That is Sturgill f'n Simpson!!

[@MrFidanRecica]

@@paintedpony2935 c'mon now, for the sake of saving up time, it should be Chief Master Sargent of the United States Space force Roger Toberman

[@julieholt7889]

It genuinely brought tears to my eyes to see him bringing such joy and laughter to that base. Military life is depressing and incredibly stressful so this is some much needed medicine.

[@sanitycruzer]

You should stand outside of military recruiting offices and tell those who are thinking about joining the armed forces. Don't forget to tell them; When you're not depressed or stressed on you military base, they send you out to kill people from other countries in unjustified and/or poorly thought-out wars. That should cheer them up.

For the first time in a lonnngg time, this video, for a sweet second, made me feel proud to be an American again. Thanks Stephen

[@bjohnson1085]

Stephen that you and your staff for doing this. I love the beautiful community and diversity and professionalism and warmth of this segment! Thank you to our heroes that watch over us at night!

[@kayladawn]

I could watch this for days! The entire Greenland show!☆☆☆☆☆ The whole thing was absolutely awesome! Funny, interesting, exciting, new, adventurous... absolutely brilliant! So totally needed!!! Thank you thank you thank you thank you thank you!

[@snikpoh3894]

Thank you Stephen and staff for educating us and for helping us appreciate our Space Force members even more. Thank you members of the Space Force and all members of the United States military for allowing us to feel safe at home every day and night. ❤️

[@miahill6864]

OMG Stephen! You truly rock!!! Thank you so much. Many members of my family served and currently are serving in different capacities to our beloved USA so visit remote posts like Thule Air Base to make the general public aware of the sacrifices our arm and science forces do every day brought me to tears of joy. God continue to bless America and all of you. 🥰

[@HairynosedWombat163]

Yes, Stephen and his crew out did themselves with this! Absolutely brilliant, and the Guardians, Awesome!

[@oldnepalihippie]

so sweet. Bob Hope woulda been proud.

[@mee315]

I was stationed there in 1985 when it was under the Space Command! Great series on Thule; brought back a lot of memories.

This whole trip is completely awesome. Thank you for your USO visit, and thanks to all of the Space Force for their fierce service. 🇺🇲

What a funny and interesting bit - we need more Stephen 🤙 and thanks for the brave man and woman serving far away from their families

[@IWannaBeAnArtistToo]

As a Sailor Moon fan it brings me immense joy to hear that the members of the Space Force are called “Guardians” 😂❤❤❤

[@Yvaelle]

I assume they go through the full nude transformation sequence when combat begins, all of them in sequence, it takes a long time.

[@robsonclark9678]

haha, didnt put this together, love it!

[@alpha51omega38]

In the past, the missile silo Air Force teams have been known as the Guardians. In fact I think their in-service magazine was called 'The Guardian',, so this passed on verynaturally to the Space Force .

[@Axolotl_Mischief]

I feel the same, but as a Marvel fan.

[@NikonJax]

Thank you for bringing laughter to our wonderful Service Folk way out yonder! Love the show!!!!

[@guysabol8743]

I do so hope that this fantastic show in Thule brings up your Followers ranks like +2.5 million This was superb and I truly love that "RADAR LOVE".

[@dshepherd107]

Right TF on Stephen! Loved your lyrics for the SF Anthem! Always loved how you & Jon support our soldiers, veterans, & military personnel. You’re good men.

[@veronicam.188]

Ahhh, SOOO many good memories of karaoke at the TOW Club!!! Best 2 tours were at Thule🥲

[@fredceely]

I liked the sarge already, but if he picked "Radar Love," he totally wins whatever contest this was.

[@dshepherd107]

Right.

[@SuperNetSpyder]

That is absolutely amazing.

[@PADS62]

It's my MOST FAVORITE SONG of ALL TIME! My heart skipped a beat when it started! I LOVE COLBERT & CREW! What interesting and fabulous segments/ show! ❤️❣️🤣

I've had a CD with most of the famous Sousa marches that we all know on it. NOW I have lyrics to sing along to the fairly unknown Invincible Eagle' to toss out there to surprise friends. Was awesome to see his program last night with his Thule trip.

[@joannejohnson7006]

Thank you Stephen! That was about your very best. How honored we are to have a Space Force that keeps us, 🎉 safe! This was fantastic and I send my 💯👏🫶🏼 to Greenland and the whole family serving their country and the world (universes too😂 ❤)

My Dad flew for the USAF out of Thule and Goose Bay Labrador. He even helped build the bar in Goose Bay back in the 50's. He would have loved this.

[@paulzisk5174]

Wow goose bay. My dad radio radar on that plane married my mom on his base in Newfoundland after Thule

[@seaninness334]

@@paulzisk5174 Pretty remote in those days. I do see roads on maps (I assume they are paved now. Back then they were just basic logging roads from what my Dad told me) out to Goose Bay and I'm really tempted to go up there and check it out for myself sometime soon.

[@markcool7706]

Love it 😀 thanks for keeping us safe 🙏 God bless 🙌 🙏 💘 Mac

This was so perfect, especially since I have a nostalgia for Thule - I was there the summer of 1979 - really entertaining, thanks!

[@PhobosDynami]

As an air force member (Thule was outs until like 6 months ago), most people did not choose to be there. And the ones who did choose to be there did so to get away from a crap assignment, to get a choice of whatever assignment they wanted, or both.
