One thing I will say is that some of what happens at some bases are due to the surrounding area or town, others is due to either lack of moral, leadership, or a disagreement! It does happen on or near these bases! And some of the prevention should have started at the top with in the chain of command.
I was stationed at Fort Hood for 2 years, probably while this was filmed and got out last year. I will say this vice video is VERY accurate. The culture and attitudes of soldiers is exactly as presented in this video.
Hey don’t let these older folk tell you otherwise. As a recent veteran of the United States Marine Corps, this video was spot on. No one ever talks about this so someone as big as Vice covering it is good news. How anyone can watch this and still defend the institution is beyond me.
I am a US Army veteran. I was in Fort Hood in 1971, more than half a century ago. I had later achieved the rank of SFC, E7. I suspect what is going on. I had seen problems like this before. Enlistment standards might have been reduced. In the past, during the Vietnam war, some judges gave prisoners a choice of prison or the military, meaning the Army. In addition, the judges had the prisoners' crime records wiped clean. Behavioral problems appear in places like Fort Hood because of combat soldiers, not elite airborne, not SF, and not technical soldiers. This also means, you will probably find similar problems at other Army bases that house combat soldiers. Fish around CZcams and you will likely find one or two.
@ytgeorgia Your views on the Army are very outdated, this crap happens with all types of soldiers. If you were to looks at different types of soldiers per capita, I would bet that the SF community is far worse than conventional forces. It is just a size of the type of soldiers, that is why the numbers look so bad. I was stationed with 4ID at Fort Hood from the beginning of 2009 until late 2010, then PCS'ed to Fort Campbell. The real problem is that there are a few bases in the Army that are "blackholes" ones you get assigned to them you can't get out of them. Fort Hood is one of them. You also have to remember that these soldiers were deploying every other year for over a decade, and the military doesn't care about the mental health of service members.
well with the low recruit rate and DEI. shit is going to go south
@@marktisdale7935 Thank you for convincing me why we need to reduce the US Army budget to near Zero. If I ever have a daughter I will tell her to never join the US military even in a time of war and I would immediately get her out of the country.
@@TywinLannister0 If anything a larger budget would help. They'd attract better people and kick out the shit bags, have more mental health resources. This is like saying the police are trained enough so defund them all! Total backwards view
@@AlexHunter2525 If a major War happens you want Bombers and Fighter jets, How many Infantry and tanks Do you need on the ground and towed Artillery.
All I'm saying is Boost the budget of the Air force and Navy and Lower the budget of the army. Do you agree?
The last few mins were spot on: check the box that "training was administered" and sweep it under the rug.
These crimes arent bound by rank either, Ryan. The channel, Angry Cops, is always calling attention to all sorts of things, whether it's something cringy to downright criminal, or even the lighter side of things like Angry Meme Review. Rich is an Army drill sergeant and active police officer in upstate NY with an eye for being objective in dealing with all manner of things good n bad.
To step back to my comment about crime at different rank, he made a video about 3 months ago featuring an Army officer who put a spycam in a dressing room. I'll just leave it at that.
His Shorts are a good place to start to get a feel for him before just diving into the deep end, but I know you're not afraid of a little water🙃
Wishing you well, brother.
Peace
✌️😎🇺🇸🇬🇧
i watched Angry Cops once and he screams a lot and he walks and acts too weird, I don't want to fucking deal with his videos if he can't fucking be normal so F@ck that youtube.
@@TywinLannister0 He's not trying to impress everyone.
+1 for Angry Cops channel. He's funny as.
But more importantly, he covers stories about just what you mentioned. While he does it with humor, it's at the scumbag 's expense. Whoever that may be at the time.
PS, that was a Navy officer, I beleive you're referring to in your comment. And he used his phone to capture the no no footage/ pictures.
And then they changed his duty station from recruiting to ROTC oversite, I beleive.
If I'm wrong, I apologize in advance, and I'll look for the video that Rich did on what you're referring to.
One thing I learned being stationed at the US Army Mortuary, Frankfurt GE. Soldiers die for a lot of reasons, most of it not good.
Those numbers would be relatively small if we were talking about the entir
I did almost my entire contract on fort Hood lol. It’s a rapid deployment base, deploy every other year. It’s known as the black hole and very hard to leave so the self deleting is huge. Glad I made it out frfr!
lol my brother did 15 years before he medically retired and all but 4 were at hood (not including afghan and Iraq deployments). He did 2 at Carson and 2 as an instructor at Leonard wood before being sent back to hood. Got out and still lives in the area. Was amazed he did so long without catching a trip to Germany or Korea.
Thank you for sharing this Ryan.
Entire military but that was one base
I am an old school US Army 95B Military Police and I worked Military Police Investigations (MPI). I worked with CID and knew them well.
We did the investigations. We filed the charges and wanted justice done. Lawyers and Commanders had the last word at J.A.G. (Judge Advocate General).
Hey Ryan! I really think you should react to “48 of my comrades are buried there”. Very touching video
You should do a reaction to the Korean Englishmen taking British Students to try out in the Korean Navy Boot Camps. I think you would really enjoy that.
they think there is a serial killer targeting troops
He's been active for a long time or there's multiple serial killers
Take a look at Canada. This looks benign by comparison.
Well they’re using statistics that include self deletion, so it’s going to be skewed regardless if that’s their reference for “danger”.
And society as a whole is murder free, sexually assault free ... not.
I never understood why military bases are built in the worst possible areas. They are crime-ridden, gang-infested, drug-laden towns right outside the gates. This was the same at every base I was stationed at. Ft. Lewis, Ft. Hood, Ft. Benning, Ft. Gordon, Ft. Carson. The same crap hole town just outside the front gate. It boggles the mind.
Viice has a problem of exaggeration with out doubt. I was at Fort Bragg and Fort Sam in 2003 this wasnt as much a problem as it is today. My youngest son left Parris Island in 2018 and this shit was much more prevalent then... standards have changed for recruitment, letting in gang bangers and shit and thats the primary cause of this today in my opinion.
This has been happening at Ft Hood for more than a decade. It was one of the most criminally active posts when I was in the Army in the mid to late 80s. This is nothing new.
Another reason to disband the Base and Disband the entire US army branch. I like the Air force more than the fucking army.
flexing on the stream deck buttons - nice!
I agree with your final statement...
My guess is whoever wanted you to review this knew you always talked good about the U.S. military and thought you were wrong
There is the UCMJ Article 32 process where a "hearing officer" conducts an investigation and prepares a report to the commander (aka Convening Authority), who has SOLE DISCRETION to refer the case to court martial. And, the Convening Authority also has the power to grant clemency after a court martial. Perhaps the commander/Convening Authority has too much judicial power.
For real I thought it was going to be about the like, toughness of the base and theyre badass defences. Not abs....unsavory plp doing terrible things.
The problem was even worse and then it flattened out then it started to spike again in 2001
Unfortunately ryan as a veteran myself and like other veterans on here will tell you, this is more than just an base issue. This is a leadership issue, a state, issue, a political issue, and cultural issue
I was born at fort hood in 1989
It’s a video by vice,
They over dramatise everything
Doesn’t mean they are wrong. Your argument should be, these events should never happen!
I guess you can find a shirt. That fits huh? William s
12:42 Anyone who has gone through Kuwait on their way to or from theater will know how bad it was there...how bad the SA rate was there.
Signs on all of the walls, everywhere, all along all of the T-walls and the MWR, and...Everywhere.
So sad.
We have a two-tiered Justice System in our Country, but this is different.
Justice needs to be fair for all, or it's not Justice. It seems that the military Justice System in the USA is one large step worse, though. It's totally disgusting. I'm shocked that this can happen. I'm sorry for the victims and their loved ones.
Stuff like this has been happening since I went in back in 2002. I got out in late 2013. First duty station was Ft Carson. The gangs and drug dealers were even on post! My last duty station was Ft Lewis, to be renamed, Joint Base Lewis McCord ( JBLM ). A few years before I was forced out though my MEB. The hospital on post, "Madigan" had a situation. A LTC or maybe it was a COL was busted for screwing soldiers out of their disability percentage. He said the quiet part out loud to a news media group. There was a HUGE investigation which never went anywhere. The crap continued on. I was kept in two years ( roughly ) past my ETS date. Was almost forced to go to Afghanistan during my MEB! Congress Woman of Colorado intervened. This doesn't surprise me its still happening. The U-ASS needs a HARD RESTART!
Based information… they’ve apparently never been to Fayettenam 😂 (
Just saying it’s not just hood, its every major base in the states. And it’s because they don’t really background check soldiers as they enter the service. In a service component where you have some soldiers that are there on a “go to war or go to jail” basis and those individuals are elite gang members… 🤷🏼♂️ this is what happens…
Hi mate, doubt you'll read this but in the event you do.
I'm an unfit 26 year old that wants to change his life completely. I think the military is the way to do that as I lacked proper discipline growing up. Is it too late for me?
I was at Ft. Bragg NC and we called Fayetteville, NC "Fayettnam".
I served 26 years in the Navy and had a great deal,of trust in the integrity of my superiors. Saw them in action and all I saw was appropriate!
As an American citizen I am, of course, EXTREMELY concerned about these behaviors and allegations. However I would have a couple is critiques about this video. Vice is often viewed as releasing hyperbolic reports which often take a rather left leaning view and the fact their video offers no counterpoint from the other side of their argument is concerning.
Please tell me ots the mold !
Id of used harsher words I think more apprioprate.....but....
Some of the top brass are guilty of these accusations
I just delivered some computer servers to Tinker AFB
30 a year ? How many die in city of 35,000 a year? just wondering
I'm not going to say that this stuff doesn't happen, I got out of the Army 25 years ago but, this video is not credible just because it is from VISE. They exaggerate everything and or outright lie, they are nothing but click bait.
Yessur
I dunno...
Whether the information is verified as true or not dictates to me whether it's credible or not, not the media outlet that's pursuing the story
Every media outlet, mainstream or alternative, will have a bias & slant. But if they are TRYING to be factual, and paint an accurate picture, I'll give them a listen to.
(If folks have been in the military, they'll probably be able to tell what sounds true & what doesn't...)
I won't simply dismiss it outright because after all _even a broken clock is right twice a day._
Instead, I am going to have to come back in a few days after the comments build up to see what the overall consensus is. I rarely go back to watch a video a second time, but in this case I think a re-watch and re-read will be interesting.
I fucking hate the US army, What the fuck is wrong with you. I think the US Army needs less funding
@@chrisburke624I'd say the general sentiment that Fort Hood is fucking wild is true but how bad it is is definitely exaggerated
I shall enjoy this watch
😬🤯
160 soldiers have died outside of combat??? No numbers for car accidents, medical problems, etc. I know two soldiers stationed at Fort Hood and they deny this film’s basic premise.
Regarding your question about whether past cases that have been closed will be reopened, I’m not sure, but in the U.S. ex post facto laws are prohibited by the constitution. I don’t know whether that would apply in this case, or how/if statutes of limitations may affect individual cases.
Full disclosure. 11B 1_505 PIR 83-87. Some of these things, if becoming more common or more disclosed, if happening. Perhaps, perhaps we should do some of the induction interviews that the foreign legion do in France. Some are told they failed induction and will never be allowed to try again. The video made me believe that some mental questions they might ask are a general red flag for possible issues that could arise. Yes am guessing the SAs are not new and more spoken of. But, perhaps their interview system helps weed out some who might not be in close proximity to others with access to weapons and hand to hand training.
Hood is widely regarded as the worst posting in the Army.
The military is no longer in charge of these kinds of cases anymore. Just recently both Republican and Democrats voted to install Civilian Oversight over these kinds of cases. The Commander no longer has the authority to issue his own recommendations. Civilians are now in charge of that. For exactly this report, as a listed example.
Easy enough dont let the women in! In my opinion they ruined any unit that had them in it that I was in
It's strange their moral is very low in a horrible war like in the Vietnam War. In that war the moral was so low that the soldiers were killing each other. During a mission of search and destroy they went to a village and killed everyone. My father came by a 8 year old boy and he didn't want to kill him but his fellow soldiers all pointed their rifles on my father. If my father didn't kill him then he would have been killed. So he did it and regretted it the rest of his entire life.
I can't believe we have a recruiting problem.....
WOKE Military! What do yo think product would be?
Interrupting the video every thirty seconds to say, I can't believe?
Your audience will be better served if you give your opinion 😉 at the end of the video.
CZcams suggested your video but I couldn't watch the whole thing and was turned off from watching any of your other videos.
Why ia there no audio at the beginning? Weird, i had to choose a different video then come back just to get audio....
I spent 10 yrs active duty, several bases, and I’ve never seen nor heard anything close to this, not saying there isn’t issues, but VICE is really Spinning this ……… take this with a grain of salt.
exactly, it feels like a hit piece from vice, complete with crackhead karen the interviewer and the drama. the us military still needs to be responsible and solve these cases and get rid of any bad apples that are committing these crimes, not cover for the bads and bury the cases if that is indeed what is happening.
Fort Hood is gigantic and like most bases, surrounded by not the greatest of towns.
I wouldn't be surprised if Cruz, is in on the cover ups. 😢
0:09 Busy hands right now, Brother, so no comments from me this time...🙂
The Sun never sets on the British Empire.
There are a lot of soldiers involved in the gang / drug game at Ft. Hood.
I just finished half of this video. Unfortunately there's always a few bad apples in every part of life.
With no evidence of foul play, all service members are considered AWOL when they do not report for duty.
They deleted the video lol
They want bodies in uniform - numbers. The Army doesn’t care of the quality of these people. Then they lower standards to compound the problem.
I was at Hood for more than 10 years. This isnt accurate.
It's Vice. They have good reporting, but they really dramatize everything. Starting with the dramatic music.
US Army this is common and real but as a female you are far safer in the marines vs the army
So, according to this report, a Wagner group base is more secure and disciplined?!!!
What about the rapes/crimes that happen outside US overseas military bases?
Hood has always been a problem
Well, they're full of combat veterans and certified killers. So, there's that. If you don't belong there, stay off base.
They are only dangerous if you put yourself in a bad spot. Drunk by yourself, buying drugs, flashing cash...at all these places.
I don't think this video is your type of content.
Why not? Do you want to romanticize everything fucking thing about America? Do you care about the happy image of America? people are dying and women are getting raped and you give zero fucks.
