Senior Chief Navy SEAL Don Shipley: "I'm a Navy guy.." - *Understatement of the Year.*
Not true, last Thursday I said that I was a little retarded
Don was THE Navy guy.
👍👍 greatest Chanel. Thank you
you have one of the coolest nicknames on you tube
And he is so benign sounding when he says it😂😂😂😂
navy vet here. i was a logistics specialist for 4 years on a destroyer. not the most exotic job but am proud of my service.
As you should be, sir. Thank you for your service.
I did 10 yrs as an AT (Avionics Tech), and the last 11 yrs on the O side. I'm basically a maintenance officer. Not glamours but I'm happy and proud of my service. Never had the urge to lie about my service.
Thank you for your service
you're welcome for my service
Thank you for your service brother stand tall and be proud 💪🏻 I'm most definitely proud and thankful for your service
I also served aboard the Enterprise. A few guys named Kirk, Spock and McCoy were with me. I can't really talk about the rest of it other than to say we explored some strange new worlds and sought out new civilizations...we basically boldly went where no man has gone before.
That's actually more believable than this guy's yarn. You might have even served under Capt Christopher Pike. Thank you for your service. Live long and prosper.
Oh yeah, I remember the Raytheon toilet paper on that ship that would tear anyone arse to pieces if they chose to use it. There was a claymore in every sheet and activate on impact when it hit the 💩🕳️.
I served on the Tactical Cube 138, joined the Borg right out of H.S., ran into a recruiter and he was really persuasive. They were a little fanatical for my taste and eventually I went AWOL. You just can't talk to some people. That's probably why they got blown up.
Well Kirk, Spock and MCoy meet Fred Flinstone (aka Don Shipley). He has staying power, I'll give him that much.
What annoyed Don seemed to be when he heard the Seals needed an OS for anything. As Don was in that area of conflict between Iraq and Iran he took that as a personal insult to him and his boys that they would need to call in stolen valour, or anyone for that matter, to help them out.
There is no need for embellishment of one's service, just be proud of the contribution made while serving.
Right. Id be 1, proud 2, embarrassed for fighting for these idiots that rule us. Ultimately proud. It's not about them it's about protecting the normal person and our rights. I'm so proud of any Allie to UK who puts their life on the line, so proud.
It's always the older insecure dudes who have to make up the bullshit because they feel they never earned their "man card" so its typical for them, to say they were team guys. You can see it in their whiny tones. My brothers active in the teams right now, and although he loves it, its nothing like its portrayed in the media/movies. #1 not every seal can fight like bruce lee #2 team guys can still get their ass whooped if they dont train mma on the outside #3 my brother hates going to civilian shooting ranges because of the unrealistic expectations dudes have if they find out hes in the teams - contrary to the misconceptional belief: seals are not perfect shooters ( Aside from most Damneck/devgru guys). Being a SEAL is a job - as with any job in the world there are people who excel at certain things and are worse at other things. There are guys in the teams who my brother has seriously questioned how they made it through selection. and if youre going to be a scumbag and lie to chicks, you may as well tell them you were a doctor (saying youre a seal only impresses other dudes unless youre in SD or little creek but chicks would find out within 10 minutes in both these areas)
100% Any and all military service is commendable
And for Don if you see this in case you'd like to verify (I went to his SQT graduation): Co++ Cham+++n : (First name last name) recent bud/s and SQT class within the past 6 years (330-370) west coast team - Enlisted. Brothers active so dont want to put full info out there. He got alot of the "sought after" schools basically straight out of SQT and passed them while in his 1st platoon prodev!

My dad was on the USS Guadalcanal in the 70’s. He was a CH-53 crew chief. He retired after 20 years. I’m so proud of my dad.
Ok, that's gruesome man. Can you name any guys he served with?
I'm joking, bless your dad!
I spent 6 months on the USS. Guadalcanal in the mediterranean, as combat engineer in the USMC.1971-1972
My dad was USMC at Guadalcanal. Been gone 20 years now. Still grieving. Most ferocious, kindhearted and hardest working man I’ve ever known.
Much respect to all current and former military
Ask your Dad if ge ever visited Ts Tavern in Olongapo City outside of Subic Bay, PI?
I've watched you for a long time, Don. It still bothers me that the ones who actually served can't just be proud of their job and have to make up stories. I'm proud to have served as an HM1 and although I had dreams of being a Team guy or other Tier 1 operator in another branch, I'm happy to have done the job I did
That always bothers me too. Serving is plenty honorable. Sad that they feel like they need to embellish.
I'm with you 💯 Yes.
I am impressed when I sit down with a service member and hear they have seen exotic places that I have only dreamed of seeing! I had one kewl conversation with a service member where they went to Ireland and showed me pics... lucky! They should be proud that alone!!
I've been a roofer for 25 years and I'm ginger so the sun hates me but I've yet to come across anyone that has pretended to be a roofer ...it mustn't be a sexy enough
@@brendancronin3796
lol!
I was a seal feeder at Marine World. It was brutal...getting the chum scent washed out
I served as a kitchen door gunner at Burger King and the amount of buns I witnessed being binned still gives me nightmares, my senior officer demanded me to shut up and keep cooking but suffer in silence. I struggle to this day about my experiences. Thank you Don for the exposure of these clowns.
My first tour of duty was trash detail at Hardee's. Those snipers were after me every time I headed out to the dumpster. I still have nightmares too. I feel ya bro... It's funny how that clown was crawfishing....
Did you get the gold or pewter spatula insignia?
@@monello99z96 lmao
I got Burger King PTSD, one day I just lost it and took bites out of the whoppers I was making, the shit hit the fan during the lunch shift from the Karen’s coming back to complain, I dishonorably quit my minimum wage job so I didn’t have to deal with it 😀
Sir??? I specifically asked of no pickles. IT'S THE TRUTH! YOU CAN'T HANDLE THE TRUTH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
My Uncle Eddie served 25 years in the US Navy. He was a huge part of local Veterans Services. He was so proud of being a Cook/Baker for all those years. No need to make up Shit. RIP Uncle Ed. He’s at Arlington resting. Thx Sir for awesome entertainment.
A good place to go to rest, surrounded by heroes and soft spoken people that answered the call of duty.
@@joeyyc8515 absolutely
Im sure your Unc was a bad MF. I didnt serve, but Im sure the guys who feed everybody on the ship has to be a popular fellas. Absolutely nothing wrong with being a Cook in my humble...
I was a Special forces cook. I have three confirmed kills with my meatloaf, two sailors and a Marine down with one bite each.
@@ProjecthuntanFish lol. C’mon. Your meatloaf was probably killer awesome.
I fought under General Electric during the AC/DC wars. My brothers were stationed in Kentucky during the eleven herbs and spices war under Colonel Sanders.
That's a funny freaking comment dude, very good
I hauled sails and manned cannon for Captain Horatio Magellan Crunch.
@@encinobalboa Hahahaaaa.. !
Hahahaha please 🙏 stop 🛑 I’m crying
Heard your nickname was Chikin likin.
When Don puts in his glassed you know he’s serious. Then he takes them off with satisfaction. So sweet. This navy guy is a national treasure.
Why can't people just be proud of the work they do? Just about everyone who's employed (inside legal businesses) in general should be proud of their work.
The way don amuses us with his facial expressions towards the camera is absolute gold , keep it up don !
Yes. I agree 👍
When Don asked for a name then puts his fingers up, you know the end is near.
That's just his professional "SO" bullshit meter!! 😀🤣😃😂
HEY DON, I THINK "MASTERCARD" RIPPED YOU OFF!!!!!!!!! WHEN IT COMES TO PRICELESS!!!!!! YOUR FACIAL EXPRESSIONS ARE 50 CAL. COMING OUT OF YOUR EYE SOCKETS!!! PS, STILL HAVING PROBLEMS WITH YOUR WEBSITE, ILL PLAY WITH IT TODAY, AND IF NO LUCK, ILL SHOOT YOU A EMAIL! THANKS, JACK 👍👍👍👍👍, THATS FOR THE WORK YOU DID ON GOLILOCKS!!!
Except that you made it cringe by bringing it up...
I served on the Enterprise’s first 5 year mission under Captain James T. Kirk. We went where no one has gone before. I left the 1701 before the refit. But I’ll always have a place in my heart for the old Constitution class ships 🖖
Pffftt! Small change. I sailed to America in The Mayflower and fought off a pirate attack by Captain Jack Sparrow and his cut-throats. I didn't get this chest covered in bravery awards for nuthin' ya know.
There's one in the fleet museum.
That's nothing I was with Joe Biden and Robert e lee when we beat Napoleon at the battle of little big horn
@@williamanderson6006 lol, good one,
A rootie toot Sa-lute to you brave sir those Mongolian's were vicious rifleman!
The Trident was shaped different on your uniform while you were on the USS Enterprise 😁
I was an Army Specialist 4 way back when. Our son became a Navy officer and earned his flight wings. He asked me if I would pin his wings on him at Pensacola Naval Air Museum. Having served as commander of our local American Legion post I wore my American Legion uniform. I was sitting next to my son when they presented The Colors. It was a huge honor for both of us to salute the flag side by side before I pinned his wings on him. You can be an Army Specialist and be happy with that, you never know what the future will bring!
Very Post Commander, keep recruiting, real vets only lol
I was an army specialist when I got out, it was medical but still. I guess I wasn’t good enough to not get blown up haha
My dad was dishonorably discharged from the Navy…. Still claims to be a veteran… wears the hats… accepts the perks… let’s just say he was a good a father as he was a sailor. A real piece of work.
Bet he claimed it was for fighting 🤣 guarantee if he did thats not why he was removed from service
I'm sorry to hear about your dad
Ouch.
My pop showed me a fake dd214 that showed he served in the invasion of Panama. But he was with my mother at the time lol it actually looked real until I did the math on the dates. Turns out he hit his superior NCO shortly after getting to his first command. I love him unconditionally and I served for 4 years as a Corpsman in the Navy but I don't understand the embellishment
Sorry to hear about that. Unfortunate.
I graduated USMC boot camp in 2004 which is only 3 months and while difficult, certainly not to the extent of BUD/S training. I can still name my drill instructors, and a large portion of my class. I can't imagine going through what they do and not remembering anyone. Still don't know why someone who served would feel the need to make up stories like this. Some of my best stories are times where we were in training or off duty anyway.
And you will never forget any of that. SEMPER FI
You, and every other vet have my greatest admiration and gratitude.
For me, there’s just no reason to think whatever position was served, it wasn’t “enough”. All are needed. All are appreciated. Thank you for your service.
From a man that never served in the military and all this fake shit makes me sick thanks again Don
I hear you, hell I'd be proud to have packed a SeAL's lunch.

@@iamthepapi6251 My Uncle was a Vietnam War hero, never spoke of it.
Dad was a cook, went back to U.S. Steel after two years but was proud to have served...lunch.
The closest thing that guy came to being a seal was when he fell on the beach!
😆
LMMFAO 👍🏻😂👏🏻🤣💪🏼
Contact these people first by telling them you are with a “special seal appreciation team” and that they are invited to an awards ceremony online and it’s just you laying into them. Tell them to wear their best uniform they have.
That'd be incredible
That’s brilliant that!
Would be even better inviting them all into a big marquee pretending they’ve won a “Special Seal Award” lace into them and have the cops lock them all up.
I'd pay movie ticket prices to watch this lmao
I like the way you think, now when did you say that party is going to happen? I'll wear my boy scout swimming with the seals and sharks badge uniform 😎 I got in the Civil war
For the life of me, I can't fathom why someone has so little self-respect for themselves (and others) that they have to do the "Stolen Valor" thing. I served 22 years in the Army Reserves. Two Call-ups, but no overseas service and never heard a shot fired in anger. I've never regretted not being "in country"; I just did what I was told to do, and went where I was told to go. And that was enough for me. Shaking my head......
The stolen valor thing? Are you special??
Shake that head Sir, but shake it held high and proud. You kept the states safe so my kids and family could sleep sound at night. I never served, but damn sure hold the utmost respect for anyone who did. Thank you for 22 safe years.
They steal valor needlessly. Most of them had an interesting enough job. That's what I don't get.
When they claim special service it's a red flag unless it can be verified.
I'm addicted to pigger nussy 🤠
Low IQ and low confidence types it's really a sad existence I suspect
Superman wears Don Shipley pajamas to bed at night
True? 😮 like for real? 😮
Ooooo good one
And a Shipley wig.
That's awesome 🤣 and true
Only when his chuck Norris PJ's are dirty....😂😅😂😅😂
I can't keep a straight face when Don looks into the camera. He makes me crack up everytime I watch him.
I been out of the army for 35 years and can still remember names of people I went through recruit training with. Without needing any time to think about it LOL. How could you forget ???? Great work Don and Diane 🙏🙌
Yep, me too from 1977.
@@DavidFraser007 Ditto for me. In fact, I still remember the name of the guy we gave a blanket party to.
i remember people i went to elementary school with and thats been 50 years ago now so i would surely remember people i served with had i served in the armed services
I went through Army basic in 1986 and I can name a half dozen guys from that.
My grandpa has passed away but when he was still alive he could tell you the serial # off the M1 he carried while he fought in Korea.
Don is hilarious I swear you can see on his face he’s not enthused at all by these 🤡 anymore I love it😂😂
Yeah because the shit gets old after 20 million times of the same bullshit excuses. Don is an honorable man above the standard.
He needs a guided mushroom or ayauasca trip.
WE HAD 3 SEALS IN OUR JUMP SCHOOL CLASS , ( # 46 OCTOBER 75 ) THEY WERE THE BADDEST DUDES IN THE CLASS EASILY ! MUCH LOVE AND RESPECT FOR OUR MOST OUTSTANDING WARRIORS ! 👍💪❤🙏
In my class we had several as well. They spent a majority of the time in the gig pit. The Black Hats enjoyed smoking them.
@@timf2279 THEY MESSED WITH THE SEALS IN OUR CLASS , NEVER CAME CLOSE TO SMOKING THEM THOUGH. THOSE GUYS THOUGHT JUMP SCHOOL WAS A VACATION 💪
@CARL RAY SEALS were in peak condition to say the least. Seems some troops show up with minimal training and struggle. The National Guard, Reserve, ROTC seemed to have it the worse. My platoon had been continously training for about 5 months by the time we got to jump school. In AIT our First Sergeant had us run 1/2 marathons twice a week. The 5 mile run at jump school ended up not being much of a challenge, we were more than ready.
He worked on the USS Enterprise with Captain James T. Kirk, fighting in space against aliens trying to take over the universe. Where do these people come from? I still remember the name of my drill sergeant in 1973 at Fort Ord, CA and again in Infantry training at Fort Benning, GA in 1982.
What’s wrong with saying “I served on the USS Enterprise, in the CIC.”
It’s an important job that not everyone can do.
"Launch the alert-5 aircraft."

Don is my CZcams father I have to check in on his channel everyday and then I start my day. Love ya man and I truly appreciate you doing this and I’m honored to hear your voice. Great work and you are a true hero to us all
Watched many of Don's videos. I am a veteran (Army) and it just amazes me that these dudes that actually served feel the need to embellish their records. It doesn't matter if you were a cook, a pilot, or an operator...you played your part. Be proud of what you accomplished.
In the Navy there is a term for it…Sea Stories… the reason you are taught to read ribbons and awards is to be able to spot an Imposter.
Stolen valor…NO… this isn’t stolen valor.
It is in fact stolen valor to call this stolen valor. By claiming a training pin means valor… is worse than this guy claiming training he never got.
As the son of a retired Chief Petty Officer,I find these videos as an absolute win!!!
Don I was on USS Enterprise during the 82/83 work ups and deployment. I have no memory of actually transiting the straits we spent a few months on what was referred to as Gonzo station in the Indian Ocean. This guy really bugs me. Thanks for what you do from a former AT1/USN.
I took care of my Marines in RVN as a corpsman. You guys helped those in charge help map out the shit that we had to meet. Thanks for the Seals and thanks for the Marines..Doc
As a Navy veteran and an American, you make me proud! God bless you, Don. My biggest regret in life is that I didn't have what it took to become a SEAL but I did my duty as an Aviation Ordnanceman 2nd class in the Vietnam war. Keep kicking those asses!
I was an AO2 with VA-105 during the Vietnam war (1971-1975) onboard the USS Saratoga. It makes me sick that these pukes try and get away with this sh*t.
My Grandfather was is the Australian Navy for 35 years! He was that guy that walked in & out with the Admirals, commodores, ect & never wore a Uniform. He was Chief of the Store for years, which is the largest Store in the Southern Hemisphere. Anything from womens socks to a Battle ship was OK'd, Bought & Paid for at his approval!
I had a CW4 Chief Warrant officer that was like that…. He ran the ship like he was the Captain… he was older and had been in the Navy longer than any of the Captains. He loved being on the bridge running the ship. He brought along a Master Chief to run his department while he played Captain of the ship.
Dude, you are remember those pillows on my ship I’m a United States Navy veteran and without general stores we wouldn’t of been able to run that ship. Anybody that serves on a ship I don’t care if they’re a cook the captain and artillery guy or whatever that deserve some respect being in the military is a team effort anybody deserves deserves respect for helping to defend their country by the way we all love Australia here across the pond in the United States of America God bless and it’s always greetings from the state of Kentucky!
Pewter Trident😂....I'm rolling...thanks Don...wow this guy is all over the map

My brother was an OS3 in the 80s.He chose that job because it would transfer to SEALs.After being in for a bit he decided he did not want to make a career of it.He did serve on a strike destroyer hunting russian subs and was good at it.He is proud of his service and the job he did .He has been asked if he was a seal and he just laughs and says no.He also severed on security force on the ship.I rekon because he was from Kentucky and knew how to handle basic weapons.lolThe point is be proud of your service no matter what your job was as long as you came out honorably.
All my thanks to your brother. He's a special American to have done all that mind bending stuff with submarines (and more). Your brother seems like a normal minded Veteran in the way you said he responds to others asking him about SEAL experience. He is deeply proud of his time in and we thank him, endlessly.
Well said!! Please thank him for his service! I work with a Marine thats out and in his 30s now. He was just some sort of records clerk, but he's super proud of his service AS HE SHOULD BE! Everyone has a job to make the gears turn. No reason to ficking lie. I love watching assholes like this guy ripped apart. Keep doin the Lords work Don!
a strike destroyer????i spent quite a few years at sea in the navy, and thats a new one.
Bullshit 🤣
@@Heretic84 I really don't know all the things of military service, but why do some of you guys say this is BS? I'm not arguing your comment, I'm just curious of why for my own information. Thanks.
I figured out why Americas adopted Uncle Don is so satisfying to binge watch. It’s because he is so effective at holding people accountable.
Props to Cody for doing his due diligence.
11:45….. didnt realize that pirates actually also attack aircraft carriers. That is impressive offensive capabilities. Respect.
Don's sigh at the end. He knows this stuff will never end. The caller is right Don, dont work at this too hard get some rest also. Big shout out from the UK 🙂 Much respect to you and your wife for what you do. My granpa and grand uncles were in the military during WW2. Granpa would have loved your show for sure.
Don said in a former video he verifies 20-30 fake navy seals every day, unbelievable there is so many fraudulent navy seals.
I served way back in 1974 on board the USS Independence, CV-62 and worked in the Aircraft Intermediate Maintenance Department. It wasn't an exciting job but I enjoyed playing a part in keeping the birds flying. Left the Navy in 1978 as a AZ2, again noting special!
I also served in AIMD. I was on board the USS Enterprise, CVN-65. I was an AX, and I helped keep the fleet safe by making sure the ASW gear was operating correctly (and fixing it when it wasn't). Again, nothing special, but I'll brag about it to anyone who wants to listen. :D. The military isn't full of tier 1 operators. There are regular people who keep the wheels going, so those guys can get the job done. It's a team effort, and anyone who served knows this.
Mark, I got out in 88 as a 2nd class AZ as well, the most excitement I had implementing technical pub changes and scheduling inspections and high time component changes! LOL!!!
Remember the USS Liberty
It was special Mark, and I for one appreciate the fact that you were there doing your job. It's not like they just allow anyone to maintain those insanely expensive aircraft.
Thank you for your service Mark
Thank you all for your service!
I can verify this guy. When I was with the 75th Special Airborne forces team Seal Team 12 ( twice as bad as team 6 ). He was assigned to make sure we had enough cases of ground guides. He was not efficient.
Ground guides. 😂🤣 Memories.
Ground guides. They were so pretty. 🌈🌈🌈🤣😂🤣😂

I was a SEAL for half my life.
Hardest part of my transformation was removing the rear flippers.
But now I identify as a real Man..........a tee
I always wanted to be a seal, then I found out I would have to eat at least 25lb of fish every day.
I was a 'special cases' S.O.B., but nothing of your calibre.
I am shit hot at balancing a ball on my nose though.
I don't like clubbing either.
;)
I was a faucet seal until I started leaking and was replaced. Can't recall the names of any of the other seals I served with.
Atleast he backed down at the end and admitted to the lie, which is more than any of the other fakes have done. I can respect that.
Don you are amazing I was raised up my dad was a marine and mom was in the army. I've lost them both in the last two years thank you for what you do
Mark, you likely have the best upbringing any American could possibly have imho. Your parents were alot more than parents, not many Americans could pull that much honor in life. My condolences, I have lost mine as well. Now I am just a wore out ole paradog pushing 70s. Been blessed with 15 gkids, n two sweet doggers that love me too. God Bless, Ty
I love how Don lets them dig a nice big grave before they're forced to jump in!
Yeah love how he lets them talk on and on acting impressed but his facial expressions for the camera are epic
then he just opens a bag of dog sh*t in their mouths ahahahahah
I'll never understand why these weirdos cant just have pride in what they actually did in the military and have to make shit up like this. I have tons of respect for anyone who served weather it was a guy monitoring a radar screen, the guy cooking the meals or the guy kicking in doors and ZERO respect for anyone who feels the need to lie like this.
Exactly! I had dreams of being a Team guy but ended up finishing as an HM1 and I am proud of the job I did
I will never understand it, knowing damn well you're lying, & for what? Ego? Discount price at your local Ryan's buffet?
I did a job nobody cares about and it wasn't sexy at all. I'm still super proud of it though. I know I did my part to help keep the fleet safe by supporting the Airborne Anti Submarine Warfare platforms. I was an AX (which is now AT - AQ and AX merged into AT in the 90s) and I wouldn't trade it for anything.
Yes, skippy is proud he was a SEAL… but SEAL is valor…. Sorry… claiming SEAL training is valor is as bad as someone claiming they went through SEAL training.
Didn’t know the guys sending me food and bullets when in the jungles of Vietnam but they were my favorite people at times
Cody sounds happy to have made such an incredible friend...great work calling this dude out guys
I was in the Navy from 66-70. I served in Viet Nam for a total of 2years 10 months. My 1st year was aboard an old WWII LST and we ran supplies up and down the Delta. As well as up and down the Coast. My last 10 months I was an Advisor on a Swift Boat. The closest I came to a Seal was when we transported a squad to the Northern part of Phu Quak Island. They humped their way back to the Base.
Vietnam.
I served an engineering apprenticeship back in 1975 to 1979 and I can name probably 15 of the guys that I was serving with. All of the instructors and college lecturers too.
As a former navy nerd I wish people like this would just be honest about their service
Probably sniping spaceships with a Phaser rifle from the bridge of starship Enterprise lol
Actually they have photon toepedos, and faze pistols
I was in the gulf in 1986 forward boiler room USS Semmes

🇺🇸 Don - long time watcher and admirer here - my best to you and Diane - my Dad (deceased) was a Korean War Veteran who served in combat with pride and distinction - THANK YOU, Don, for the outstanding work you do!!! 🇺🇸
i have the up most respect for my father, he was a cook in the navy during the vietnam conflict and he NEVER told me anything other than that, he was a cook, he told me about all the pranks they would do and crossing the equator, they were off shore in viet nam but he NEVER made it sound like he saw any action or even went ashore and i respect the hell out of him for that even more so because i went on to become an infantry marine and seeing how easily guys can twist their boring stories into war stories that they were never apart of just boils my blood. anyone out there who would think about lying to your kids to try and sound like a bad ass or spook them, just keep in mind they will eventually grow up and remember what you said and potentially catch you and which would you rather have....them remembering how yeah maybe your service wasnt as exciting as others but you at least told it straight and kept it honorable OR would you rather have them realizing their father or mother lied about what they did to try and sound more cool than they were.
He just told you he was a cook........he is a hero......he is a great man
Awesome. My Favorite Uncle served 25 years thru Korea and Vietnam. He was a cook/baker. He was Sooooo proud to serve and feed the men. He told -0- stories other than cooking stories. So proud of him. Ur dad too.
My dad never talked about his enlisted service in WWII… I didn’t even know he received a half dozen medals for 35 combat missions until years after his death. He did stay in touch with and met with his bomber group members, which went on to sponsor a B17 that still is flying. (I’m flying on it next week).
WWII was really bad… I served… oddly I just figured out I was deployed with Shipley. When some people say, um… I can’t say what I did, they might actually be telling the truth. Some of what I did was super silly… and I can’t talk about it. This entire thing about stolen valor bothers me… because what they call valor, isn’t valor at all.
Calling a SEAL training pin valor is as silly as calling an Air warfare, Surface warfare, or Submarine warfare pin ‘valor’… It bothers me because by doing it, they are actually committing stolen valor. Calling SEAL trying valor is like calling Marine basic training valor…
I serve my country on the USS Mullinex DD944 as an operations specialist in the CIC better known as combat information center. I was not a Navy seal and highly admire those guys and you’re very great service I’m also proud that I was part of the US military.
I was an MM2, and I knew some OSes, including one OS1 that used to argue philosophy with me. None of the OSes I knew were SOT. And none of them were Seals. I did know a BT2 that tried for BUDS school, but he rang the bell.
@@vbcsalinasapologetics1242 what the fuck are you talking about?
Big woo
@@dominicmolloy561 Exactly. Normal sea service is not a big woo. Normal sailors don't feel the need to claim to be SEALs.
I was on the Inchon lph12 mm in m division 80-84. Thanks for everything you do and have done for this country.
Dad was navy, started out an able seaman and went into officer training, ended up a Lt (later captain), took ship's diver training as well. NEVER talked about his service. Anyone too ready to tell you about their service is likely fake. Go Navy!
Yup !
He ended up an ensign.
Agree. With few exceptions I've noticed the guys who really saw the full horrors rarely talk about it - you usually only find out what they actually went through from third parties, or after they die when old mates talk about them.
@@saljablo2767 It was the Canadian Navy back in the sixties. They used Lt which was subsequently changed to Cpt when they amalgamated the forces.
@@trog.lodyte ahhh Canada. I thought you meant the real navy.
I'm a retired Army tank commander and I remember probably half the guys I went to basic/AIT with in August 1982 through Dec 1982, that's only 5 months. This guy never stepped foot in SEAL school. This is the best way to tell when someone is lying!!
Hell on Wheels brother. 2AD. We had the first M1 Abrams in our motor pool. Were you M60 E5?
@@berlinbear11b18 Yes sir! M60A3 E-5
1st of the 1st Cavalry 1st Regiment of Dragoons
Our unit crest is called "Blackhawks"
Every unit I went to I was placed on the Company Commander's tank for some reason. Except my first unit the first time I went to Germany in '83. It was in Gelnhausen, Germany . "Men of War" they're in the 3rd Armored Division. It was great! Mainly because the Deutsche Mark rate was @2.80 Marks for $1.00!! lol
My paycheck went a long way back then. The second time I went in '87 the Mark rate had tanked. It was around 1.70
Anyways...I had a good time my entire career. I'd do it again in half a heart beat.
I have a mental disorder that makes it difficult to remember certain things but even my self who can’t remember where he put us wallet/keys/phone every hr remembers the names of several dozen people I served with.
@@bigbobvub wish I was near you. We would have bratwurst lunch once a week and chat. I was 2/7 Cav 11B we paired and shared our motorpool with 2AD. I drove deuce 1/2 then M113 then M577 command center APC. That's the tall version APC. Then like you, off to Germany, they said pigtown but it changed and they sent me to Berlin. I had no idea it was 110 miles behind iron curtain. 82/83. I was given the job of ammo sgt for one if the 3 infantry battalions. Like you, I would do it again in a heartbeat.
He must have learned that the ship he saw in Top Gun was the Enterprise. I bet he knew Goose and went to his funeral.
I'm a real army cook. None of the phonies could hang with me. 😂
You can cook my burgers anytime.
When you were "Under Siege" I bet you killed every attacker and saved the stripper in distress.
I dismembered many a chicken, and cleaned up well. Gold medals all around.
@@intricateinc8566 I never failed a PT test I'll tell you that.
@@un-trackable5705 A Pork tenderloin test?
lol I joke
Before I pass from this earth I want to take a trip up there and see all great things you do for our warriors. I've never served but my father did. Youre a great man...your family is a blessing. Thank you
When you throw bait and they just run with it 🤣🤣🤣
He has gotten good at letting them talk first. First rule in interrogation is be their friend and earn their trust,
Then pull their entire world out from under their feet all at once with everything they have given you.

Don's, "Oh, my!" A true badass feigning being overwhelmed: Classic!
A pewter trident!!!???
yeah, and a Papier-mâché diving suit
Senior you are upholding the honor of the United States Navy. Thank you.
I was a security policeman in the USAF in the 1990's. I killed dozens of donuts and crushed the hell out of naps during mid-shifts. I would also gather intelligence on the location of the LT and Flight Sgt to combat against possible Article 15's for snoozing on post. Stateside in the 1990's wasn't real service. TDYs to Saudi was a different thing
My little brother was an SP in the Reserves from 86 to about 93,assigned to the KC-135 Refueling Wing at Mather AFB. He was in Desert Shield/Storm…while his was one of the first AF units to be on the ground in the Gulf War, much of what you shared he has partaken in as well🤣. You cracked me up! Thanks for your service and sacrifice and stay safe! Best Regards, Shawn
I was an f-16 crew chief...nosepicker and tire kicker in the early 80s...we had it made in the shade,looking back it was more like a long vacation
John Baxster 🤦🏻♂️🤣🤣
Off and On SEAL? I know a “Special Forces Sniper and as far as I understand your all in or nothing. I haven’t served and have all the upmost respect for all that have. It’s an honor to know such good people have put in everything so I can enjoy the freedom I have today. Thank you Don Shipley and all of those who make our lives what they are today!
THE SEALS NATIONAL GUARD!!!! 😂 😆
Hi Don,
Outside of embarrassing and shaming these guys is there anything legally that can be done. These guys need to be fined thousands to be made an example of, with the money going to real vets that need the help. What you do is outstanding, thank you and keep up the good fight……
Unless they use the information for monetary gain (of any kind), then it’s protected under the 1st amendment…
Personally I think that should be changed, but then it would require very specific language (otherwise: one could make a case that lying should be illegal).
I love when they were in classes don taught supposedly or missions he was on and they say they dont remember who their teacher was and hes like that was me
😭😭😂😂👍
Ive been a chef all my life. College educated, french trained . Im.proud to have served alot of people lm.also proud to say i never had to hurt anyone. Im also proud of the people who.protect us. Especially seals. Go get em Don
This is probably my favorite video so far, the guy got called out by a civilian. That's hilarious, numbnuts was actually a ship rag on a boat. You never hear of cooks, supply, admin or support but everyone was a delta ranger seal.
Don and his hair are a national treasure
As a 33 year old with a reseating hairline i envy Don 😂
Bless you Don Shipley. I love watching you go to work. Love from Australia 🇦🇺
Don is truly a natural treasure.. “ Carry on shipmate”
These make me happy, mad and sad all at once. Thanks for the content and thanks for your service. My grandfathers(and grandmothers) served in WWII and were lucky enough to die of natural causes. I know they never forgot the sacrifices others made for them to live long lives. Stealing valor makes you a joke of a human.
Well… the guy did serve in the military…
A SEAL training pin isn’t valor. In fact no training or rate is ‘valor’ .
Valor is given as a distinction for an award. The award can be an achievement medal with a V for valor….
It probably would never happen, and that is why a CNO killed himself. He had a false claim of a valor award.
A claim of ‘Stealing valor’ for something that doesn’t represent valor, is just as bad as stealing valor.
You are representing something as valor, when it doesn’t. A SEAL pin or training has nothing to do with valor.
Well Don classified it as stolen valor. I appreciate all of the facts you presented and I realize the guy served in the Navy, that dude
@@jopsball-turret6969 and that is the real lie here… the lie is that a training pin stands for valor. It doesn’t.
So, the real person guilty of stolen valor… is Shipley., by pretending a training pin stands for valor.
I've been watching for a fair while. I have never served a day in the military, as I never met the requirements, but I have the utmost respect for those that do. Nowadays in my job, if someone says they were in the military, in the UK, they should have a red book, so I ask for that and verify with the MOD under a FOIA request....so far, I've caught 2 people in 2 years trying to gain employment with fake service on their records. Not a felony or a crime in the UK, however, when it happens, their name goes on to our parent companies records as a never to hire...which sucks for them as the parent company has quite a large chain of hotels, bars, pubs, etc in the UK.
I remember the people I worked with at a grocery story ten years ago and I know if I was a special forces operator in the US Navy, I would remember the names even more clearly of those I served with. I will say my life isn’t flashy but I have enough respect for myself to NEVER make up serving in any armed forces.
I was an OS2 in the Persian gulf 3 tours from '81 to '85 and we never did any de-mining as I recall. We ran radar picket stations up north of Bahrain rotating with other DDG's in and out.
I'd love to have a beer with you Don! Reg Army, 12b Airborne 2012-2016
You’ve got ice in your veins Don! Thanks for your service
I in Iraq in 2007. I oversaw the treatment of some wounded Seals. The only way we knew they were Seals was because their lead quietly told us. They would not let us transfer them to the next echelon of treatment. After we finished removing the shrapnel form the belly of one of them, once he woke up, they were gone.
Don... We got another one here...
@@leevancleef451 ???? he didnt claim anything?
@@clutch_moves Exactly
@@leevancleef451 I was the Superintendent of the 447 EMEDS on Sather AB, Baghdad. Smartass.
You're a GREAT guy Mr. Shipley!!! Thank you for your service good Sir
I served under Captain Morgan during the bar runs in the early 2000's . No purple hearts but a couple purple eyes. Couple navy crossword puzzles.
Wow an army navy seal pilot. Shooo busy busy guy
I was an OS in the Navy. It can be a stressful job depending on what you do. Granted it is no special operator or tactical job though. I've been watching this channel and your previous channel for years and what is disturbing is how many of these guys seem to be the OS rating. I think the big Harley mechanic in Louisiana was an OS. It's really a rating that you can move up fairly well in. 6 years as an OS3 tells me there was a little issue there. No matter what just be proud of your service and what you did. Not everyone will do that.
Just look at the people you run into online. LOL
I just posted about the same response as you. OSs have a pretty freaking cool job as far as Navy jobs go. Why can't these knuckleheads see that?
@@wreckeur9974, No offense to Rhetty up there. But on my first ship we had nicknames for some of the rates. An OS was an " oscillating shithead". I'm on Rhetty's channel and watch all his videos and that nickname does not apply to Rhetty. You should check out his channel. Good videos and he interacts with those who make comments. He's a good man, even though he was an OS and not a GMG. LOL
@@samuelschick8813 Small world huh? I've watched Senior for years and love what he does.
@@wreckeur9974 These scumbuckets tarnish the seals, the OS rating and the Navy all in one.
I never served but I ran into a guy at the dog beach once. We started chatting while our dogs ran around. Cant remember exactly how it came up but the guy said he was an ex SEAL and named places where he saw action. I have lots of family in the service so my natural reaction was to shake his hand thank him for his service. When I did that though, it caught the guy a little off guard and that stuck with me. When I got back to my car, it hit me that he was slightly older than me and all the places he had been were hot spots in the 80's which would have made in about 10 years old, so it was all a lie. 10 years later I still think about it and it still pisses me off that I shook that assholes hand....
When they act like they can't hear you they are not telling the truth.
Mr.Shipley you are my Heroe
Don Shipley for Congress !!
I can't tell you how much I appreciate you guys who put it on the line for us here at home. I never served anything but Prison sentences, I know how that sounds but that is how I heard of navy seals in the first place, read Roy Boehm and Richard Marcinko books, in a way I was inspired to be a better person, because of those guys fortitude and toughness. Mr Shipley, would it be alright if you mention those guys and what you think about them sometime? Thanks for your service 🇺🇲
Deiney: "I was off and on." "Management and service medals 🏅 👌"
Senior Chief: "What's off and on???"
My Lord yet ANOTHER gift to national security... Don, what you said in the very beginning about what gives you the motivation 💯 to do expose fakes and that there is what makes You a decent human being.
Don Shipley laying the smack down as to be expected! lol.
Thank you for your past service and for this service . As the family of a combat vet of the Vietnam era I hate people pretending and lying about their service and the ones who never served at all piss me more than anything !!! God Bless you and your family Don !!
Once again, thanks to you and Diane for all you do. The more the word gets out there to the phony Seal community (sad that something like that exists) I hope it forces them under ground where the lying bastards belong.
I was thinking the same thing "Phony seal community" sad but true.
See the MM propellor by your screen name. MM1(SW) here. Did a tour on enterprise. 89-90 world cruise was fantastic. Don's a great guy for doing this. It kills me how easy it is for people to make up these stories. Fair winds and following seas machinist mate
@@bellabonnie3141 Thank you. I was on the USS Robison DDG 12 from 85 to 88. Tiny ship compared to a carrier. Saw the world on that ship.
The "How do you know that?" when you ask him if he was never in Class 124 haha the truth slips out, these dudes can't help but give themselves up. Great work Don, you and your son DJ are American Heroes! (even though I know you two wouldn't give yourselves that title, us civies will gladly ✊)
I notice when he peels back the first layer of the lie,it all begins to fall apart miserably.
Heros come in many different forms shapes, sizes, occupations etc.. but Don Shipley my brother you are the ultimate hero in my book. I love the air you breathe...
