    I'm sorry, man. It's rough but still you remember the good times...and the bad. I was 11B and in the Balkans during the early part of the conflict and was regularly patrolling areas bombed out and strafed by A10 support. The Depleted Uranium contamination was very high in those areas. As such, illness and cancer are disproportionately high for members in my Task Force. The first "after deployment" casualty was my doc. He had brain cancer caused by DU exposure and passed away about 2 years afterward. He was 26, married and 2 kids. Since then there have been numerous other deaths in my Task Force. The most recent was January of this year, the same week that my cancer surgery was scheduled at the Wilmington VA Hospital, caused by DU exposure

    May your good friend rest in peace. My war was Vietnam and I could have never been a sniper. All that long time crawling six inches in 30 minutes I couldn't do. Some place on CZcams there is a video of an old WW ll sniper that shoots a modern sniper rifle at a target 1200 yards away. He fired three shots and made three hits. They drove down to the target and he hit the target three times in the head with a five inch grouping. The head sniper instructor had been his spotter when he took his three shoots, and all he said after each round fired was, hit! He said to put three rounds to the head with his grouping was, well.......(he paused) and then said it was pretty much impossible! I'm sure anyone can find it here on CZcams. Always enjoy your videos.

    My father had a 3rd grade education. He retired as a Master Chief E9 after 24 years. His biggest wish was for one of his sons to NOT go into the military but to get a university education - something he always dreamed of for himself. I did 4 years at UT Austin and graduated with bachelor’s degrees in English and African & African American Studies. My father was very proud of me. Thanks Dad, for everything.

    Carlos Hathcock is my hometown guy.
    I was a 70's kid and stories of him were told at every get together.

    Losing a SeAL during training accidents just plain sucks. No other way to put it. Thanks for sharing this story, S.C. Sorry for the loss of your brother SeAL.

    An old grunt here, but same deal. When I was in I couldn't wait to get out. Once I ETS'd I missed it so much! The comradery. To be in some fucked up situation, and a brother would crack the perfect joke, and everybody got the FUCK on. We stay awake for our brothers, and we fight for our brothers.

    It's hard to do scripts with Don. Especially if you have to look at him. He's always on the verge of busting out laughing and it'd just make me laugh every time I had to look at him and recite a script. 😂

    My condolences from my family and I on your loss! Don't mean to sound cheesy, but a few days ago I was at my local bar, and Lowe and behold two Gentleman Vets appeared in parking lot where I was fixing my scooter! A father and son team so to speak, WWII and Vietnam! I have met and spoke with many vets, but barely do you see two Vets of both wars together! I stood up and took my cap off, put it over my heart and thanked them for their services! They thanked me and asked where to get a good fish lunch! I said " Right there Gentleman" jerking my thumb towards the bar! I bought their first drinks, ha ha sweet tea and cola! They wanted the hard stuff lol! Made my day! Thank you to you and yours for Ya'lls services to our Country👍🙏🇺🇸🐍.... Sincerely, William C. Towns,Jr aka Snake( Family nickname)
