[@tylerbrooks134]

There is a lack of standards in conventional support units, but that’s not specific to one branch. There are infantry companies in the national guard that are better trained and disciplined than active duty support units, or were when they were cycling in combat tours. I believe it is more about the MOS than it is the branch. There is more that goes into the character of the soldier or marine than just boot camp, which seems to be where the perception for most civilians stops.

[@KoolPandaz]

SEALS are given a target to capture, kill, or destroy, and they're damn good at doing it. Green Berets are given a few camels, maps, and bags of money, and told to topple a government. When I was a teenager, one of my scout leaders was a former Green Beret. He was maybe 5' 5" tall and well into his 60s. The guy hiked out from the bottom of the Grand Canyon in the middle of the night without a flashlight during a thunderstorm by himself. We had hiked down that same day. A bunch of teenage athletes were exhausted and shivering and he treated the whole experience like a walk in the park.

Notice how the US Dollar index (DXY) actually went up instead of down compared to other currencies, after printing like 25% of the supply in 1 year. They basically created world wide inflation and weaker currencies just buy USD because it's the least risky fiat to hold. I'm pretty sure they knew all that before printing 10.5 trillions of dollars.

Anthony Hernandez. Yes, Semper Fidelis, the motto of the Marine Corps. It’s Latin meaning “Always Faithful” The Marine Corps uses it to say “ Always Faithful to God, Country and Corps”. Abbreviated you’ll see it as “Semper Fi”. Also a common greeting between Marines.

My friend served in Iraq in 2004. He talked about how on base they’d be sitting around talking trying to relax before being sent out, and he said anytime a delta guy would show up that there was an electricity in the air. He said you could feel the presence of greatness unlike any other. They were a different breed of human.

[@bighands69]

Delta have a very specific mission and here is the thing nobody really knows what it is. Only Delta knows exactly what their mission is. And even members of Delta Force do not know what the selection process is. It is so shrouded in mystery that even members do not know. And probably within Delta there are specialized groups that are so clandestined that other members of Delta are unaware. Delta are army special forces.

[@cliffhatcher94]

bighand69 Delta is very impressive and what I like is they are mostly Army but they allow anyone from any branch to try out and serve with them, and I think that diversity and taking the best across the board makes them truly elite.

[@philswift1252]

bighand69 Lol they know what their mission is it’s pretty well documented as is a lot of their selection process. Delta has essentially the same mission set as DEVGRU. The main thing that differs is they have different areas of jurisdiction. For example from when the Iraq war kicked off to about 2006, Delta would carry out operations in Iraq while Team 6 had Afghanistan. Somewhere along the line delta started taking heavy losses so DEVGRU got called in near the end of the war into some blended units. Both units were so similarly trained and capable that they were able to seamlessly mix a bunch of their troops without any issue. This is also why DEVGRU got bin Laden, it was just an issue of experience in the area as they had been operating in the eastern Afghanistan region for several years at that point. You can find all of this information and more in books written by former SEALs and Delta guys. Again, this is all pretty well documented.

[@campbelljarvis2543]

@@bighands69 The selection process is for Delta is if you wanna go you send an email and you'll get one of 3 options. You get an optional brief on those 3 task forces, they're also every branch.

[@GeneralGouda]

Devgru At first I had the reaction that most people would have. I asked how he would’ve known someone was delta. He said delta guys got so much more leniency. He said he’s seen one delta guy walking around base with a cigar and bath robe lol. All those guys know who’s who. He said beards make SF stand out more than anything and civilian clothes. From what he said they’d appear on base for a few days then you wouldn’t see them again. He said they’re also typically really quiet.

[@trustee7327]

My grandpa was drafted straight into the Marines out of high school. He’s always had that tough squared away attitude that they’re known for. His brother went into the army, and they always had that rivalry. But god forbid he heard anyone else dog on another branch. He always was down for the banter, but he’s a firm believer that you can’t hate on anyone who served. I’m glad to see these guys talking up a branch that they weren’t even a part of. It’s one of those little sign of respect that I think is most important in today’s world.

My best friend in HS was an airborne ranger and on his leaves he'd travel up with a few of his boys and the stories you'd hear and the antics they'd start was just awesome to be around. I know the shit he went through to get to that level and I respect special forces so much. Havent seen him in a while he went through a bad bout of alcoholism and got stuff straight and married but he pulled away from all his HS guys saying he'd want to go back to that life if he hung with us too much. I respect for his health and his family he needed to do that but I miss him all the time. Me and his wife will DM a few times a year so I can check in. She knew I was the guy who protected him when he was home and wasnt deployed and when he'd be on a bender who would sit next to his bed checking his breathing and that he wasnt throwing up in bed. Everytime we said goodbye I'd say dont be a hero and he'd reply no promises. To this day those were the last words we said to eachother.

I graduated from the Coast Guard Academy, but I was fortunate enough to spend a semester at the Naval Academy. When I arrived, I was immediately welcomed as a member of the company. While I was there, I understood and experienced the idea of one team. Even during the Army Navy game one of the most intense rivalries in sports it never waned even after the disappointment of Army winning for the first time in 15 years. Since this experience I have always felt a sense of pride and teamwork with everyone who stepped forward and join any branch of the military.

“Of every 100 men they send me, 80 of them are nothing but targets. 10 of them shouldn’t even be here. Of the 10 that are left, 9 of them are real fighters and we love them for they the battle make. Ahhh but 1, 1 of them is a warrior and I must find him for he will bring the others back!” I first heard that in the Police academy in 1997 by Dr. Paul Whitesell. Over the years, as that has stuck with me, I can say that percentage seems to transcend the warrior class and bleeds through almost every profession and even life itself.

Tim you hit the nail on the head, we called it CIDG program that Delta Force is known for. I had the privilege to work with both Devour and Delta Force in Vietnam. My unit was with Special Activities Division (SAD), Intelligence Support Activity (ISA), Joint Communication Unit (JCU) and South Vietnamese PRU collectively we were called the PRU-CIA-MAAG- Mercenaries. We all worked very well together behind enemy lines and under a mile from 20,000 NVA. We had about 50 guys on this base and was often hit by 12 to 1 enemy forces, and was at the last Delta Force battle in the 7 mountains area. At 75 I've been in therapy now for 15 years, they say my facial tic is better.

[@KenjiMapes]

Jocko & Tim are amazing. The represent the Navy Seal & Army Green Berets, respectively, in exemplary fashion. Many civilians don’t realize how hard it is to be a professional soldier, even a “conventional” one. You have to know Army customs & obviously things like drill & ceremony. You must be physically fit & always doing PT. You must know your weapons & enemy weapons & vehicles as you have to know what to shoot & not to shoot. Soldiers must know first aid procedures & things like NBC - nuclear, biological, & chemical weapons & equipment. You have to know a lot & in many jobs you have annual proficiency tests. I was in combat arms, namely tanks. We worked on our tanks a lot & had two tanker skills tests annually called TCGST. We did two gunneries a year where we had to do live fires with our tanks to measure our crew & tank skills. We also spent like half the year in the field playing war whether it was down range at out base or training elsewhere like at NTC or JRTC. The combat arms fall under the conventional troops category but it was far more demanding than say a supply or finance job. Soldiers obviously need administrative things as we can’t fight without food & logistics. Those fields have great soldiers but they don’t have to deal with the physically or mentally demanding training we under go. Also, when you’re training it’s either freezing or hot as hell so you’re pretty much always miserable. Plus you’re always sleep deprived. 4 hours is of straight sleep is a luxury in the field. Anyway, special ops guys take it up another notch. They are training non-stop. It’s a wonder how those guys maintain marriages. We were out in the field so much as a conventional soldier. Obviously it’s worse in war time. I got out right as the war started. Anyway, all the special ops guys are bad ass. Army Rangers, Special Forces & Delta. The Army is unique as it has 3 “sub-branches” or special ops soldier. Navy Seals. Air Force PJs are badass. The Marines have Force Recon & Raiders. The Marines have changes some naming & I am not sure if all their stuff falls under MARSOC now. They’ve been changing some orders of battle, naming conventions, etc. My main point is that Jocko & Tim were special ops & likely went to a lot of specialized schools. Many Army SF guys go to Army diving school so they earn an amphibious capability much like the SEALs. Many SEALs go to Army schools. There is Airborne school & Air Assault school. They earn extra badges to wear on their uniforms. Both Tim & Jocko could be cocky & almost sanctimonious about their designations as special ops soldier so it’s amazing to see them give a shout out to regular Army & Marine troops. Many special ops guys do act in a condescending way as they have superiority complex, which is fine. Most don’t but like any place else in life, you have a group of cocky d-bags. The combat units of Army & Marines are no joke. Many soldiers are hardcore & extreme professionals. Not every badass goes to special operations. Props to Jocko & Tim.

I appreciate the even and wide range of respect here in this video. I am not a military person myself, but I have serious respect for anyone who goes down that path. I often disagree with how governments use the military, but the people themselves, as a whole, all deserve respect. Each branch has their different operations or focus, and without any one of them, the ability for the others to properly and efficiently do their own job becomes seriously impacted. It is a matter of keeping every part of the machine working to its fullest ability so that the machine as a whole can run smoothly.
