MACV SOG Jim Shorten AKA "The Wild Carrot" well worth a listen!

[@jamesm4252]

A Unique American Patriot , SF Soldier, A Man of Many Skills and Talents, A Professional....

[@leeburkai9830]

I served at CCC from Dec. ‘69 through Nov ‘70. I took the picture of Jim’s “Wild Carrot” 122mm rocket that had landed in the compound at Dak To. At the time I was One Zero of RT Vermont and spent over a month at Dak To during which time the NVA rocketed us with the 122’s for eleven days straight during the siege of Dak Seang (sp). Two of my Yards were severely wounded. I wrote a book in 2000 about my experiences: Soldier’s Heart: An Inquiry of War by Lee Burkins Hey Jim, good to see you alive and well.

Hi Lee it's Jason the interviewer - I showed Jim your message. Drop me an email [e-mail] I told Jim about your bio/doc

[@guccimane623]

You have no idea how cool you are to hundreds of thousands of young men around our country - a certified bad ass. Thank you 🙏

[@interviewswithwarriors]

Jim is a great guy!

[@BlueWaterSTAX]

Indeed. A true patriot

[@ericgibson2079]

Awesome ten day journey Jim. Americas Pacific, Continental, and Appalacian National Trails are world renown. The HoChiMin Trail networks are much the same for the Asian Nations that share it. This is a great area to contribute too for us. Vet. Or leader, anyone helping us with UN National relations. People come from all over the World to backpack these trails. They absolutly love it. The benefits last a lifetime, and theres all the right reasons to do it.

[@nigill7081]

Jim a life well lived, truly an amazing bloke

[@davidworrells7931]

We need men like him thank you for your service

[@craiggagnon4013]

do you know he is a pro kamletoe Harris pedo criminal supporter? Disgusting to see a vet go so dark.

[@roberthubbard5008]

I think Jim found the fountain of youth in his travels or something. Doesn't look like he has aged since the first interview I saw him in a long time ago

[@JumpingJimmyJet]

Thank you. I'm 78 years old ;-)

[@BlueWaterSTAX]

Excellent interview guys. Thanks

[@RobertSantos-rw8dy]

An Insightful interview... cheers mates.

[@jasondamoth757]

Awesome Guys! Love and Respect

[@jamesfaedtke2914]

Awesome show Jason and Jim. Jim can you tell us the best way to find meteorites in the woods? Maybe a magnet stuck on a walking stick?🤔

[@BobTex01]

Tough MF, Dr. James Shorten-Jones.

[@ericgibson2079]

Thanks guys, great interview. Hopefully people learn much from this war. Were in a unique time where Vietnam is able to gain attention. Try and share these interviews. Americans really need to understand what "In God We Trust" means. Under One God... That He is in control and You do share it, what you think, say, and do matters.

[@82ndGrunt]

Bad ass dude

[@bayoustateoutdoors9650]

Glad to see Jim is staying after the election results 😊

[@user-rr4sl2he8m]

Silly question but during those firefights was he wearing ear pro? I a always curious with these Vietnam era spec ops guys not appearing to have hearing damage.

[@jamesporter1123]

I wonder if Mr Horten as a para rescue man would be able to shed any light on the idea that he could have landed on the roof of the WTC towers and opened the doors for a roof top rescue?

@JumpingJimmyJet

[@michaelcarron3418]

Jim, are you current with the shots that you may need before going back into the Jungle?

[@craiggagnon4013]

Always he thought he was super arrogant in his many many talks about the same thing, but ok, he did his part. When he promoted Biden/Harris I lost all respect. He threatened to leave the USA if Trump won, so there is the door MF.

[@adrianmeyer-zw2mx]

Highly unlikely you will be able to achieve a fraction of what Jim has done in his life. Do you think politics dictated who he served with or saved? Very easy to click a few buttons on here for click bait.

Celebrating the United States in Vietnam is like celebrating cancer in a children’s hospital 👍
