topic "Anger Management" by mikeburnsfire, but when I saw the thumbnail and title, I just knew that Kit was in for a ride over terrible leadership and incompetence of the US Military during the 2000s
Their still incompetent and its 2018, we're fucked if this is our line of defense.
@@jackmichelle7015 yeah it's still scary
Honestly, fucking getting that driver out, setting the Bradley on FIRE and abandoning it would've been better than what they did.
That would have been my thought. Disable the vehicle so enemy forces can't use it.
holy shit, you can see him starting to cry when he hear about the kid condition, damn
At what point? CZcams mobile compression bitcrushed it so i couldnt see
Kit losing his shit was satisfying in a bizarre, cathartic way.
So there's another reaction/breakdown video to this story and a guy in comments said they had to a safety stand down brief for this incident. The OIC, The NCOIC, of the Convoy along with the vehicle commander of the Bradley all got court martialed, dishonorably discharged along with jail time. The NCOIC tried to file a false report saying that the bradley was completely destroyed and the body was unrecoverable so they left him.
Meanwhile someone who knows that private is like: Bullshit, I saw him getting treated YESTERDAY!
@@JnEricsonx More like Army records of that private getting treated, were bullets against that NCO
@@L44tsmasher735 Im a civ and watching that story pissed me off.
Lmao, where on earth did ya find Kit? He's one of the daftest, most energetic storytellers, he's the last person ya'd expect to have been in the army xD
Marine corps* not Army.
Heh, ken'd there would be this comment coming my way, alas, from the outside of the US, marines, army types, they tend to be all the same to us. If anything, we expect the marines to have the funnier hats on parade.
Everytime Kit paused the video to comment my only thought was "No, it's worse..."
Im gonna edit this comment once i ge tot the crux of the story...with how Kit usually is...i get the feeling hes terrifying when hes angry...
Edit: I was correct. Ive seen a few vets reacting to this story...i think Kit might just be the angriest
Considering his comment afterwards of being Marines, I can understand this much more. It's a side effect of how the branches work. The Army is permanently Garrison minded. It is in their nature to be, because only very little of the army's time is spent as a top dog in actual combat. Most of the time they are police. The Marine corps is designed to be combat-oriented. Consider his story of saluting. No Marine on the planet would do that because it's a sniper check. No army man alive will give up the chance to be saluted. In Vietnam and Korea we routinely lost officers because no army man would give up the chance to be saluted. If you are in a combat zone and you salute a marine officer he or someone in his direct line is going to take you aside and talk to you. Because for them it is an obvious safety concern. You're going to get somebody shot.
I'm prior navy and never went into a major combat zones or anything, but that story about the Bradley pissed me off so fucking badly. It is an across board thing that even if you despised and hated the guy, you go fucking check to make sure if he's alive or not!
Seeing a Marine listen to these stories and talk about it reminds me of my grandfather. 3rd expeditionary force, 1st marines 1962-1970
My dad was in the British Army for the better part of 20 years he did three tours in Northern Ireland and left as a senior nco I like showing him military related content I find online and seeing his reactions and opinions of things but frankly I'm afraid to show him this one because he will react just like Kit pure anger and I'd really rather not make him so angry he punches a hole in a wall. I've seen him get angry about someone leaving their gun unattended for a few seconds this would have him ready to commit murder. Hell it makes me furious and I've never even served I really hope the idiots in charge got nailed to the wall for this.
You'll be glad to hear that both the tank commander and convoy commander got a court martial.
@@matthewblackwood9653 Good there is at least some justice in the world.
@@CommisarHood actually they might even serve sentence, and almost all the convoy got court martial or demoted.
I will love to see your reaction to Public Poo / Wild Hog - Campfire Stories its super good
Just to be clear most Bradley's have a 25 mm canon on them something originally used as a pair of them on a plane as the main forward facing machine guns and now is considered compact and mobile enough that it could be considered small arms
Actually, the reason they define the Bushmaster and the 155 as "small arms" is because otherwise it is only to be maintained by a calv trained armorer. Since they did not want to deploy the much less common calvary mechanics all over timbucktoo, they went down the line and defined it this way... "Calvary/Armored, calvary maintained. Infantry/scout/artillery, small arms maintains it"... has almost nothing to do with how it works, and almost totally to do with who normally uses it.
A lone damaged tank appears in the middle of nowhere running around, yet that isn't communicating and avoiding contact? I'm frankly surprised Kit didn't reach for the old boobytrap question, a buddy of mine about lost his leg from an IED in a humvee, he's right those are no joke. But yeah I was bloody angry from a commander abandoning his own solder, and still just wondering how that dirtbag got promoted in the first place because it almost sounds like it was habit for him to blatantly leave behind military hardware. Didn't realize Kit were in the military though, fun hearing his own tales too.
Like my grandfather said (I'm Finnish): You'll drag back three to get one home (raahaat kolme selässä että yksi tulee kotiin) You never, EVER, leave one of your own behind. You drag him back to your lines no matter if he's dead or alive. And if you got hit you were damn sure your buddies will get you out of there no matter the cost.
This is the first time i seen Kit genuinely mad
Please more of mikeburnsfire. make it another regular on this channel! Another good one from them is Coins/Blue Falcon - Campfire Stories.
4:44
"Do people just leave a tank there?"
"NO!"
Well.... Yes actually. And a lot of guns and aircrafts as well.
Damn, Kit REALLY brought out the Marine side of him this videos
I love righteous fury Kit. It's so fun (in a good way, sad he got so worked up in the first place) to see him react to this stuff especially if it has to do with Military matters.
According to the New York Post I believe a "Hero" is any person who does their job... You can also be a hero if you save a tot, a tot is any child under the age of 10.
In their eyes the only thing better than a hero is an angel, which is a tot who is dead
the m249 is a fine weapon, but the ol M60 is unbeatable. i prefer it over the modern M60E6. sure, its a lot more accurate. i live by a different creed. accuracy through volume. MOAR DAKKA!!!
And you wonder why these wars went the way they did- it wasn't the equipment, it wasn't the reason we were there, it was because a significant amount of people, from the top to the bottom of the chain, shouldn't have been, because their morals were rock bottom.
Plot twist. Kit's tank, and Zach's tank, are the same tank...
This is perhaps the angriest I have seen Kit.
He's a marine that was in Iraq so he feels this alot more I think
According to comments in Combat Veteran Reacts video on this video, pretty much that entire patrol got court martialed, and some got prison time
This story gets me riled up whenever I hear it. Really glad they got their comeuppance. Sucks for the 19 year old tho.
I'd have been like, "Can I file for early discharge now please?"
7:58 Adeptus Mechanicus Intensifies!!!!
okay that is an intense (if justified) reaction to this story even if its a bradley not an abrams. holy fuck.
I see why he was very angry
Hope the 19 year old guy is ok prob got PTSD from that
12:53 this story ALWAYS makes so VERY angry when I hear it.
That poor kid probably has PTSD related to any sort of loud boom or explosion from those I.E.D’s. The concussion made it even worse like he must’ve been so disoriented when he finally came around. I would’ve stayed with him or tried to wrap his head to stem the bleeding.
Yeah this is the angriest I have ever been listening to/reading a story
Just makes me mad ever since I first watched the video
And it's also the reason I'm scared to go to the military bc this shit happens
Keep in mind bud this is during Iraq, where everything was fucked and weird, stuff that happened then have been ironed out by now but shit still happens, just not as often as back then.
"Roadside Bomb" is how I.E.Ds were referred to on the news in Northern Ireland during the Troubles. It doesn't need turning into an acronym which you then have to explain that it's a bomb by or under the road.
Well they aren’t always on the side of a road.
I think it’s a military thing that has gotten mixed up in civilian use. A bomb is a specific thing in military terms. Aside from there being many different kind of bombs, they are a factory-constructed explosive device designed to be dropped from a plane.
There are many different kinds of explosive devices, a mortar shell, a hand grenade, a claymore mine and an artillery shell are all explosive devices, but neither of them are bombs. And neither they nor bombs are improvised.
It might seems anal-retentive to civilians, but there is a reason IED’s are called IED’s and not bombs.
@@suntiger745 Counterpoint: Mills Bombs. A bomb is any kind of non-artillery explosive whose purpose is to kill people, rather than to break rocks in a quarry or a mine or to removing buildings for redevelopment.
@@patrickholt2270 For the Mills Bomb, that is a WWI hand grenade given the name 'bomb', because the military is far from immune to messing up their own categorization systems. XD
Especially in WWI were many systems were significantly upgraded to the point that they were re-categorized later on.
Not a great priority in the middle of a war though, unless someone starts to mistake a truck with a Vickers machine gun mounted on the bed for a tank because they are both "combat vehicles". :P
You suggestion for a different categorization of 'bomb' is not entirely without merit, certainly not for civilian purposes, because starting to talk in "milspeak" categories tend to get confusing unless you are in the military, work with them or are a military history/equipment nerd.
A great example of this confusion is how often the AR15 is called an assault rifle. The AR15 is not an assault rifle, but it looks like the M16/M4 which are, without many people realizing the differences. For the sake of simplicity it should be called a rifle.
I was in the Navy, never stepped foot in a hostile country, and that tank story makes my blood boil. How can you do that to someone in your charge? That kid was someone's son, for fuck's sake.
ah convoy ptsd
Army Infantry does not salute.........
Except for the POGs who are idiots.
(POG = Person Other than Grunts)
I admit, I was a POG, but I was a Chaplain's Assistant whose job was to support and defend the Chaplain (by international law, they are not allowed to carry a weapon).
I would rip someone apart if they saluted MY Chaplain, MY Officer. They are under MY protection.
PLEASE DO MORE OF THESE CAMPFIRE STORIES!
You can see him get more and more angry the longer they listen
Thank you Chicago reacts for finally reacting
I did not know kit was a vet and soooo much makes sense now
man, Kit was PISSED at the Bradley story. daaamn
Kit on point
I remember hearing this story when I was 19, and I can still only imagine what it was like, waking up alone in a tank with a massive chunk of the day missing and with what looks like craters from explosions behind me.
"--Also my head is killing me, what is that ringing!? Where is everyone? Why is nobody answering their radio? Why am I even out here? Were we engaged? Did the other guys get killed? Where _is_ here? I'm not behind enemy lines, am I? What if I'm all that's left? What if they realize I'm still here? Oh God, I can't let them take me alive, who knows what they'll do to me! But how am I going to fight off who knows how many insurgents, especially the ones who killed my friends!? I can't drive, load, aim and fire a tank all by myself! *I'm just a kid!"*
13:28-warning, VERY PISSED OFF MARINE ALERT.
I have a left to die story for someone in my shop, It was at fort Irwin and it was someone in the welding shop I worked in. There was this detail where you can help train special forces guys by roleplaying as locals they they train up as rebel militia. Now Ft Irwin is like Ft Polk, its a large training center, it was in the Mojave desert. He gets this detail during the summer and they use civilian vehicles to move around the Mojave. At one point the sof guys tell my buddy and two of his friends to wait while they move ahead. They leave them in a old beat up civilian truck with just a jug of water in high desert during the summer. They don't hear from them for a couple hours and the heat was getting really bad. They decide fuck it, they call our First Segreant because the other guys weren't picking up their phone. Come to find out the SOF dudes fucking forgot about them and pretty much left them to die.
Furious kit is scary, like an angry dad...
Yes finally you guys react to zack and mike’s camp fire stories, there are some really funny and awesome ones in there
Guy on the right really having pent up frustration from his own experience I take it. LOL> I take it he must have dealt with some kind of similar bullshit too.
I just watched this and from others vids i know Kit as a joking and nice guy. But here you see his other side. The side only a vet is possible of. Getting mad about another comrades fate that he never even knew. That is the reason why its called a bortherhood.
The amount of selfishness of everyone in that convoy is infuriating. Hopefully Private Snuffy is living their best life right now.
This story always made me angry
One that I know kit would find interesting is Convoy by Naturetemper. It's a reading of a story from another Marine vet.
It’s weird but I feel a bond to mike due to the marines. But I’m drunk thinking about the past sxooooo
18:13 o shit, dat me
As someone from North Carolina I agree
Kit. You have destroyed my eardrums
Respect the knife hand
Can you react to some WorstPremadeEver videos they are great.
Pls make kira and kit react to 10 easter eggs that were never found part 4 by oddheader
Poor Kira has no idea what the video is about.
Her grinning got to me. I get she doesn't have experience of the pressures or stresses faced by active duty (I don't either), but her empathy seems broken.
I can internalize the crack of bullets, boom of an IED and feel an itch between my shoulder blades during these recollections - the stress of waiting for something to happen. She's grinning, chuckling and then when her cohost goes off in outrage at the story so far, she adopts an oh this is very bad tone and facial expression similsr to a (secretly proud) dad trying not to laugh at the shenanigans his child(ren) has been up to while his wife is pissed off recounting them.
She seems to be acting the social chameleon, which I find creepy.
oh shit knife hands
There are some absolutely AMAZING Wwarhammer 40K videos by Baldemort you coudl react to. Especially these:
czcams.com/video/qR14JC36jdQ/video.html
czcams.com/video/LTIZIDOIa8U/video.html
Oh damn, what an eps
Please react to "All Tomorrows: the future of humanity?" by Alt Shift X
I'm getting strong could not give a shit vibes from kira
Story's like these is what makes you lose faith in humanity sometimes
As a North Carolinan, no offense taken, but I wouldn’t want to be in Chicago either.
Its about time they got back to these lol. Got to the point I stopped trying to recommend
Yo Yo Chicago
Cool
Wen Napoleon Oversimplified
They got merch? CZcamsrs over here getting merch at around a couple hundred thousand to a million subs. meanwhile we get it at 60k. now this marketing.
ok I like Kit, he seems very genuinely interested in the stories and interested in telling his own stories, and his reactions/emotions are very honest. Kira on the other hand, irks me. She seems so disingenuous with her reactions and interest, for example, 13:46 'thaaat's craaaaazy'. it's one of those textbook surface-level reactions/responses, "im gonna give the bare minimum to attempt to let people know im not thinking about literally anything else", and it comes off as unappealing. I also like that Kit just sits there and watches until he gets to a part that grants him the opportunity to express a real reaction or to tell a story, not just throwing out random generic reaction 249 every 30 seconds.
you should look up lazerpig. the man is hilarious and covers stuff like the m2 bradley and ww2 tanks, as well as flying tanks, and a secret british spy satellite.
