Ravens Part III: Renegade

[@AdrianStuart-o1u]

Another great video Dr. Carter. At a time when there is a proliferation of military 'legacy channels', you have carved out a unique, niche approach and long may it continue. "You want to take a chance?". A fairly benign question to an incredibly hazardous existence in the Ravens. And to then have it complicated further by chain of command issues. Great work.

[@CarterOnConflict]

@@AdrianStuart-o1u Adrian, and you too are conducting ground breaking research and I am greatly anticipating what you reveal to us. Your research findings are cutting edge and I look forward to it. Thank you so much for your channel support.

I greatly appreciate the awesome documentary, interviews and everything you have done for the Hmong people. Every video you create I always watch immediately. As a child of Hmong immigrants, I love learning about every aspect of this time of history and area of this beautiful planet.

@@mryang9738 your reply is heart touching. I really appreciate you watching and commenting, and God Bless you and your family. The Hmong are great Americans! Thank you again.

I just finished reading "The Ravens" for the second time. What an outstanding book about a legendary group of men. Also, its great to see a short clip of the legendary Fred, "Magnet ass" Platt. Thank you so much for making these videos.

[@CarterOnConflict]

@@Rebel-Rouser well thank you for watching and commenting, I think you left a comment before about reading the Ravens. Indeed it is worth a second read! I am glad you enjoy the videos and I hope I have other videos you enjoy as well, share with as many folk as possible :-)

[@tommcclelland119]

My oldest brother (Field W McClelland) was an Air Force supply E-7 would always talk about these brave men. I’m thrilled and thankful to you Dr. Charter for keeping their memories alive. It’s amazing that I’m setting in Colorado watching this video, and it’s jarring soooooo many memories.

[@CarterOnConflict]

Tom, as we talked, we must keep the memories alive - thank you so much for watching, I always enjoy hearing from you.

Good video, really enjoyed it. Interesting subject to me. In 1959 my granddad was the team leader of the first Zorro Team inserted into Laos. They were all Seabees, all volunteered for the mission, which was scouting HCM trail junctions, bridges and the like. Their cover, resort hotel owners. Good stuff!

@@WilliamWallace-l2b William, what some amazing history! God bless your grandfather. My next video is on the first American casualties in Laos. Very interesting video. As always good to hear from you. Thanks for sharing this history.

I remember serving time in the Gulf of Tonkin in '68. At the time we all whole heartedly agreed with our purpose in fighting the North Vietnamese. We were saving the world from communism. We actually thought the government of South Vietnam (which was even more corrupt than America's) was worth our blood and treasure to defend. I thought this for years afterward. Then I learned about the shadow government, the money monopoly that funded wars at will, set up kings and removed kings. Got incredibly rich dealing in arms, drugs and human trafficking, etc. We are now about to change that tyrrany for good.

[@CarterOnConflict]

@@francisbusa1074 Francis, I really do appreciate you sharing your story. And thank you so much for watching and commenting. I wish such a system could change. How is that change going to come about?

[@francisbusa1074]

​@@CarterOnConflict I enjoyed your video,sir. It brought back some memories. To your question, there are many "sleepers" who are loyal to our Constitution who for quite a while have been very strategically placed, infiltrating the deep state, or "the swamp" if you will. These folks occupy strategic places in Military Intel and other positions in government. Some of them have agreed from the outset to appear to be in agreement with those that will shortly be investigated and indicted for treason, sedition or crimes against humanity. This movement has been active at least since October 2017. The immediate purpose for Trump creating Space Force back when he did was to have at his disposal ALL comms of the enemy, both foreign and domestic, available to the "white hats" for the purpose of anticipating their moves and their capabilities, so that effective countermeasures could be put in place. This is why recently the deep state players have been stymied and exposed to public scrutiny and government investigations. This is a process to help the sleeping public to wake up and recognize that on November 3, 2020 a coup, overthrowing a duly elected President took place thru a fraudulent election process. Those who willingly participated will be indicted for treason against the United States. Many others who have participated in other high crimes will be indicted as well. The process of exposures and investigations of these corrupt individuals extends thruout society. Many in Hollywood will be exposed to a shocked, appalled and dismayed public. The Brunson Case will come up again before the Supreme Court. This time the Court will hear it. This exposure of the fraudulence of this so-called administration and of the 2020 election will bring considerable devastation to the deep state players. Again the public will be shocked. There is more to share, but prepare your house to endure some rough times for a short while, as the "good guys" in the military, who stand by their oath, prepare to secure our rightful President's office. They recognize him alone to be the true Commander in Chief. Much of this will play out this year and into the first half of 2025. Be assured that God is with those whom He has raised up for righteous change and restoration. In the end it is actually His Plan.

Another great video about an incredibly brave group of real heroes. Dr. Paul Carter is a true artist. I served in Vietnam along the DMZ as a Senior Battalion Advisor to the South Vietnamese Army 1968 - 1969. I will attest that the Air Force FACs I frequently worked with were among the bravest of the brave and saved my battalion on several occasions. Great video and SEMPER FI SIR!!!! Bill Whorton.

[@CarterOnConflict]

@@Qtip855 well thank you, I am truly honored! Well, this is the first I have heard of them, but that’s not unusual for me. I didn’t know of the Ravens until after I met one. Now…I can research, and will, but can you just give me a quick snapshot, a quick synopsis of their mission, what they were doing?

[@Qtip855]

@@CarterOnConflict the OV-1 Mohawk was a twin engine, two side by side crewed observation and attack aircraft. The last of the US Army fixed wing attack craft. The O-2A Skymaster was a twin engine pusher, pull propeller configuration fielded by the US Airforce as a replacement for the OA-1 Cessnas for FAC Missions. The OV-10 was a twin engine two crewed tandem seated light attack and reconnaissance aircraft field by BOTH the USAF and the USMC. It was even brought back for limited use in GW1. Last but certainly not least the A-1 Sky raider. A Korean War propeller driven Attack craft. Used for escorting helicopters on rescue missions of down pilots. Huge ordnance capacity and Armed with 20mm cannons. I’m 69 yo ex civil air patrol cadet during the Cold War. I’m am one of the deadliest amateur armchair generals on Earth 🤣 I love planes like other people love puppies 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

You have worked with intelligence Paul, you have a deep knowledge of Laos and the Hmong society, maybe give a more thorough backround to Vang Pao.
