Should get John Shrek McPhee on, the sheriff of Baghdad... his interviews on the combat story with Ryan are great. How you interview people It'd be a good one.
totally agree!!
Spoiler alert ⚠!! He is coming on the show.
@@jamesdawson1171 FUUUCK YEAAAAAAAAAAAH
@@jamesdawson1171that’s going to be epic
I went through Sage with Tom and ran into him frequently in 7th. I liked him from the minute I met him and it’s good to see him alive. He talks about being arrogant but he never displayed that at all.
Spent the first half of the 90s doing a regular rotation at a drug surveillance radar site in Colombia as an Air Guard technician. Really remote area. Got to know the Special Forces team guys pretty well. There were 4 assigned to the site for a few months at a time. A few guys were solitary guys who were cool but wouldn’t really interact but most of the guys were really good guys who would spend nights on the veranda with us swapping stories. This guy reminds me of them. Humble when they could’ve been otherwise. They are unique among men. Held in
esteem by other military guys. And I’m
father and brother to combat
decorated Airborne Rangers who I
personally hold in high esteem.
I did that mission in Puerto Maldonado Peru covering along the Amazon River in 99. A couple years later a plane with missionaries was shot down by Peru. I don’t know if that station gave clearance but It put a real sense of seriousness on what, to that point, was more or less a fuck-off mission on a fun trip. That was my last mission to South America. I did SWSC after Peru and rotated Bragg to Afghanistan from 2003 to 2010.

Yeah those were many fun trips. I was way north in Araracuara on the Caqueta river. One of the sites reported that plane. CIA plane followed and gave a halfhearted ok to the Peruvians to shoot it down. That was the end of that. I got out in 97. My brother was a 2nd Battalion Ranger rotating in and out of Afghanistan and Iraq those years. My son led an infantry platoon with the 101st for most of 2015 in Afghanistan. Now I don’t recommend any kid join. Patients running the asylum.
@@jamesmccaughey7754 My son deployed with a Cav unit at Knox and then 173rd to Afghanistan. It was an interesting feeling rotating out as my son was entering country. He did his time and got out and very sadly, I agree. I would be very hesitant to recommend a young man joining right now unless they had incredible focus, discipline and dedication to follow a specific path to upper echelon of Special Ops or to become an aviator or getting Med school out of the deal. The 7th Group dentist and I became good friends. He came in enlisted as 11B, went to dental school and eventually got into maxillofacial surgery all paid by the army. Good man with a plan.
We are all still waiting on Instructor Terry Patstone….and his mustache….!!!
That would be amazing
He’s got to come on here dude is hilarious
@@treytheriot i’ve been commenting for three years already to Shawn to have him on one time he gave me a thumbs up a few years ago, but I still haven’t never seen him as a guest… I think it would be a awesome lighthearted interview, and then they can dive into mission stuff.
I would love to see patstone
Sounds like The Unit takes care of their own above and beyond any possible expectations. Brotherhood for real. Great stuff
All that I can say is Wow!!! I'm so happy that we have you guys on our side
Amazing guest, incredible people. Kevin Holland would be a great person to have on too, being Dev and the Unit, would be a great conversation I think!
That's real pressure and top level accountability getting reviewed week to week.
The way to have the highest standard.
Very rare.
I love watching these videos on your show Shawn. The guys are so humble and down to earth. What's weird is that they don't need to be like that. They could be cocky and arrogant, but they've been through so much in their lives it makes them humble and appreciate life. They are full of gratitude. They are nothing like for example watching social media star Jake Paul shoot off his mouth saying he's bad and tough he is. These guys are mature and have my respect.
I'm loving this. Good stuff!
Please keep doing these phenomenal interviews, they are very informative and quite interesting
Still have that horrible jump cut from SF to Delta.
Can’t imagine getting that high of training and then you leave in the middle when you’re all pumped up and get sent home then lose all that motivation and have tordemotivate yourself and basically start in a different group possibly.
At that level of training which I have no idea what it’s like.
Ugh.
That’s way different than being trained completely with no breaks.
Wonder if the break makes you better at your job having to shift your responsibilities and then get back at it with different people.
It’s like most the stories from these elite soldiers always have an unplanned break in their training.
Jist wondering if that break boosted them to a different level.
Great interview! When he was told to throw chem lights and try to keep up, what was the meaning of throw chem lights?
This is why I'm so glad I was single during my time in SF.
Glad you made it out the other side, thanks. 🙏🕊️
@@lulumoon6942 Thank you.
@@getoffmylawn8986 Thank YOU buddy. 👍
like it- - you should have on more Cold War vets - keeping us safe back in the day
They were wizards. Their superiors, the technology & systems who gave them their orders? Not so much
We took care of each man. Not difficult to understand.
Has he talked to Pat Mac yet? He'd be another good one. Former Delta
Second this. Love to hear about pat Mac operating jn cold war Berlin
Get the sheriff of Baghdad on
I believe he's been on already
@@rheppelhe hasn’t been on yet. I’m super ready for him to be on tho!
Nah
He's comming on soon, he gave spoiler alert on his insta 😁🥳
Shrek!!!!!
Your show is it
Man I can't wait for each episode that comes out. Thanks for your service go Army
It reminds me of Joe Teti's story of ground branch. Can you have him on?
spooner they knew you were a certified bad ass they had no plan of firing you.
It would seem these guys would know that families and special forces are not a good combination. There comes a time when a guy is too old to be in the teams, that’s the time to do the family thing, if that is what you want (confirmed batchelor here).
PUT JAKE ZWEIG ON!!!!! HE’S A SAVAGE AND HILARIOUS!!!!💪💪💪🫡
Mmmkaaaaayyyyyyyy
@@jbird4165 🤣🤣🤣🤣
@@jbird4165yuuup! 😂
Love the channel!
Love your shows
Patstone
War wizards? Of course we were.
Get John "Shrek" McFee on.
Also, I'm sure the women of South America helped...
They are first cousins
Eugenics is a real things
No taesaçes disease or Ashkenazism so who may be wrong in the flower of life
Why did none of them step forward and say
"We are never going to win in Afghanistan"
They know how it works. You can win every battle but you can't win the politics.
Shawn, You're the Man. Wondering if Ukraine could use the Military age men coming into the US. THERE'S Million's
What would your guess be lol
They would not come back alive.
Operation human shield would be good for them.
Imagine this...
Set aside everything else...
All things are possible because you can think it...
You can move at the speed of light from your astral body.
That body jumps into a new one, like the movie avatar... immersion.
You move in this space-time with a body in three directions...
You move in time in three directions...
Jump...
From your highest point moving towards the ground layers of you unfold, until by the time you straightened up, an entire plethora can of whoop ass is opened...
Are you one of us?
No, I'm not gamer.
Honest answer: not very. But the point is to declare something so special that people being to believe it.

Yep most military bases are in the south😂 I believe the wizards thing generation kill
🎉🎉

Sweat, Personal Motivation, Respect, Admiration and Brotherhood …… few will ever Truly Experience it…. Being part of it up close will Forever Effect your Life and your outlook on Life….🪂 ❤️ 🇺🇸
Worked near SF in Afghanistan. I was not impressed. It was 2008, maybe the good ones were all in Iraq for the surge.....
Lol
Maybe explain why? Anyone can say anything nowadays..
Dumb Question, Special Forces go in and do the Job, Whatever is asked of them, and Leave. What the hell does Professional have to do with it ??????
First clip I've seen. Is Shawn always this poor a host?
He's an insanely good host, actually lets people talk instead of talking over them
Good to hear. The way he seemed to have a lot of trouble even forming a question to ask made me curious.
Dude just look at his numbers…but I caught him from like the very first guests and have been hooked ever since. He has grown a lot and spread into other areas but hey it is what it is…he does epic long interviews so lots of good material out there.
How do you have 1.75 million followers and 68 comments in 10 days ? Just pointing it out - do you even bot “seal” bro ? #wanker
