2015 Bamako Hotel Attack Delta Force Hostage Rescue Mission

SHAWN RYAN SHOW EP. 041 KYLE MORGAN • Kyle Morgan - Delta Fo...
The invisible scars that Kyle has had to wear for years fighting The War on Terror has weighed heavily on him and his family. This mission was the tipping point that led him down a path of darkness and eventually-healing.
On November 20th, 2015 Kyle responded to an attack at the Radisson Blu Hotel in Bamako, Mali. Two Islamic insurgents stormed the hotel with intentions to kill as many westerners as possible. The two insurgents killed 23 people, including one American.
Kyle, who was alone without any capable SOF fighting force, let alone his brothers (1st SFOD-D members) met the insurgents in a stairway that led to a fierce, hours long gun battle.
Alone and outnumbered, Kyle held the terrorists at bay until a nearby French SOF assault force was able to assist in eliminating the threats. While the standoff would ultimately end with the death of the two terrorists, it wasn’t over for Kyle, who would carry on for several hours clearing and freeing hostages.
Kyle shares with us his vivid memory of this perilous day.
For his actions, Kyle was awarded the Distinguished Service Cross on June 22, 2018. It is the United States Army's second highest military honor.

Hey Shawn , I am no military affiliated in any way but I love my country and envy the fact that you get to meet some of these people , it’s amazing how these individuals don’t realize how much they have done for the lives of every person that has heard of what they have done or had to be saved by them . This is what AMERICAN looks like , this is the unshakeable protector mentality that one could only hope to come close to .

I know guys like Kyle are mythic heroes. But he hardly mentions the 2 DSS Special Agents that were in the stack with him and helped coordinate the op. He only mentioned them at the 12:20 mark (“RSO”) but only as if all they did was coordinate shuttle rides. Was that intentional to respect the anonymity of DSS?

The thing I like about Shawn's podcasts he allows the guests to tell their full stories without interrupting them with a similar situation or something that happened to him. He asks good questions and allows the guests to fully tell their stories. It's almost like a debrief/after action report with the details and insight to their thoughts and actions.

[@LABoyko]

@Adam Price. Could not disagree more. When the guest is struggling to compose a coherent narrative, like this one, the host needs to direct the narrative so it makes sense. Help the guest tell their story when the discourse becomes jumbled.

Looking over his shoulder, the look in his eye, the subtle pauses. Everything. Then he goes on to say, "I gave it all, and I died in that stairwell." That was the bombshell for me. This is hands down my favorite episode and REALLY sheds light on what it means to make a sacrifice. Cheers to you Shawn, and to you Kyle. Absolutely incredible.

Shawn, the greatest feature of men like you and in this case particularly your guest Kyle is that you don't NEED to tell your stories except to one another. The fact that you come here and share it is in obvious relation to your sense of duty - that sense of duty and true mastery of your environment is what is missing from a vast portion of society here in America at this point. Please, at all cost, keep these dialogues going - it is one of the only places that people like my son can see what it means to serve a greater purpose and learn to understand that there is a cost VERY worth paying for the protection of our way of life. God bless you and all who have served with such distinction. A Marine, a retired swat officer and counter-sniper, I feel small in this world watching you both speak and I'm grateful for that.

"I didn't have a pen and paper on me - like a good soldier". That's really funny actually, it's the ONE thing that's really stuck with me from my days in the FDF.

And remember guys - regular pencil, not ink or ballpoint. If it rains, those will run. Jokes aside, this is a really fascinating clip. You can really see it in his entire body when he explains the heavier stuff... he's back there in the moment. He's clearly still processing a lot of that stuff, but it's absolutely terrific that he's sharing and getting it out there. You may be saving this man's life by giving him a forum to vent and clear his head. Take care of each other guys!

Great advice. As a veteran it's good to take advice. I used to think to I could do things all on my own but I realized actually taking time to listen helps so much. I love learning and gaining knowledge. I'm so glad for the pain because if I didn't go through the things I did I wouldn't have learned. I'm so glad I got help after I got out the military cause all the stress I went through as a child made me always on edge and I worried about what people thought of me but after getting help and being around other vets have helped me so much and I realize how important it is to not to isolate myself during all of my free time but take time even if it's one day out the week just taking time to be around vets and listen to others knowledge.

I'm glad you broke these up. I didn't have time to listen to a 5 hour interview. This guy is a machine. SO glad I follow your channel

[@John-ym9ht]

Unbelievable courage and honesty. Great interview! I'm so happy that we have our highly trained special forces.

Amazing podcast, some of that hit deep with me, when you ask how his wife dealt with it etc, shook me, Kyle is a true warrior, and is more so for being so open, its like walking down the street naked, you are alone and vulnerable but he leads the way for others to follow. More of us should talk, more of us should not hide. Thanks for sharing.

Riveting account. Kyle is a force. I appreciate all you’ve done.

[@ChildofYHVH]

What a awesome guy. Words can’t even explain how grateful I am for our service men that do these types of jobs. The horror that he saw that day is unimaginable. God Bless him!!!

[@3vpme2]

These guys are top notch and they’re exactly who we need to be doing the business Thanks

[@ShawnRyanClips]

You’re welcome

[@kingstainuchiha214]

Super grateful for both of you guys and your service

[@kendelvalle8299]

Great interview. Lessons learned. Collective wisdom improved. The great thing about these type of interviews is that they are recorded and young operators will be able to see them when the current crop is gone thirty years from now.

[@jasonhutter7534]

What many people don’t realize is that these guys train as much as any member of a professional sports team. They are not born heroes, but they work and work their asses off to become heroes.

Truth

[@Andrew-bx9tr]

The last thing I was expecting to hear from the delta operator as a battlefield insult is that, "your a bunch of basic ass bitches" but then again in this scenario he could say anything or nothing and be flawlessly badass

[@GeraldSlivka-sm7ts]

Shawn Ryan absolutely LOVES listening to these stories.. Shawn and his team have changed the social media game for the better. Well deserved and earned, continued success my friend!

[@That1ThatHasIt]

Incredible. Shawn, you are bringing the best interviews the public has ever seen. You are a solid interviewer (the best in my opinion) that brings so many of the little known topics to public and it's always great to watch. Keep it up!🤙

[@ShawnRyanClips]

Thank you for the kind words!

[@johncopenhaver4311]

What a unit. This guy needs to have as many children as possible. I haven't been to war but I've fought for my life the violence stays with you. Hopefully he comes to peace with what he had to do.

[@JohnnyLandscape]

War Machine?

[@sendit2873]

THANK YOU to all you guys You too Shawn for these videos you have gave all of us a inside view of the hell and glory all you operators go through thank you for your service

[@user-eg2fh9pj5t]

I will forever keep his term "'That's a tomorrow problem" in mind from here on out. We often get too wrapped up in what-ifs and neglect the task at hand. Most of us will never get to the level of consequences he dealt with, but it doesn't mean the saying is any less valid to all of us. Thank you so much.

[@donlum9128]

The shield guy is a warrior. Hopefully he is physically and mentality ok. He experienced hell. He did his duty and help stop the evil guys.

[@danielpassmore5026]

What a hero. I hope this man is getting the help he needs to process the trauma he is clearly living with. People shouldn’t have to experience this type of shit. Thanks to men like him most of us won’t have to.

[@gmsllc]

Very true. Anyone that lives in neighborhoods where gang fire and cartel wars and terrorists run the streets are in bad spots.

[@JasonBrinkley87]

You can tell he still relives that day every time he thinks or speaks about it. Thank you for your service an sacrifices sir an God Bless You. Cnt say it enough

[@kabaenvironment2537]

God bless all and thank you for your service. Shawn…all the respect for what are you doing with this show 🙏

[@brandonlee9453]

So much respect goes to these men and women who love our country, I miss being around other vets and I recently realized it would be good to surround myself with other vets. I love everyone but I didn't self care myself first so I didn't properly love unconditionally. Thank you for sharing.
