I am a Currahee - was just down the road in Habbaniyah one cycle earlier (we were relieved by 1/110 from 2 BCT 28 ID). Per our BN TOC log we had about 10 contacts per day for our BN. Like most combat veterans I could give a shit less what anyone thinks about me or my time in service as long as I have the respect of the men I served with. As Jocko points out , there is pretty significant documentation regarding everything that happened. Anytime potential civilians were killed we were independently investigated by Navy CID. I’ve listened to Jockos podcasts for years and the depictions of combat in that part of Iraq ring true for me - that is one of the reasons I listen , because sometimes other people can better articulate your own experiences and feelings than you are able to yourself.

“Independently investigated” does not equal CID (a trash organization) going outside the wire and actually doing their job. I guarantee Marines and Seals weren’t out getting SSI, and actual BDA on every, single, “target” Chris Kyle prosecuted. There aren’t enough drop guns to cover up what some of these clowns were doing in theater back then.

[@coyoteunclean]

As a former Bn Asst OpsO in 2004 in Al Asad, and a Co Cmdr in 2005/6 in Fallujah, this is a precise description of what I saw. I know a whole buncha guys from 3/7 who was in Ramadi at that time. Our SJA took statements and logged every contact in that Fallujah deployment. It was force protection. (BTW, I do remember a Seal Team coming and detaining the wife of a bad guy in Spring '06 in Fallujah. No coordination with my battalion ahead of time. Only reason why I knew they were there is that 8th Marines denied my illum mission out in support of a Plt COP in Amariyah because little birds were in the air space. Detaining a female set my effects campaign with the Muhktars back six months.) Well told, sir.

@@Taydutt13 it is hard to hear Marcus Lutrell, Jocko, Chris Kyle, Rob O’Neill and a couple others I’m forgetting get called out by a member of their own community, and be accused of serious misconduct or lying. Especially because we look up to these guys and consume their content and ideology and in some cases buy their products. Idk if any of it is true. I’d have no way of knowing. But it doesn’t seem like Eric Deming is lying. The “facts” Brent Tucker lays out don’t seem like bullshit to me. All I’m saying is I hope these things are not true and maybe just a misunderstanding of some kind.

Jocko, thank you for your service... Thank you for taking the time to explain your opinion of the difficult tasks, decisions, problems, & perspective of your time in Iraq. Remembering the over 3615 + Casualties we lost in Iraq, per last released intel, CORRECTION: As of 2006, over 17,381 troops were wounded, treated in the BAGHDAD ER 86th CSH, including Navy Seals, Marines, all service branches. Remembering Elite Rangers Sgt. Ricardo Barraza-24, Sgt. Dale G.M. Brehm-23 (3rd deployments) 2nd/75th Infantry, they were the 119th, 120th members since 3/19/2003 to die in Irag in Ramadi. Prayers and love to all the families who lost a loved one and healing to all, especially the Disabled American Veterans who have to face severe hardships for the rest of their lives, as well as the large number of homeless Veterans that suffer on the streets of our nation today. A prayer for healing to all military branches involved, including the Rangers, Marines, the Seals, Green Berets, and SOF community, and a request to love each other, forgive and let go of criticism. (Save that for the politicians). 20 years is too long to hang on to resentment in any form. It kills your spirit. Just let it go....and be a family. None of us are without flaw.. Love you all.❤️

Duty and Dishonor: The Marines Revelation of Task Unit Bruiser. Jocko's past

[@orcanimal]

The guy has no credible allegations whatsoever. All he says is "everybody knew XYZ", providing only the most vague outlandish accusations with zero evidence or corroboration, and painting highly complex processes as super straightforward and casual. It's simply not possible for things to have occured the way he describes them. Maybe there's some truth to what he's saying, I don't know 'cause I wasn't there, but the way he presents things is unbelievably bad faith. There's always nuance to things, ESPECIALLY such high pressure situations, and for him to present things as super simple/straightforward is painfully biased. And let's not forget this guy tried to imply that Seth Stone's death was intentional... The guy is a clear scumbag, and he pretends like he's doing this shit "for the good of the teams"... it seems quite clear there's an agenda to try and stain Jocko... I wonder why...

[@budgibson185]

Hey brother so I’m curious if you were in Ramadi with them. I have been browsing these comments and guys claiming they were there and Deming is telling the truth (not clear which part of what he said they’re referring to though) but from my experience in Afghanistan it makes no sense. I don’t want to argue something I’m not sure of but the what Jocko says makes a lot of sense. What’s your perspective?

[@ecpeast8515]

Hi brother! & I appreciate the way you’re thinking & yes, I was there with them. Not NSW, but as part of 1 of the 2 Infantry Platoons that took & held COP Falcon. We fell under Bulldog 6, who was at the time CPT. Mike Bajema “Main Gun Bajema” operating out of Combat OutPost Falcon at the corner of Baseline & Route Michigan. Cleared many buildings with them, set up SKT’s to kill AQI, & capturing HVT’s. The enemy we fought was a relentless evil most have never seen - on a never ending basis. To my understanding, Ramadi’s AQI would later become what the world knew as ISIS. The brutality was always there, they just rebranded. I have no ideal where Eric So&So is getting these ridiculous claims, but I do wonder why a 27yrs of service Navy guy “Eric” seemed a bit unsure in many of his allegations when he wasn’t giving commentary of material he had no real idea of. It’s been 18yrs since I fought in Ramadi & I’ve NEVER forgotten anything about that hellscape. Never! Somebody should ask Eric if he remembers JUBBA. I bet he doesn’t. Maybe he’s disgruntled, jealous about God knows what, or never had to be absolutely sure “he was going to die today”. Who knows, but the proximity to death & reexamination of this usually forces a man to become more than what he showed up as. Maybe he never got the opportunity to “be tested” in the way young men of yesteryear urn for. No Clue as to what Eric’s incentive is here but time will expose it. Cheers brother & I hope you’re being good to yourself!

I'm going to add something about the Green Beret Chronicles in our high school football team that I had made the choice to not be a part of. For personal reasons. That team Had as much drama as some of the stuff that was brought up on that podcast, from steroids to hard drugs leading to murders and a lot of other things that never got brought up at all. Obviously, these things aren't good, but this is the reality of life. If anyone is going to be held accountable for the war situation, we need to go to the very top and ask if we should have even been in any of those wars at all. The answer is no. We shouldn't have been there. The CIA shouldn't have created a situation to put people willing to do questionable things in the first place. "You want a killer dog, but you don't want that dog to kill. That's not how life works. Anyone who has worked at a corporation knows that there is what happened and there is a politically correct way to describe what happened. So to have some do-gooder come out and say these guys didn't do things the Boy Scout way. But neither was the enemy. If these situations are to be addressed, it needs to start from the top down officially and unofficially. For the known players to the unknown. Hold everyone accountable or hold no one accountable. To be a human that accepts everyone, criminal or not, is very Jesus-like. To live life for the experience is a Zen-like quality. You can't do that if you're being too careful. So who has the proper way of living, Jocko style or the proper Boy Scout ethics.

Loved this podcast episode. I was In ramadi from 04-05. Though my contact experience wasn’t as intense as others’, I definitely got my share

[@0num4]

In Bayji in late '05, we had a month or so where things got bad for us, but this was only a short span during our stay there. Most of the rest of the year, primarily in the Tikrit area, was fairly quiet and mundane. That bad month was where our Rakkasans ⛩⛩⛩took the first three casualties of the brigade that deployment, nearly 20% of our total for the entire year--one small FOB during one month. It could have been worse, but most of the attacks on our base were inaccurate, thankfully, and the IEDs hadn't become sophisticated enough to defeat our best armor...yet (that would come later, unfortunately, with EFPs and more complex devices). All this to say that Bayji and Tikrit were nothing compared to Ramadi at its height. I couldn't fathom what level of hell they went through during the battle of Ramadi.

We are about to enter yet another "summer of love". I for one am against the way Israel is conducting war and inflicting genocide upon a civilian population, and I'm even more disgusted with the way our own politicians in the West behave with Israel, as if they are under some sort of spell.

At about 1 hour and 50 minutes or so in, Jocko talks about guys bragging on him. I can relate. Throughout the years, you get a reputation, and hopefully it's a good one, filled with ethics and morals. Staff used to say to me that the administration wouldn't "mess" with me. I'd have to correct them right away.. letting them know that oh, yeah they'll mess with me, if I do the wrong thing. Staff would say it in a complimentary way, however I had to remind them that I was no different than they were. Screw up on accident, be ready to answer with honesty. Screw up intentionally? You're done.

[@michaelthechimp7736]

The old poem. When we practice to deceive, oh what a tangled web we weave. So human nature is what it is. Eric Deming has been talking and honestly making sense. Why have the silent warriors been getting rich the past several years? It made no sense to me when Kyle came out with a book under this code of silent humility. Is it possible nothing is ever as it seems?

Was stationed in Fallujah an Al Asad and Al Walid FOB in Iraq. Each was night an day compared to each other. Ran IED sweeps,Convoy security, patrols of the MSRs. We ran to just about every base mentioned here. Ill never forget Route Michigan an Mobile. We mostly got mortered in Fallujah an in Al Asad it was so big they barely reach the inner perimeter. But on the road it was only IEDs. On The Fob our mission was to train the Iraqi Police force an work along side the Iraqi. Border patrol. That was a whole different experience on its own.

[@follow0siris255]

I agree that he and other members of the popular SEAL community should probably address to some degree what Eric Deming and Brent Tucker have said. The things being said and alleged are not insignificant and if they are true then it is a bit of a disappointment to us as fans of these people especially when they build a brand on integrity and honesty and brotherhood and then profit from said brands. For those interested in looking further into this check out Eric Deming’s interview with not only Brent Tucker (which is the main chunk of accusations and information) but also The Green Beret Chronicle podcast with Eric Deming. The later goes into Jockos info more substantially.

[@mattblatti7936]

I really dont have a dog in the fight, i like Jocko but ill never meet him, so it really doesnt matter. But, just a few reasons why i think Deming is full of shit. 1. Hes been out since 2016 or 17, he could have called Jocko out long before now. 2. The Marine account i heard from Deming was not named and used autobot to tell the story. 3. Jocko has had more Seals on then just team mates and they all hold high regards for him, unless hes gonna say all the Seals Jocko has had on are bullshit Seals. 4. Jockos got alot of love from Marines from what ive seen, pretty sure Marines would have called him out long ago. Marines at least the ones i know dont normally pussyfoot around. What has Deming do for society after he got out??? Think he just jealous. But, thats just my opinion! Its still America for now, so think what you like.

[@renewed6250]

I think it is in between. I think something like this will be the reality: Jocko allowed for some corruption or not approved action - and/or was not able to control it Some people on his team were total POS Deming dislikes the negative seal culture Deming has long sought to call it out and get it forced to change Deming also seems to have some sort of beef after getting out - not sure what about though Deming sees seals getting money and fame and attention by riding the seal brand (which is 100%, true. even for Jocko, although he does it at least semi-honorably in my view) Deming seeks to call out all of the famous ones I do find the transition from commander of TU to training a little odd, especially with no promotion coming with any of it -reeks of "put this guy somewhere that he can do as little harm as possible". But all of that, is conjecture. As far as anyone can tell - this guy simply asked around and found people who had negative things to say. On GB chronicles...he gets cornered on "was there a rule about daytime missions? because sometimes that happens?" and he said "ok I dont know I will give him benefit of the doubt but he still put people in harms way"....ehh, seems not really vetted, his intel. In this thread alone - you can find Marines and other people who were there (At least they claim), who thought Jocko and his team were great. You will also find people who say his team ruined progress and created chaos. Likely, truth is somewhere in between.

Jocko flanking. Genius. Well done. However Jesse Ventura didn’t get knocked out

[@Danlovestrivium]

To be fair, there is a ton of he said - she said involved in that case and there were many witnesses on either side that made declarations opposing each other. There's such a low bar needed in civil suits that it's just easier to let insurance cover it, which it did. The vast majority of the judgement ($1.35M) was overturned in appeals court and the US Supreme court declined to hear the appeal. Kyle's estate paid nothing. But I think it's safe to say that, regardless of whether Kyle punched Ventura or not, based on all we've heard from Jesse, it's not even close to being unbelievable that Jesse said what Kyle accused him of saying. Which would have absolutely deserved a punch in the face.

[@ACLawrence476]

You’re right. Ventura didn’t get punched. No one’s going to tell me that a man the size of Ventura and on blood thinning medication at the time got punched in the face and it didn’t leave him any marks or bruises .

Then, after being confronted about it, Jesse allegedly said the SEALs "deserved to lose a few guys". One SEAL testified in court that he witnessed Jesse saying that the SEALs deserved to lose a few. He testified "It’s something that sticks with you" and that he saw Kyle punch Jesse. Other witnesses had some combination of the three but didn't hear the remark, see the punch and see Jesse fall, they only was one or two of the three.
