They are humans with an inhuman will to be the most savage, ruthless, unstoppable operators on the planet. You can’t just form anyone into that.

    Man these stories take me back to when the Maui Vietnam Vets would come to Molokai and sit around at our canoe shack after canoe practice and they would talk story about their time in country. Being a Vietnam vets wife I never knew what he experienced while he was there. He never talked about his time in Vietnam with me but with the other vets he opened up. He had severe PTSD and drank all the time just so he could get through the day....but listening to the vets helped me understand how much of an impact being there affected him...and it gave me such an immense appreciation for what all of you do for all of us...all the things that makes a huge change in your life...that all of us back in the US never hear about or know about...all of you guys are my hero’s and I have such a huge respect for all of you...thank you just doesnt seem like enough...for all that you have done for all of us!

    Luttrell has some serious PTSD. He is anxious, uncomfortable,he has ticks,he never smiles and seems to be far away in his thoughts. The kid has been thru hell. I would never be able to cope ,if the shit he went thru ,happenned to me. I think I am a pretty damn tough man...but Operation Red Wings was a total clusterfuck.

      in my uninformed opinion, not knowing him personally. i think he would benefit with some therapy, too much going on upstairs. love and forgiveness go a very very very very very long way. get those in your heart and you can eventually let go of things in there that only exist to bring you pain. At least he’s alive and im sure he’s doing his best to make the most of it. but even that’s probably a lot of pressure in and of itself. you are the lone survivor and now you have to tell the story and carry the legacy. lot to hold for 1 man. needs some people around him to help him carry the weight. i’m sure he’ll get there. much love going your way marcus

    Wizard... you all put in the upper Gauley just below Summersville Dam. Last I heard it was the #7 ranked river in the world because it’s so technical. That rock sounds like Shipwreck (for a legit reason) and is seriously undercut. To the left of that rock is the Orange Juicer (enough said). People have stroked the remainder of their lives trying to get out from in front of that thing. The fact that you all got your boat unpinned from that beast is amazing. So, less than 1/2 mile down river is Iron Ring. You all did that in the dark?! HOLY SHIT! Having rafted that river countless times and hearing your story... INSANE. Also, world class climbing over on the New River. The lower New is also a fun rafting trip, but nothing like the upper Gauley.

    I was peacetime army infantry in the 80’s, and I have so much respect for all the special operations forces. They truly are the best and the tip of the spear. God bless them all and their families.

      Watching Marcus it felt like his his best friend and buds from the hillside in Afghanistan were there with him in his mind contributing to his inner conversation. I'm probably full of shit, but it felt like it. I'm so sorry Marcus. Thank you, to all of you including those not present, for all that you've done.

    It's amazing what those Zodiacs can go through and keep floating. I used to survey in one in the civilian world with a little sonar unit hung off the side so we could map rivers, reservoirs, etc. for hydro power companies. Like the Wizard said, when they open up the dam intakes to get more electricity flowing, the water current starts to haul some serious ass, and in the Rockies there's *tons* of fallen trees with sharp broken branches perfect for puncturing. Thankfully, the inflatable tubes on those boats are compartmentalized with inner walls so that if you do lose one section, the other sections will keep on going. We'd be bailing ice-cold water out (a lot of the sites we were on are glacier-fed) with a big ice cream pail trying not to let our electronics get submerged, but the Zodiac would stay afloat until we finished several more hours of sounding.
    When the engine died, though, that's when we were at the full mercy of the river. We lost power and started spinning, going probably 30 knots with zero steering (our one paddle didn't do jack). We were about 600 meters upstream from some rapids and we had no helmets so I got up on the motor and wrapped my legs around it then hung off the side of the craft so I could grab onto the trunk of a tree when we came near the shore. It felt like I was going to get ripped in half, but my co-workers grabbed my legs and we managed to finally haul the thing onto land. My arms were chowder with hunks of bark stuck in them afterwards, but our boss would have probably done worse if we lost all our gear. I know it's nothing compared to the ops and exercises frogmen do, but I have profound respect for you guys who are working in combat conditions with shit like that to deal with. I've heard of being in "the suck," but tactical suit-pooping in an SDV just to *start* your day is on a whole other level. Thank you guys for never quitting.

      Bit I overloaded a zodiac with 9 scuba tanks and the floor went out when we hit a wave off Santa Barbara. All but one chamber went out but it was enough to hang onto while we waited for the CG. Dumbest thing I’ve ever done.

    I gotta say, “story time” with you gentlemen never gets old! Being a firefighter by trade here in the great white north, I have the utmost respect for the service you provided for your country and the service you continue to provide via your excellent content on CZcams. Your series on TCCC is invaluable and crosses platforms into daily civilian life.
    In your 15 years as a SEAL, did you ever have the chance to work alongside any Canadians with JTF2?
    Keep up the excellent work and if you ever head north of the border let me know, would love the opportunity to hear you speak and shake your hand! Cheers
