"Lay the wood" is now an integral part of my vocabulary. Thank you gentlemen

[@clintmerz5727]

I know what u mean😉👍

[@ksumrz]

My high school football coaches always said it lmao.

[@1990Co]

Haha yep love that

[@timjohnson8725]

Give em the Root son.

[@michaelsweeten6009]

That's like the one thing you should not have taken from this discussion

[@jonnyh5858]

This series is fantastic - incredible attention to sense of place and topography during utter chaos. I cannot stop watching these, the narrative perspective is especially engaging. Jock’s “author voice” tone during readings is particularly powerful 👏🏻

[@EdBert]

My personal opinion is that Jocko's been listening to Dan Carlin during his runs.

[@MyName-pl7zn]

I subscribed after the 3 part

[@LegendaryLibrary358]

I know what you mean.

[@Tacit_Tern]

*Jocko Willink is the Reluctant Leader we need.* .....We know you've done enough, but your Nation needs you. 🇺🇸 *2024* 🦅

[@CHINESE_PRIDE]

But would he be tough on China?

[@EdBert]

@@CHINESE_PRIDE No need to get too aggressive with Chy-NAH. They will implode under their own weight and birthrates. Importing 90% of one's "energy" and 75-80% of one's food is not strategically smart, in fact is is not even conscious.

[@sidanx7887]

I’d get behind that

[@bad_covfefe]

Write in Jocko in 2024!

[@2ndHandHero]

The Angel of Mary’s Heights. Dang. A story about that long ago war can still bring a tear to a fella’s eye.

[@ktg401]

Learned more about the Civil War in a few days than I did my entire life in school. Also, can you guys make shirts that say "lay the wood to that ass" lol

[@reyalsnogard8289]

As a dual citizen of both Canada and New Zealand, my birthplace and the country I now live in, respectively. I’m holding out hope for the resilience of Patriotism in your amazing and truly great country. I love this series on your past Civil War, and can only hope that such information will serve to remind anyone in our present day and age, of how abhorrent it is to casually suggest such a possibility again. The Sargent Kirkland story literally brought tears to my eyes, Amazing ! Thank you both for your service to your country, and by extension, to all of those around the World, who have benefited from your own personal efforts and sacrifices. I love your Great Constitutional Republic, most especially your 1st and 2nd amendments. May America Always be Great 👍 🇺🇸

[@misterbaker9728]

Brother it’s really at great country and pple aren’t at each others throats like they want you to think

[@markusstewart9298]

Gave me chills

[@EdBert]

I had relatives from Ohio and Illinois who fought for the Confederacy, as well as relatives from Texas who are on a memorial for fallen Union. I agree with your wiser words, I suspect you too are on the downside of the ~75 year life span. I fully understand and appreciate the calls for rebellion and revolution, one never loses that fervor. But wiser minds can learn the lessons of history and know the time is not now. The burdens we have in the US are even less than both CN and NZ, so we can only observe, plan, and prepare.

[@harvey1115]

@@EdBert prepare for what?

[@EdBert]

@@harvey1115 Whatever may come, even things you think highly unlikely my brother. Boy Scout motto: "be prepared"

[@annyonny1224]

Great series, yuhknowuduhmean?

[@FFadeaway]

Reflecting on Kirkland and Chamberlains stories and thinking about all those lost in Fredericksburg on this Memorial Day, and of course, all of the other and the men and women who have made the ultimate sacrifice and have been lost in service since. Powerful stuff.

[@236ben1]

Listened to this series 3 times through on Spotify. I now can put a face to the voice. Appreciatechyall! Back to chipping ice #Maine

[@argensurfer1]

Really really appreciate y’all taking your time to out this content out! Thank you

[@EdBert]

I've a general understanding that "laying the wood" to an enemy is not what it sounds like. Knowhatimean?

[@hzardis808menace]

Or maybe it is 😏 haha

[@fawkeeenset]

I am 40 been studying the civil war and battlefielding since I was 5 but Jocko reading Elijah Hunt Rhodes is the coolest thing I’ve ever heard!!!! Thank you gents for telling these stories that now more than ever need to be told

[@1990Co]

I was stationed at Quantico (TBS) it’s cool to hear all these roads and cities I recognize all of them

[@erikmarcusson2322]

Thank you for paying tribute to the hero Sgt. Richard Kirkland. I live near his hometown of Camden where he now rests at Quaker Cemetery today. I've visited there many times. Not far from him also rests Gen. Joseph Kershaw. I'm loving this podcast series you guys are doing. Keep up the awesome work and God bless.

[@andrewpotter4131]

Thank you both .

[@jaredprice2374]

Love the series!!

[@twohorsesinamancostume7606]

It's a bit sad to me that names like Richard Roland Kirkland aren't common household names in our country. Men like that deserve to be remembered until the end of time.

[@inalostaraseri3947]

Just commenting too help the algorithm, but wow where did you find this JD? Hes great an would enjoy seeing him in future podcast. God bless ya Willink

[@rafaelvariaszamora]

“Know what I mean?”

[@kilcar]

Jocko. My great grandfather cpl. David Applegate, 8th Kansas infantry served in the Civil War from 1864 till the end. His photo is on our living room wall. The look in his eyes in the post war photo says it all. He lived untill 1933, and is buried in McCloud, Oklahoma.

[@timjohnson8725]

I looked at maps while listening... Current and battlefield maps..

[@rjoshb]

I had family shooting at each other in the battle of Fredericksburg. Those families married into each other within 20 years of the war. Our daughter is now going to UMW in Fredericksburg and our camper parked and across from the Welcome Center to the Chancellorsville battlefield off Rte. 3. There is so much history in Virginia.

[@seandahl8441]

Burnside didn't use the Corps organisation at Fredericksburg. He used the Grand Divisions system. Slightly smaller than a Corps but bigger than a division

[@hardxcorpsgaming]

Off topic - would love to see a video or two about George C Marshall. The logistics goat.

[@jamesseiter4576]

Brohan's a self-taught Civil War expert with a Southern accent and a West Virginia tattoo on his inner arm. I'll follow this guy. Might learn a better way to lay some wood.

[@thefreeman8791]

The ladies following Hooker around were not groupies. We don’t call groupies hookers today. We call prostitutes hookers because that is what kind of women they are. The Union troops called them “Hooker’s Brigade.” And D.C. being an open point is valid, but Lee needed to be more focused on D.C. at all. It had no strategic value. When Lee invaded PA, it was because he could get food to feed his army, and cities like Harrisburg were strategically more important. Also, I am glad to hear them tell the story of Richard Kirkland. Modern historians have tried to say that it is not true because there is no documentation from the military on either side of it. Also, it is essential to remember that Burnside had given orders to not negotiate a truce. The Confederates tried negotiating a ceasefire to allow the Union troops to get their dead, dying, and injured off the battlefield, but Burnside would not do it.

[@glennwhittington7783]

Great series! I had several ancestors that fought for the South from Georgia, North Carolina, and even from North Florida Calvary.

[@aaronbrown3573]

I live in Delaware and I don't wanna get on 95 either.

[@matthooks5840]

When are you going to pick this up again?

[@wolfofaspen]

Jocko should be USA president.

[@davidhlnda]

I totally get what Jockos saying re water. Even as someone who’s never been anywhere near combat. But ironically, water is ALSO used to ferry troops thru and around fronts…such as McClellans plan to push his troops by river close to Richmond, and of course the Cumberland and Mississippi domination, which probably did as much as anything to deal off southern states and ultimately win the war

[@tunisselby4656]

This dude Jd is popping smoke and bring the wood. Know what I mean?

[@jenx8842]

My favorite color is Blue. They try to set me up with anything and everything, but blue money. I win again.

[@krisn138]

Hooker’s hookers was my favorite part of this episode.

[@sidanx7887]

Given a average stride of 2.5 feet with one foot of space spread throughout separating each row with no other spacing concerns 124,000 solders 4 abreast would be approximately 20.5 miles - this is just stride plus 1 foot only and just men =20.549242424242426 miles exactly Dear god

[@tew-dawg9671]

"Know what I mean"

[@twalker8020]

Jocko doesn't realize most people only have so much "tactical" inside them.

[@tuckerallen3621]

Or you just havnt put yourself to the test🤙🏻

[@Broken_dish]

but if your in the military you should make it your job to have more tactical inside that acorn brain

[@brandimyhren6317]

He does tours of civil war sites ? Would be cool to be on a tour with him seeing these areas and rivers battle grounds. Makes it so real and in our time.

[@SedContraApologia]

What do we gotta do for a Revolutionary War Excursion with JD?

[@phillipsimpson1207]

Know what I mean

[@robliguori6988]

Great job fellas. But please stop calling General Lee Bobby! Your fucking killing me with that. And I’m not even a southern guy 😂

[@appliedtechappliedtechinc8701]

First time since high school I’ve been so interested in history

[@timdepault133]

You can feel the reverence for Jackson. Similar to Grant. “Let’s go, default aggressive.”

[@tal6624]

WJERE THE FUCK IS THE SECOND HALF?

[@youtubeuniversity9098]

Riveting.

[@russelllane7551]

Read company H by Sam Watkins...much better.

[@tuckerallen3621]

Watching this series is what is missing in American schools and just public knowledge. And also, I find it hard to believe Jocko only has 1.6m subs. Smells like false information lol.

[@davidhlnda]

Ya, let’s just hope certain gobs unmentioned (ok deSantis) don’t completely fuck our history classes, as they already threaten to do

[@Chris-mj9vm]

Take a shot whenever he says "you know what I mean"

[@clintmerz5727]

D=F youlwhattamean! Echo, make this shirt happen... pls!😉

[@silverstar4289]

Listened through first segment , and by a few minutes into the second, grew weary. This guy isn’t providing any great and wonderful information, so I stopped listening. These would be good for a person who doesn’t know anything about the United States against the Confederacy, to get a decent foundation.

[@burkebaby]

"Lay the wood" is now an integral part of my vocabulary. Thank you gentlemen

[@stevenmiddleton61]

If I start saying “yaknow what I mean, Ima hunt JD down and Lay the wood.!!!!!!
